Shrewsbury Town coach and Academy Director David Longwell has spoke about Tom Flanagan's performances since arriving from Sunderland, ahead of the teams facing off on Good Friday...
INSIDER KNOWLEDGE
"He can give you an idea of their players potentially but obviously there’s a new manager now so things have changed since he was there with Lee Johnson."
PLAYING STYLE
"Every manager is different in terms of how they want to play and what they want to do and the preparation might have changed so he can give us an insight into some of the players, but not much into how they might play just because it’s a new manager with a new idea."
SETTLED
“He’s settled in really well and you can see that in his performances. He’s come into that left centre-back spot and played really well and he’s been in at central centre-back recently as well."
EXPERIENCE
"He’s been a professional for a long time so that transition is easy and he’s got that experience but yeah, he’s fitted in really well.”
