Stand up and be counted - Kyle

Kyle Naughton insists there’s no time to dwell on any negatives in the Premier League.

The 25-year-old has made the right-back berth his own in recent weeks, having previously demonstrated his versatility with a series of shifts on the left side of our defensive unit.

But while the frailties of any side are prone to being exposed on such a big stage, Kyle believes there’s only one attitude to have if things don’t always go your team’s way.

“A lot of people say that players might hide if they make a mistake on the pitch,” Kyle assessed.

“But I’m the kind of character that if I make a mistake, I’ll keep going and try to get better.

“There is no hiding place in the Premier League and if you make a mistake you have to pick yourself up and keep going.”

Kyle admitted he’s also thankful for the praise he’s been receiving for some of his performances of late.

“That’s nice to hear as a player and it gives you confidence,” he added.
