00:00Yeah, it makes it easier coming into a team that's on a good run. You can feel like you just hit the ground running straight away.
00:07So, yeah, it's positive.
00:09You know what League Two football is all about, obviously, with the spell that you had at Clyde.
00:13And it just so happens you're going there on Saturday to play against your club that you were involved with last season.
00:19That could be a tasty win for you.
00:20Yeah, looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to it.
00:22I can't wait to see the boys and hopefully get a good result.
00:26Hopefully, that's what I want. I want to start and hopefully prove myself in the full 90 minutes.
00:31I feel ready, so I'm just waiting on the gaffer to make a decision.
00:34Yeah, I'd say that's my best position. I can play off the right, off the left and sometimes even behind the striker.
00:39But I feel most confident on the right.
00:41From the start of the summer, I always knew I was probably going to go out on loan and get some football, first team football.
00:46I still feel I need to be playing regularly.
00:48So, yeah, it's exciting.
00:50What message have you been given by Derek McInnes to you all coming here on loan?
00:54Just to go and show what I can do.
00:56I've got the talent, so I just need to go and learn and prove myself out here.
01:00Yeah, dominating the ball and creating a lot of chances, I feel it suits me.
01:04I just want to keep playing and keep myself in the team.
01:07Well, you created a goal in your first game, obviously, with the equalising goal on Saturday.
01:10That must have been a good feeling.
01:11Yeah, it was. Very good feeling.
01:13That's what I feel I'm good at, getting crosses into the box and creating chances.
01:18So, you'll be counting up the assists, hopefully, in this few months.
01:21You're going to be at Elgin and maybe one or two goals to chip in as well.
01:23That's what I like to do, I like to improve my numbers.
01:25So, hopefully, I'll chip in with the goals and assists.
