Walsall midfielder Richard Taundry has underlined his ambition to become undroppable at Walsall.

The utility player suffered a stuttering end to last season and is determined to prove his versatility.

The Saddlers return for pre-season training in a fortnight and Taundry reckons his ability to slot in anywhere means he will be a valuable asset to boss Chris Hutchings.

He said: “I haven’t got a particular position so I have to move around, but you can look at it as being useful because I can be used all over the pitch.

“When people get injured, that’s where it comes in because you are useful as you can play anywhere.

“I’m not really sure where I prefer to play, I feel comfortable wherever.

“I don’t really mind where I play as long as I’m getting a bit more involved.”

The 20-year-old feels he improved last season, where he made 40 appearances and played in four different positions.

But Taundry was left feeling frustrated at the end of the campaign, after a series of niggling injuries restricted him to just three starts between January and May.

He said: “It was annoying last year. As soon as the gaffer came in I played a few games and then got injured.

“I feel I made progress, I just set myself back a little with the injuries.”
