"When I was at Plymouth on loan, I knew I had the ability but never had the chance, making two league starts and 10 as a substitute.
"The manager who brought me in knew I could play but I did not get the opportunity under the new manager.
"However, Denis Smith gave me a chance and I showed what I can do. I really enjoyed it at Wrexham.
