'˜The link-up play is amazing between the two of us and we work well together.
'˜He's been around the leagues a long time. It's good to have an experienced left-back in behind to talk and guide you because I'm still young and it's my first season in League One.
'˜Browny has been a great mate to me.
'˜But I told him not to be afraid to give me a telling off and to get on my back when it's needed. Everyone knows that already.'
