Carra offers text advice

Last updated : 12 December 2013 By Adam Bryant

The 20-year-old defender has been first choice left-back in recent weeks, and admits he has had to adapt to the new role.

"He is always texting me to say keep going and to do what I do," he told the official site. "He is always there giving advice.

"I've got to adapt from being a natural right-back to left-back. It's obviously different, from right to left, but it's not that different. You just play your normal game.

"It has been great just to be back in the picture. Last year was disappointing - I played two games, that was all. I was out with a couple of injuries. I'm delighted to be back playing and in the team.

"I hadn't played a Premier League game since last year. You've got to adapt.

"I've done okay in the games and I've adapted to the pace quite well. It's a lot quicker, obviously. It's the best league in the world and the pace is so fast. So you've got to be ready."
