I was in the full-back position,” he continued.”I said a hundred times that I am there for whatever the team needs. I am no stranger to playing in a niche, I have played both full-back and wing-back. Baturin is in good form, he needs to continue like this, he works a lot for the team, he has really improved in the last six months.”
