Sunderland defender Anton Ferdinand has told Steve Bruce he is willing play anywhere as he looks to win his place back.
Ferdinand has become frustrated with his lack of first-team football and, after failing to secure a move away from the Stadium of Light in January, he is now ready to knuckle down and fight for his place.
The former West Ham man's preferred position is in central defence but he says he is willing to slot in anywhere.
"If the gaffer wants me to play left-back, I will do it," He told the Sunderland Echo. "If he wants me to play right wing, I will do it. It has been a very frustrating period for me. I'm used to being one of the focal points of the team, and it has been difficult.
"
These are the things that make you the player you are.
No-one has seen me sulk or walk about saying I should be in the team instead of someone else.
That's not the person I am.
"I give my best to the boys and treat each game the same whether I'm playing or not. It would be unfair on the boys who are playing if I acted any other way.
"
I'm happy to be back now and hopefully I can contribute to the team."
