“A player with his experience of the Premier League and with the way he plays it will bring something different. It will be great to have someone like that in and around the changing room.
“He’s got that experience which is hugely valuable. You gain so much from consecutive seasons in the Premier League and with him being at top clubs it will benefit us a lot.”
The former Southampton and Swansea City man believes that the club have now brought in two potential ‘game changers’, with Lennon adding to the capture of Georges-Kevin N’Koudou.

“He’s an attacking player, you need players like him, Johann, Georges and Scotty to make creative moments in the game to make something happen.
“He’s got speed, he’s got tricks, he can get a goal. In tight games he can make the difference.
“You saw what Georges did when he came on; he was sharp and lively and he always looked like he was going to make something happen. Hopefully Aaron will bring something similar.”
