Team-mates: Sheffield Wednesday defender Tom Lees

Best mate at the club?

It’s tough to pick someone, to be fair. There is a big group of us and we all get on very well, so I wouldn’t say that I have a best mate. That’s the sort of person I am. I get on with every type of person in the dressing room.

Last to pay for dinner?

I feel terrible saying this, but I would probably say Jose Semedo. He has a proven track record of not having his wallet when we go out for dinner. He is not just forgetful, it is definitely a tactical one!

Worst dressed?

I’ll probably have to say Marco Matias. He has a lot of tight, spray-on clothing, whether that is jeans, T-shirts and lots of very bright colours. He is not shy with those loud outfits, either. That’s a lot of the time, too, not just when he is off out.

Dressing room DJ?

Barry Bannan usually has his iPod on in the changing rooms. He just goes for lots of different stuff. He will stick a DJ’s mix on, which lasts about an hour and covers the build-up to the game. It doesn’t change much whether we win or lose. It just tends to go on a bit louder if we have won!

Late for training?

Callum McManaman finds it hard to get in on time. He has a long journey and is very rarely on time. Sometimes he is on the train and sometimes in the car. I won’t say where from because it sounds ridiculous! We do have a fines system, which first of all contributes to the Christmas party and then after that to a day out.

Teacher’s pet?

It’s hard not to be controversial, but I will probably say either Sam Hutchinson or Barry Bannan. They are both pretty close to the manager. They seem to be having a lot of chats, one-on- ones. I’ll leave it at that!

First on the dance floor?

It’s definitely not me.  I’m going to say Daniel Pudil, the left-back. It is usually he who is up to something on a night out. Off-the-cuff is probably the best way to describe his moves…

Most likely to disgrace themselves on a Christmas party?

It would be Dan Pudil again, no doubt. He is just a bit crazy. I don’t think he is in control of his body. If there’s something going on, then it’s normally Pudil.

Worst tattoo?

Goalkeeper Joe Wildsmith has one from a lads holiday, which I don’t think was planned or that he will remember getting done. I think Ross Wallace has one on his back that he’s getting removed, which is a bit suspect. Thankfully, I have none, so I can’t fall into that category.

Partial to a sunbed?

Jack Hunt. I would be interested to see his natural skin colour. He has a fairly even tan throughout the year and I don’t think he’s just taking plenty of holidays.

Will be the best manager?

Ross Wallace. He would have the happiest dressing room in the League. He keeps everyone in stitches. I reckon you would have a lot of time off and Ross would be someone you would be very happy to have in control.
