Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Thu, 09/02/2010 - 11:58

Former Portsmouth captain Marc Wilson is delighted with his move to Stoke City.

Having been relegated with Portsmouth last season the 23-year-old utility player was forced to consider his future and when the Potters expressed an interest he leapt at the chance.

"I was impressed with what Tony had to say from the start," said Wilson.

"He was very positive and it didn't take me long to make my mind up.

"I'd heard West Ham were interested, but I didn't speak to anyone there.

"This is a great club and I couldn't wait to come back to the Premier League because it is every player's ambition to be in the top flight.

"I had a taste of the Premier League last season and I wanted to get back there as soon as possible.

"Leaving Portsmouth was difficult because I've been there for so long, but I wish them well and my aim now is to do my best for Stoke."
