Man City keeper Bazunu on Portsmouth move: I just want to play

Manchester City goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu says he's happy with his Portsmouth loan move.

Bazunu admits he wants to be playing regular football.

“My opinion was always game-time, that was most important and it's why I went on loan to Rochdale and now Portsmouth," he explained when asked if he was in a better situation to fellow Irish goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, who is in Liverpool's academy.

“I'm 100 per cent sure that I wouldn't be anywhere near the position I am now without having that backing of games and having that experience and this confidence, just because of the amount of games that I've got under my belt.

“For me, playing games is the most important thing."

“I've not made a decision on [my future] yet, but my priority will always be to try and get as many games as I can because at the end of the day, I don't want to be sitting on the bench, I want to be out playing week in, week out if possible."
