We feel we have got a good acquisition to the squad.[LNB]"I have tracked him for quite a while. He's played a lot of games in the Championship and has been greatly admired for his football.[LNB]"He is very good on the ball, can deal with it in tight situations and doesn't give it away cheaply.[LNB]"I think his qualities will embrace the fact that we want to play good football."[LNB]Cork is relishing the challenge that lies ahead.[LNB]He said: "I am very excited about the future after playing in the Championship the last three years with various clubs.[LNB]"It was great experience and hopefully I can now push on in the Premier League.
