Wrexham to relish ‘jeopardy’ of top-six push – Zak Vyner

Vyner was sidelined with a toe injury when he moved to north Wales from Bristol City in the latter stages of the January transfer window.

But he has gone on to feature in seven successive matches across all competitions under Phil Parkinson having made a full recovery.

“It’s one of those injuries that’s going to grumble on a little bit, but I feel really good,” he said.

“I feel like I’m in a place where I can push myself a bit more now and really get around the pitch so I feel good.”

The 28-year-old spent almost two decades with the Robins but felt the mid-season window was the right time to end his long association with the Ashton Gate outfit.

“Obviously it’s a big change, new place, new environment, I had such a long time at one place and then you come away from that,” Vyner commented.

“It’s always going to be difficult at the start just to get your bearings and stuff but I’ve really bedded in and the lads are great, everyone here is great and I’ve been welcomed in really well.

“I think coming into a team where I’ve come in injured and the team’s doing well, so naturally, there’s going to be not much change there.

“But I’ve definitely seen a lot of the competitive spirit, I guess, that has got the club to where it is and the back-to-back-to-back [promotions], you see why that’s happened.

“It’s just a new environment for me to sort of be a sponge in and just take what I can from everyone.

“It’s been a good change, if that makes sense, and it’s been one of those ones where you kind of see, this group is very, very talented.”
