Team-mates: Barnet defender Gavin Hoyte

Best mate at the club?

There are four of us who are all really close at the club because we all travel in together from Brentwood. We have a little car squad of me, Curtis Weston, Bondz N’Gala and John Akinde.

Last to buy dinner?

Definitely John Akinde because he is a really tight guy. He looks after himself, I will put it that way.

The FIFA king?

I am going to have to say myself. We have all played a few games of FIFA and I have won the most. I just seem to keep beating everyone!

Worst dressed?

Andy Yiadom. He just does not have any style. I think he just wakes up and puts on anything that is close to him. He constantly turns up for training looking like he has just woken up and rolled out of bed.

The pre-match dressing room DJ?

Shaun Batt. He has got loads of music on his phone and no one complains about his choices, which is good. He takes requests from everyone, too.

The most skilful?

When we are in training, some of the stuff Luke Gambin does is amazing. No-one can get the ball off him.

Late for training?

Sam Muggleton has been late a couple of times to training and games, but he doesn’t live too far away. The boys and I have been late sometimes but that’s the traffic on the M25…

Teacher’s pet?

Andy Yiadom, the captain. He gives Martin Allen a birthday card every year. I think he likes to be the favourite. It is quite funny.

Worst cook?

I’ll go with Elliot Johnson because I don’t think he ever cooks. I’ve certainly never seen him cook – he always gets takeaways.

First on the dance floor?

Graham Stack. We will all be getting the drinks in on a night out and he will head straight to the dance floor.

Most likely to disgrace themselves at the Christmas party?

Unfortunately, that is probably me. I do not know why, but I do silly things all the time. The boys may egg me on a bit.

The worst tattoo?

Aaron McLean has got quite a few tattoos. You can’t really see them, so I could not say which one is the worst, but there is probably a bad one in there somewhere.

Never puts the phone down?

Michael Gash. He is always tweeting now. I think, after winning the player of the month award, he is lapping it up a bit, constantly on his phone checking tweets.

Partial to the sunbed?

I would say Michael Gash needs a couple of sunbeds, but at the moment it is Sam Togwell. He has an all-year tan and is constantly looking bronzed.

Going to make the best manager?

Michael Nelson. The way he is, on and off the pitch, is great. The way he comes across even in training is good. He’s constantly helping out and always in the gym working hard. He talks to everyone. Even when he’s not playing he’s on the sidelines, helping the manager, helping everyone.
