“I accept what happens to me in football and just learn from it,” he said. “A new manager came in and brought in a few new players and I know I wasn’t playing my best and the team was on a bad run, so he had to make changes.
“Obviously Mark Noble came in and did well, so credit to him for that and I think staying up was the main concern last season, which we did.
“As a player you want to play every game so it was frustrating not starting. But I had to accept it and just work hard at getting back in the team.”
Mullins also told whufc.com: “I came on against Man City and have kept my place so the manager is obviously happy with the way I have been performing and I am pleased too so hopefully I can get a good run in the team.”
