The powerful defender has played a large proportion of the Latics pre-season campaign and has operated at both centre back and right wing back.
Speaking to the club's official website he revealed he is happy to operate in either position.
“I’m enjoying it yes, it’s a new position at wing back for me this year,” he explained. “I’m still finding my feet, getting used to the role in a new formation but I want to keep whipping the ball in as I have been to create opportunities.
“I felt comfortable in the centre as well; I’ve played in there a couple of times and I really enjoyed it on Tuesday.
“A big part of my game is delivery and if I can stick on the set-pieces then that would be great so hopefully we’ll get a lot more goals when I put them in.”
