Shay Given: "He has had a great season at Aston Villa.
"He played some fantastic football when I was at Newcastle with him as well. He's a quality all round player. He has got bags of ability, a great left foot and right foot, so he's a very good talent.
"If he comes to the club great, if he doesn't he has had a great time under Martin O'Neill at Aston Villa.
"I do think we have got a good squad of players now.
"If players want to join the club they will look around the players we have already got here and see that it is a club really going places, and they will like to join that and help move the club forward again.
"I think next season we will be stronger and better. I am sure the manager is working hard to bring in some players over the summer.
"We are a club moving forward, that's for sure. We have got some great players in the squad and everything is set up for success.
"Rome wasn't built in a day but we are building the blocks to be a successful football club and that's where we want to go.
"We finished fifth last season, the highest finish ever for the club in the Premier League, so next season we want to step up to the next level."
