Comminges on target from centre of defence.


Byline: Terry Phillips

MIGUEL Comminges Miguel Comminges (born March 16, 1982 in Les Abymes) is a football defender from Guadeloupe, France. He played for French Ligue 2 club Reims before joining League 1 Swindon Town FC in July 2007.  played out of position as Cardiff City reserves drew 1-1 at Bristol Rovers yesterday and declared: "I am ready to play anywhere for the Bluebirds."

The Guadeloupe international, who has made just one first-team appearance this season, was rewarded for his efforts at centre-half with the Bluebirds' goal.

More often playing at right-back, Comminges has played the last two reserve friendlies at the heart of the defence - something he is more than happy to do to help out the team.

"I'm happy to play wherever the gaffer (Dave Jones

) wants me," said Comminges. "My priority is to train hard and grab every moment of playing time I can.

"Then, when my chance comes I will be ready.

"The gaffer has other options right now and I have no problem with that. I want to play, but I will be patient and work to get back in.

"I must keep working and showing I am ready and willing. I was happy with my goal, of course.

"The way forward opened up for me and I kept going."

"There are no important competitive fixtures for Guadeloupe right now and we are a long way from there," said Comminges.

"It was felt better to give local players a match.

"The fixture was against one of the other islands out there and it was a chance for the coach to see other players.

"There are competitive fixtures coming up in January and hopefully I will be called up then.

"Right now, though, my priority is Cardiff City.

"The team have had outstanding results in the last two matches. Now the aim is to build on those wins.

"I love being a part of this Cardiff City squad."

Former Swindon Town player of the year Comminges, who has made 35 first team appearances for the Bluebirds, has a tough battle to earn a starting spot at full-back right now.

Competition in that area is fierce with Adam Matthews, Mark Kennedy, Kevin McNaughton, Tony Capaldi, Aaron Morris and Paul Quinn all in contention.

Comminges played for Amien and Reims before joining Swindon Town, having moved from Guadeloupe to France with his family at the age of 15. He joined Cardiff during the summer of 2008.

"I knew when I signed for Cardiff competition for places would be tough," said Comminges. "That has not been a surprise. But I believe I can contribute to City's challenge this season and I will continue to make sure I am match fit."
