Conor Clarke is the latest in a long line of Tyrone footballers who are happy to play anywhere.

In keeping with O'Neill County tradition, the 21-year-old powerhouse featured at both full back and midfield during the national football league and his adaptability is largely down to his willingness to give 100% no matter what role he's asked to perform.

"You should not expect to get the jersey easily," the Omagh St Enda's clubman told The Belfast Telegraph. "I have played in a few positions during the league and was always delighted just to be in the side.

"I'll be happy to go wherever I am put against Donegal, I don't mind where I play. The hot competition for places is helping to keep us all on our toes.

"With Kyle Coney coming back from injury as well as Stephen [O'Neill] and Peter [Harte] likely to be ready again, this means that competition will be stepped up even further.

"There will definitely be men disappointed when the team is unveiled. But that's what you want as the competition for places is always helpful in bringing about the required team performance.

"We beat Donegal in the league earlier this year but we know that this counts for nothing. They are making it known they fancy a hat-trick of Ulster titles so we will have to remain very focused." Tweet
