Houston, a dependable and consistent defender, joined at a crucial time when United was battling to avoid relegation from the top division.
“This move is a fantastic opportunity for me,” he expressed after the transfer was finalized. “When I signed, manager Tommy Docherty mentioned he was looking for a left-footed player for the back line, and I’m more than happy to step in at left-back.”
“I believe playing in this position allows me to showcase my footballing abilities more effectively than when I was in central defense at Brentford. Interestingly, even though United lacks natural left-footed players, there were around seven at Brentford.”
“I aim to bring more balance to United.”
