Shirtliff focusing on key areas
Mansfield manager Peter Shirtliff has revealed he will concentrate on strengthening his midfield and defensive options this summer.The Stags last week added John Mullins to their squad after the former Reading full-back agreed a two-year deal, but Shirtliff is still in the market for new faces and is targeting wide players along with a new goalkeeper to provide competition for Jason White.

"I am happy with my strikers but we do need some wide players to supply them," Shirtliff told the Mansfield Chad. "But we really need to get some quality into the club. We have to stop conceding goals so easily.
"I will be working in pre-season on being tighter and defending a bit higher up the pitch. I'm also looking for much more dominance from a keeper in our 18-yard box."
