Notts County defender Shaun Brisley has claimed that Port Vale's last-minute spending will not have any bearing on the Magpies' tactics ahead of today's League Two meeting at Vale Park.

The Valiants strengthened their ranks with the arrival of Harry Middleton from Doncaster Rovers and Burnley defender Tom Anderson, both expected to make their debuts against Notts.

Brisley told the Nottingham Post: β€œI don’t think it matters who teams sign. When you get out on to the pitch it’s just 11 v 11.

β€œWe’ve just got to focus on ourselves and make sure we do what we are good at. We’ve got a good squad here with such strength in depth.

β€œSo we don’t need to worry about anybody else, we’ve just got to take care of ourselves.”

Brisley also opened up about County's improvements with each passing game and believes things will continue to get better as the season rolls on.

He added: β€œWe’ve started well apart from the opening loss to Coventry. It was a bit of a weird day and we were second best, which is the best way to put it.

β€œBut there was a good reaction from the lads at Scunthorpe and we’ve improved each game as we’ve gone.

β€œHopefully we will carry on and continue to get even better. You can see in the performances each week since Coventry and we are looking a good outfit.”
