Good point, didn't really do my homework there, thought it was for the rest of the season. And that's alot of games for him to hopefully shine in.
Chances are that the loan is probably extendable if all parties are ammenable.
One thing I'm a bit disappointed is that it isnt further away geographically than Rochdale, to take him out of his comfort zone a bit more.
As it is I'd imagine he will commute from home to Rochdale.
Morgan's at the stage where he's going to benefit little to nothing by playing more reserve football whereas League Two football away from home would be a good learning experience in terms of what being a pro outside a top club is like.
One thing I'd be concerned about is how he's going to react to getting kicked about the place by League Two defenders as he can get a bit tetchy on the pitch on occasion.
Rochdale were playing 4-3-3 earlier in the season ( not sure if they still are) so I wouldnt be suprised to see him playing on the right-wing to start.
Game time. Game time. All about him getting time on the pitch.
