Aston Villa defender Stephen O’Halloran became the 5th loan player to be at the Liberty Stadium yesterday when he joined on a two month loan spell.<\/p>\n
And Roberto has seen all too often how loan moves can turn into permanent stays after the initial period – highlighting Alan Tate and Leon Britton of the current squad as class examples.<\/p>\n
Both had loan spells at the club during the fight against relegation to the confrence and both have now celebrated almost six years at the club.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the Western Mail, the Swans boss said \u201cPlayers have come here on loan before and made big impacts and I would love to see the ones here now to do the same<\/p>\n
\u201cA loan period can help you understand and get attached to the football club and that can help you enjoy your football and bring out the best in you as a player.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it is good to have that initial short spell that gives the player the chance to see if he likes the way a club works, likes his role in it and to find out if he would like to be part of the club over a longer term. In terms of Stephen, you never can tell \u2013 but you could not rule it out.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
