I missed this last week, I've only just seen it: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/16588137.stm If he was struggling to get into the starting line up on a regular basis, that doesn't sound too good. Does anyone know any more about this?
I think it's a positive that they wanted to extend his loan deal, maybe with AJ and Zamora rumored to be leaving maybe he thinks he has a better chance of playing in some games.
