had he not been loaned to Swansea, but also that it is more
important for him to play regularly:
"Daniel would have been in the squad for Leeds but it is
important for his development that he gets more competitive
football. He has gone to Swansea, who are towards the top of
their division, so it's the kind of challenge he really
needs.
"We are trying to do this all the time, give young players
the vital experience that Daniel is getting now. We have
David Fox and Colin Heath out at Antwerp, and Ben Williams
has just come back from a month at Altrincham.
"Of course, Luke Chadwick and Michael Stewart are away at
the moment, too. It puts them in an environment where they
can learn, because the Nationwide is a good league. It is
much better for players of their age to play there than in
our reserve team."
