That's the downside of bringing a loan player in.
He puts himself in ' the shop window'. - it's a two way deal though - if the loan players help us survive it's a win - win for both club & players.
I wouldn't be surprised if Ben finally decides to sign another contract depending on the terms & conditions.
Because he signs a new contract doesn't mean he can't go to a more high profile club at a later date.
Hopefully Ben comes back stronger - first major injury for him so he will have had a difficult time recuperating.
