THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>He told <a href="https://rochdaleafc.co.uk/goalkeeper-joins-on-loan/" target="_blank">Rochdale's website</a>: “During the summer I heard word of it and it instantly got me excited. The way the gaffer [Jimmy McNulty] wants to play I think will suit me down the ground. It’s a great opportunity for me to come and play. The club wants to go in the right direction and that was another pull for me. I feel like I’m comfortable on the ball and playing out from the back. I like to make big saves, come for crosses and dominate my box. I think my style of play will suit the team. I want to play as much as possible and get as many games as I can under my belt, and be successful here.”</p><p></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Our new stopper in training 🧤<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/RAFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#RAFC</a> <a href="https://t.co/v7x4GUEgA1">pic.twitter.com/v7x4GUEgA1</a></p>— Rochdale AFC (@officiallydale) <a href="https://twitter.com/officiallydale/status/1813166692219916753?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 16, 2024</a></blockquote>
