Wolves midfielder loving loan spell

Wolves midfielder Jed Wallace says he's loving life on loan at Millwall - as Lions striker Lee Gregory hailed the 21-year-old's impact as 'brilliant'.

Wallace moved to the New Den on a 28-day loan deal earlier this month.

He has started all three of Millwall's matches since then, setting up a goal for Gregory in last Sunday's 3-1 win over Port Vale.

And the former Portsmouth man, who moved to Wolves last summer, is revelling in playing a key role in Millwall's 'ideal' attacking formation.

"I'm just enjoying it," he said. "I'm really enjoying playing at The Den, with the atmosphere there. As a footballer I think you've got to thrive under that type of pressure.

"It's ideal. The ball goes up front and (Gregory and Steve Morison) want to get it to the wide players in one-v-ones to get crosses in and that was the case on Sunday.

"Every team has a different style of play. At Wolves it was a bit more intricate whereas here I know I'm getting at the full-back and crossing it and there are two people in the box in Moro and Gregs that are very capable of getting on the end of it.

"My game's all based around goals and assists and it always has been.

"I'm just disappointed I haven't been on the scoresheet. I think it's just that little bit of composure. Every game my quality will improve when I get fitter and sharper."

Wallace is due back at Molineux in early February but has already stated he would be open to staying at Millwall for the rest of the season.

And Gregory, who is 13-goal top scorer for Neil Harris' team, believes Wallace has fitted in perfectly so far.

"He's a good player, Jed," Gregory said. "He's very direct so you know when he gets the ball he's going to be running with it and he's going to be putting balls into the box.

"For me it's about getting into the box and I know the ball is going to be there.

"It depends on what type of player it is (how long it takes to settle). With Jed he's direct so you more or less know straightaway what he's going to do. Jed's come straight in and done brilliantly."
