Walsall boss resumes loan quest

Money will continue his efforts to persuade clubs to part with his top loan targets after seeing his side under-perform at Bournemouth.

But the manager has again insisted he will not settle for sub-standard loan signings and will wait for his prefered players to become available.

Money said: "We will bring in someone, maybe more than one, when the right people are available and when their clubs are willing to let them join us.

"As I said in the week I'm not going to take someone for the sake of it.

"I don't think that would be right because I think we've got some decent players and we've got to show some consistency to our young players.

"Clearly we need a couple of players. We're not silly.

"But they need to be the right ones. I think we have done well in the loan market since I've been here.

"Last year we brought in Tommy Wright at an important time and then we got Kevin Harper, Trevor Benjamin and Kevin Cooper. And this season we have brought Mattis and they have all been successful.

"That is the result if a lot of hard work from Paul Taylor and myself and we do have some targets.

"At the moment their clubs are reluctant to let them come out."

Money was pleased with a point from a game in which his team fell well below their best.

But he was disappointed with the football his defenders played from the back during a first half in which the Saddlers struggled to compete in midfield with the bottom-of-the-table Cherries.

The manager said: "We're very relieved to have come away with a point on a day when we weren't at our best. In fact we were a long way from it.

"But we stuck at it and it is a very valuable point from a match that looked to be getting away from us.

"In the first half we didn't get started at all and I was at a loss to say what I was seeing.

"Last week we played too short and this week we were completely the opposite in the first half.

"But in the second half we started to play a little bit and the changes made a difference.

"Troy Deeney, David McDermott and Paul Hall all came on to good effect and they are good substitutes.

"But I'm not going to pretend to anyone that we're happy with how we played because we're not.

"The midfield couldn't get hold of anything in the first half and it was very disappointing.

"I thought our back players played with very little common sense at all, to be honest.

"That hasn't been like us in recent weeks and we had a few words at half-time and played a bit better in the second half.

"But on the whole that wasn't good enough."
