I didn't make a mistake in choosing my players

Earlier in the season, PDC sent Billy Bodin out on loan to Torquay.  However, he then brought him back again.  
"I said I didn't want to keep a player who didn't want to stay here.  We knew he was happy at Torquay and could play regular football and I couldn't force a player to stay.   Once it was clear we wanted to keep him, he realised he had a part here. I saw him in a training session and he was really free in his brain so I gave him the opportunity straight away.  He's improved a lot and has become more mature since I arrived here. I had other options but I played him as he can play a part in our run for the title.
I'm happy for him and I'm happy for me because Once again I didn't make a mistake in choosing my players."  


Unlike Leon Clarke then, who was signed on a two year contract on 19th August, and after just four games including the notorious on-pitch and down the tunnel bust-up with PDC, left for Chesterfield on loan on 9th September.
