Saddlers supremo calm about Kanu

Daniel Kanu scored for Walsall for the fifth game running yesterday in what was ultimately a 1-1 draw with Shropshire's finest.

But Walsall supremo Mat Sadler is reported to have remained calm about the future of Kanu after Nathan Jones raised the possibility of a recall,

Sadler said: We are looking after Kanu well and they [Charlton] are very pleased with how we are looking after him.  We give everything to loan players when they come to the club and we are a good destination for them.'

'We've got a great relationship with Charlton.'  If Kanu does return to The Valley, it will be the fourth season in a row that the Saddlers have lost their top scorer back to a parent club in January.

A cautionary note: there is a gap between League 2 defences and those in the Championship.
