If he's not going to get a chance with us next season Wigan would be an excellent move. I really rate Rösler as a manager.

A good mate of mine who's a Man City supporter thinks that Rosler will be the next of the new generation of managers to make a real impact. He was quite surprised that no-one had linked Rosler to the Spurs job, even if he was only ever going to be an outside bet.

Will be a good move for him, especially with the style of football Wigan try and play. I might try and make it to a few Wigan games next season, not far for me.

would guess our new coach will take alook at ALL our players first then decide who can leave or go on loan and what he needs.
Personally think he might get some game time this season ...last 10mins if winning or in cup games .....HOWEVER he might benefit from playing with a team like wigan for a whole season IF hes going to get more game time and then next season he would or should come back even better...
Don't forget we've got Tom Caroll coming back aswell and can't see the pair of them getting loads of game time so would make sense to loan one of them.

Would be great for the kid to play under Uwe. Wigan's a good club and he'll get great experience there for sure.

He is 21 now, if he is ever going to make it at Spurs, surely he needs to stay here and prove if he is good enough. We don't want another Simon Dawkins on our hands, who seemed to go out on loan until he was 25 and then left for free.

Would have preferred him going on loan to a Wigan team that was in the PL. really wanted them to go up. Can't believe that QPR are back up; totally undeserved.

If he gets lots of game time, Wigan could be a good move for him. And us.

Think he will surprise a lot if people next season if we give him a chance. Good technique, hard working, intelligent, great set piece taker and chips in with goals and assists. Would love to see him given a squad place and establish himself rather than loaned out

Good move for him if, unlike a lot of our loanees, he gets to play regularly
Potentially a good deal for the lad. Whoever our new manager is I don't see Pritchard playing (Europa League aside) and he got rave reviews in league 1 (team of the season, I think). We need that new manager to decide though.

A little off topic but why do the football press keep referring to young players as 'starlet'? Makes them sound like chicks.
