Shorey: Considering future
Nicky Shorey admits he will use his loan move from Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest to put himself in the shop window.
The full-back is well down the pecking order at Villa and it appears he does not figure in Martin O'Neill's long-term plans.
Shorey has struggled to make an impact at Villa Park since his arrival from Reading in 2008 and he is looking forward to playing during his month-long spell at Forest.
"It's a chance to put myself back in the shop window again," said Shorey.
"It's extremely frustrating but the manager makes his decision and you have to get on with it.
"I've learnt a lot at Villa in terms of the other side of football, when you're not playing and feel you should be. I want to enjoy it again at Forest."
