McEachran no regrets over swapping Chelsea for Wigan

Josh McEachran is delighted at linking up with Wigan Athletic on a short-term loan deal from parent club Chelsea to gain some valuable game time. The 21-year-old midfielder told Get West London after seeing Wigan slip to a 1-0 defeat at Queens Park Rangers on Tuesday: "I'm really enjoying it.

"Uwe (Rosler) brought me from Chelsea when I wasn't fit, so for the first couple of weeks I was building up my fitness. I like playing under him because he likes to play the right way.

"If I went to a team that played long ball it wouldn't suit me at all, but Uwe definitely plays the right way and I'm looking forward to the rest of the season."
