Max Watters can't wait to get started:
Cardiff striker Max Watters says he's excited to get going for new loan club League 1 Barnsley.
It was confirmed yesterday the forward would be leaving Cardiff City Stadium on a temporary basis in order to get game-time under his belt.
Despite the Bluebirds struggling for goals and under a transfer embargo, it was decided it was best for Watters to move away from south Wales until the end of the season. And he clearly can't wait to get going.
MAX WATTERS:
"I'm really happy to be here," he said. "It's a brilliant club, great staff. I've seen quite a few games, it looks like a good team to play in.
"I've played here a few times against Barnsley - the fans were hard to play against so that's good. It's a tough place to come, I can't wait to get started.
"It's a great club. Great manager, great players - I couldn't have asked for a better team to come to.
"I've watched quite a few games to be honest. A lot of the games are very attacking, a lot of chances to be scored and defensively, really good. I'm really pleased with that.
"Hopefully, I can fit in well. It's obviously going to be tough to get into the team as they're doing well. But hopefully, I can slot in, get along with the players and contribute to the team.
"I'm an out-and-out striker. I love to score goals, to work hard and just contribute as much as I can to the team.
"I look at all the best strikers. That's where the goals come from don't they, in the box, near the goal. They're the easiest to score, and hopefully that's what I can do this season."
It is clear the Tykes were keen on getting Watters' signature on the dotted line, with City manager Mark Hudson saying they were "knocking down the door" to get the striker. And their chief executive said as much too.
"He is a hungry young player with experience across the EFL and we're looking forward to seeing him perform within [head coach] Michael Duff's system," said Khaled El-Ahmad.
"It was important to strengthen the squad as soon as possible and we thank Cardiff City for working with us to get the move over the line."

Said the same thing the last club he went to. 
Having said that he'll probably get a hatful of goals for them.
