Arsenal defender Thomas Cruise has revealed he would gladly go out on loan this season in order to gain some first-team experience. Cruise has made just one senior appearance for the Gunners to date and the 19-year-old would happily go out on loan to further his development. "I'd like to go out on loan this season and get experience, something which would be a big benefit for me," Cruise told the club's official website. "If the chance arises, I'd like to move to a team that likes to play a good passing game. Also, as well as defence, I'd like to play in midfield where you see a lot of the ball and are more involved. "Obviously I'd like to get into the Carling Cup squad but if I don't get that chance, I'll happily go on loan. "Then hopefully when I come back I could get involved in the first team. But I haven't spoken to the manager yet."
