Walsall midfielder Kris Taylor still has a future at the club according to player-manager Paul Merson.
The 21-year-old was placed on the transfer list before being sent out on loan to Burton Albion, but Merson believes that he could come back a stronger player.
He told the Express & Star: "Nigel Clough asked if he could keep Kris at Burton for another month and I was happy with that.
"Carlisle wanted to take him full-time, but I wouldn't allow that. I think being at Burton is changing him slowly and that could benefit him and us.
"He is playing in central midfield and Nigel says he is doing very well. When he comes back hopefully he will be ready for a game in our team.
"I'm not ready to write him off yet because I still think he could play at this level."
