Agree completely. He was upset when he was initially sent down, but obviously worked hard and did that things he needed to do in order to have a permanent spot with the big club.
Baertschi was a similar story when he was sent down. Didn't perform very well, and had some interviews that were pretty downbeat. When he came back though he looked a ton better as well.
