Crystal Palace boss Neil Warnock expects some loan movement after their Capital One Cup tie with Newcastle United.
Owen Garvan left for Bolton Wanderers last week but the midfielder was never going to feature under the manager, while talk of Paddy McCarthy joining the midfielder under Dougie Freedman has been played down by Warnock.
"I'm sure one or two will be leaving on loan after the Newcastle game," Warnock told the Croydon Advertiser.
"But I want to see them all really if I can in what promises to be a really good game.
We can lend them out for three months but have them back after 28 days.
"And with the international breaks in October and November, they're only going to miss three or four games and then we can have them back at minute's notice.
"At the same time they can keep them fit by playing so I think it's good thing we can do this from now until January.
"If we need them back after month they are then match-fit ready. It's hard when you're playing week in, week out to keep that sharpness."
