He said: “I wish Salford all the best but I don’t envy them and I’m not really surprised at how they are doing.
“I always thought they would struggle with gelling so many new players in. There was always going to be disruption.

“Marwan is a great bloke and is good for the game and genuinely trying to do good things for Salford.
“He’s just impatient, he wants success now which is understandable. But it’s difficult to do and will take time.”

Broughton has the chance to pin down a regular place following injury to Aaron Murphy and he plans to take it.
He said: “I’ve been a bit hit and miss and I have struggled with a niggly ankle injury which is stopping me running at top speed.
“But I’ve finally got the chance to show everyone what I’m capable of and I’m looking forward to finishing the season on a high.”
