Good Evening Ladies and Gents,
Firstly, apologies for the lack of an article last week, life, work and scouting got in the way. But I will be here each week delivering the updates.
2 weeks worth of updates incoming……..
Teddy Sharman-Lowe (Doncaster Rovers) - Goalkeeper;
Two games for Teddy in recent weeks, a 2-0 loss away to Harrogate and then a 1-1 draw away to MK Dons. Form has stuttered of late for Doncaster, back to back home games this week with a chance to turn their form around.
Ted Curd (Hampton & Richmond) - Goalkeeper;
A narrow FA Cup defeat to Maidstone and a 2-2 draw for Ted in his last couple of games, lots of draws for his side so far this season, takes a slight turn of luck and suddenly they will be right up there in the league. I will keep a close eye on Ted as we have limited info, but the club I am currently scouting for are in the same division.
Eddie Beach (Crawley Town) - Goalkeeper;
Eddie is still reduced to a substitute role currently, BUT the no1’s form has not improved and Crawley have a new manager incoming so that could change everything.
Gaga Slonina (Barnsley) - Goalkeeper;
Gaga has made 10 saves in his last 3 games, with 6 of those being against Man United in that 7-0 hammering, he conceded 7 but made 6 saves so he saved his side a complete embarrassment. They have lost a league game 3-0 to Stevenage and won away at Burton 2-1 in the last couple.
Alfie Gilchrist (Sheffield United) - Right Back;
Alfie is still starting, playing and playing well. started both of the 2 league games recently getting 7.5/10 in both games and playing 83 and 66 minutes in the 2-0 away victory to Hull and the 1-0 home victory against Derby.
Dylan Williams (Burton Albion) - Left Back/Wing Back;
Dylan has played 253 of the last 270 available minutes for Burton, unfortunately Burton are struggling for form with 1 draw and 2 losses in their last 3
Aaron Anselmino (Boca Juniors) - Centre Back;
Only 2 games in the last few weeks for Aaron, he has started one and come off the bench once, a loss and a draw for Boca.
Caleb Wiley (RC Strasbourg) - Left Back/Wing Back;
A minor injury for Caleb has ruled him out of the last 2.
Andrey Santos (RC Strasbourg) - Centre Midfield;
Another couple of top performances from Andrey and another goal, 3 goals in 4 appearances this season and he is averaging 8/10 match ratings in his 4 games so far.
Bashir Humphreys (Burnley) - Centre Back;
Bash started his first game for Burnley in the league away at Leeds, a game that ended 1-0 to his side, which in the last minute of the game he picked up a naive 2nd yellow and saw him sent off, he was suspended for their last game and is now available for selection again.
Lesley Ugochukwu (Southampton) - Holding Midfield;
2 starts and 1 sub appearance for Lesley recently and I have seen Saints fans raving about how well he is playing and how much he suits them. This will be a good spell for him.
Armando Broja (Everton) - Striker;
Still injured.
Kendry Paez (Independiente del Valle) - No.10/Attacker;
kendry is having his workload eased of late, he is still very young so managing his minutes is a necessity. A couple of cameos and 45 mins in the last game since the int’l break.
Estevao Willian (Palmeiras) - Right Winger;
Estevao played and scored in his last game, he has picked up a thigh strain and missed the last match and is due out for the next 2 games, another young player who needs his minutes managed.
Djordje Petrovic - (Strasbourg) - Goalkeeper;
Djordje has played the last 2 since his deadline day move and made 5 saves in 2 games.
Trevoh Chalobah (Crystal Palace) - Centre Back;
Still injured.
Ronnie Stutter (Burton Albion) - Striker;
Still injured.
Leo Castledine (Shrewsbury Town) - Attacking Midfield;
Leo is having a good loan spell, another goal in his most recent game, accompanied by MOTM, he also played really well in the game before.
Just to confirm I am not updating on Raheem Sterling or Kepa Arrizabalaga on purpose.
Thanks for reading.

No need to apologise as life often gets in the way and thanks again as it’s really good to hear what the players in loan are doing.
It's interesting that Trev is injured. Injuries have to impact his value materially.
