Loan Watch 2024/2025

[Sedgley Wolf]

Last week's update later than I'd have liked after a busy week. A couple from today thrown in!

Fabio Silva played 79 minutes of Las Palmas' 3-1 win at Vallecano and opened the scoring after 6 minutes with a fine glancing header off a corner. Used his strength to first win the corner then get in front of the defender for the header. The win lifts LP clear of the relegation zone.

Goal on 50 seconds:

Tyler Roberts played a full game in Fylde's 3-0 win at home to Gateshead and grabbed a goal and assist. The goal was swept home first time following a good move, then Roberts did well to win the ball down the left to set up a team mate for the second.
He also played an hour of today's 1-0 defeat at Braintree before getting sent off for two bookable offences.

Goal around 35 seconds:

Chem Campbell played the full game and got an assist in a 1-1 draw for Reading at Stevenage after some great play holding off a defender down the right. His deflected shot also nearly crept in at the end but the keeper tipped it wide.
Nigel Lonwijk played a full game for Huddersfield in their 2-2 draw at Crawley.

Ki-Jana Hoever played a full game for Auxerre in a fine 3-1 win at Marseille. Hoever played no part in the goals but did put over a peach of a cross that his team mate crashed off the post.

Marvin Kaleta helped Motherwell to their third consecutive win (and a jump up to 5th, 3 points off Rangers) with a fine assist in a full game vs St. Johnstone. He swung over a fine ball to the far post that was nodded in for their first goal in a 3-1 win. Also teed up a team mate for another chance but he could only fire over.

Jimmy Storer played in a 3-1 defeat at Bedworth, but then kept a cleant sheet today in a 1-0 home win.

On as sub: Chiquinho played the last 20 minutes or so of Mallorca's 1-0 defeat at home to Atletico Madrid.
Unused sub: Bueno, Lembikisa, Fraser

I always hate the turnabout when a loaned player does kind of okay in a different league.

3 in 9 in La Liga is not the same as 3 in 9 in the Prem. That’s not to say one is better than the other, but they are not the same.

Directed at that Gruniad snippet really.

I'm sure it must be on another thread, but it's got him into the Portugal national squad. Let the bring him back in the Summer madness begin

 

[Lupo]

Regardless of how well he does out on loan I'm done with him, hopefully he does well enough to get a permanent move. How many times has he been welcomed back into the fold only to look like a half arsed competition winner

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

One, tbf

But that was enough.

More importantly, we can’t let Jeff think he was right. About anything. Ever.

The standard in La Liga is pretty piss poor these days. Two of the top three scorers in the league last season played at the Euros (Dovbyk and Budimir) and both were total dog dirt.

Unal now at Bournemouth scored 20 the season before and he barely gets a game these days (admittedly he's frequently injured).

TBF Silva knocks in a few at the start of each of his loans. He then thinks he's nailed this footballer lark and starts fucking around and the loan peters out. So far he's on the same path.

I wouldn’t get too excited. He’s scored 3 in 9 for the team 16th in the league. So people are getting as excited as they are about his read across in the best league in the history of the universe. Dwight McNeil.

If it gets us a fee for him then I hope he continues to score at that rate!
