The Loan Report

In this week’s Loan Report, Patrick Bamford and Christian Atsu continued the Chelsea loanee goalscoring streak into a 27th consecutive week of the 2013-14 season, but it was a mixed bag elsewhere as a number of familiar names and faces encountered a change of circumstance. Headliners Having scored in four consecutive Derby County matches, it came as something of a disappointment when Bamford failed to score against Queens Park Rangers…

For the second successive week, Croatian midfielder Mario Pašalić netted to extend the unbeaten run of Chelsea loanee goalscoring in the 2013-14 season to a 26th consecutive week, and in doing so made it 90 goals scored by the (current running total of) 30 Blues youngsters away on loan. It was a rare bright moment in a week which was otherwise rather disappointing on a number of levels, so we…

In the latest Loan Report, a pair of young Croatian loanees were responsible for extending the unbroken streak of Chelsea players scoring this season up to a 25th consecutive week. Mario Pašalić and Stipe Perica may not be household names (yet), but they both had good weekends when many of the more recognisable faces didn’t. Headliners Pašalić’s signing hasn’t officially been announced by Chelsea yet, but with all other parties…

A busy last week of the transfer window on the loan front saw Chelsea take their tally of prospects playing elsewhere up to 30, but it was a familiar face in Patrick Bamford that kept the unbroken run of goalscoring weeks up as the Derby man netted twice to headline this week’s action. Headliners Having scored in two of his first three appearances for Derby County as an impact substitute,…

In the latest instalment of The Loan Report, Patrick Bamford continues to embrace the super-sub role at Derby County, whilst Victor Moses took advantage of a rare start for Liverpool to find the back of the net as both men ensured the unbroken streak of loanees scoring in every week of the 2013-14 season rolls on. Headliners Bamford is yet to start a game for Steve McClaren’s side but has…

For the 25th consecutive week of the 2013-14 club football season, at least one Chelsea loan player scored for his temporary club. Sure, superstition typically suggests not to talk about the streak whilst it’s ongoing, but it hasn’t done it any damage thus far and with strikes from Patrick Bamford, Christian Atsu and Patrick van Aanholt this weekend, it’s also in rude health. Headliners We begin with Bamford, who has…

In the absence of any of the usual faces from the scoresheet this week, it fell to Slovakian Under-21 international Milan Lalkovic to keep the unbroken sequence of at least one Chelsea youngster scoring whilst away on loan this season alive. We begin the latest Loan Report with the Walsall forward. Headliners The past month or so has undoubtedly been Lalkovic’s most productive spell of the campaign to date, with…

The first Loan Report of 2014 begins in familiar form as Patrick Bamford continued the run of a Chelsea loanee scoring in every week of the season to date, but as we enter a month of transfer activity, the prolific hitman is amongst the many who are about to embark upon new challenges. Headliners Bamford’s seventeenth and final goal for Milton Keynes Dons came in the FA Cup away to…

Despite a healthy chunk of Chelsea’s loanees now being on their winter break, the streak of at least one goal being scored in every week of the season to date continued in the post-Christmas period courtesy of a familiar pair of left-footed forwards. Headliners Romelu Lukaku and Patrick Bamford have found the net more than twenty times combined this season and each of them added to their tallies this week…

It’s been quite a few months on the Chelsea loan front. With some two dozen youngsters having been sent out to destinations far and wide in order to continue their development, it’s oftentimes hard to keep track of their progress. At this mid-season juncture, it’s time to take a look at who’s fared well, who hasn’t, and who might be in for a change of scenery this coming January; for…
