Ashley Phillips & Jamie Donley (Stoke City)​

Tottenham must be considering recalling Jamie Donley from his loan at Stoke for the 20-year-old has barely featured for the Potters. He has not started a single game in the Championship and has only come off the bench twice in the past 13 matches in the league.

Donley has not been included in the past three matchday squads under Stoke boss Mark Robins and Tottenham will be wary of his development being stunted by the lack of opportunities to play, with 77 Championship minutes to his name across four matches.

His Spurs team-mate Ashley Phillips is back in contention at least and has started the past eight matches in the league for the Potters, playing every single minute of them.


Donley will be hoping his fortune changes at Stoke in the coming weeks as the games come thick and fast, otherwise he could well be playing elsewhere in 2026.

Ashley Phillips & Jamie Donley (Stoke City)​

There's two different answers here for the two young players Tottenham sent to Stoke. Centre-back Ashley Phillips was out in the cold but has now started the past eight matches in the league for the Potters, playing every single minute of them.

However, the same cannot be said for Jamie Donley as the 20-year-old has barely featured for the Potters. He has not started a single game in the Championship and has only come off the bench twice in the past 13 matches in the league.

Donley is not believed to be pushing for a new move, but has not been included in the past three matchday squads under Stoke boss Mark Robins and Tottenham will be wary of his development being stunted, with just 77 Championship minutes to his name across four matches after such a successful season at Leyton Orient following some initial teething problems.


Spurs are lacking in playmakers but Thomas Frank never really seemed to take to Donley in the summer so a return to the club might not be on the cards yet.

Verdict: New loan for Donley while Phillips stays
 
Gold:

Tyrese Hall (Notts County)​

Tyrese Hall has been getting plenty of game time for Notts County and will be hoping to start yet again as they travel to Cheltenham in League Two on Monday night.

The 20-year-old midfielder has got five goals and one assist across 814 minutes in 15 appearances on his first senior loan.

Tyrese Hall (Notts County)​

Tyrese Hall has been dazzling for Notts County and scored again on Monday night in their 2-1 win at Cheltenham in League Two.

The 20-year-old has racked up six goals from midfield and one assist across 904 minutes in 15 appearances on his first senior loan. There's interest in Hall from clubs in League One and the Championship but the player and County are enjoying life together.​

It would take something big with similarly regular football to give Spurs a decision to make in January if he continues on his current trajectory.
Verdict: Stay unless something big comes in
 
Ajayi not in squad. Hall started.
LOL.
I let out a big roar when County equalised in added time like I care about Notts County.
I think Tyrese was named MOTM as I was typing this?
FT 1-1

Wouldn’t be surprised if Leeds make a bid for Solomon in Jan.
Looking a bit bleak for them at the moment. He doesn’t seem to be getting much game time in Spain. 15m to get him plus bonus if they stop up. Or even a loan with obligation if they stop up.
 
Devine starts. Does 90. 1-1.
Phillips starts, Donley not in squad. Phillips does 90, Win 3-0
Lankshear on bench. Subbed on 66. Oxford equalised in ET,
Solomon on bench. unused sub. Foyth sent off. Lost 4-0,
 
Oxford (Lankshear) game at 8pm.
Starts on bench. Comes on 63 along with Placheta with Oxford under cosh 1-1 and he and Plach turn the game around.
All Oxford then Ipswich fight back last 10 mins but Ox hold on. 2-1 FT.
