2011/2012 Mid-season Update:

Dean Hoo is a squad player at Blackburn and he has made 9 league appearances so far. However, his returns have been poor, just 1 goal and 1 assist in those 9 starts and a 6.60 rating.

Marc Vaughan has made a 2.6 million pound move to Manchester City. Was it the right move? He's currently in the reserves where he has been playing well (7 games, 1 goal, 3 assists, 1 MOM, 7.36 rating) but it remains to be seen if he can break into the first team squad at some point, what with Gareth Barry, Yaya Toure, Nigel De Jong all ahead of him in the pecking order.

Rob Nielsen is having difficulty adjusting to the pace of the Premiership. While he is with the first team, his performances have been spotty so far (5 games, 6.10 rating). If not for 2 decent cup performances, his rating would be terrible (5.87 in 3 Premiership starts). His performance in the reserves is impressive though (8 games, 6 goals, 2 assists, 1 MOM, 7.23 rating).

Daniel Ertmann made 1 cup appearance for Liverpool in the first half of the season before being sent out on loan to Coventry. He has started well there, scoring 2 goals in 4 starts (7.20 rating, 1 MOM).

Jace Hunter is the starter for the Barcelona U-19s but he still wants to leave the club. Great performances though, conceding just 10 goals in 25 games and having 17 clean sheets and 2 MOMs (7.26 rating). Barcelona may try hard to keep him at the club.

Julio O'Donnell just returned from a loan with Doncaster (League 1) where he performed well again (22 games, 2 assists, 5 MOMs, 6 yellows, 1 red, 7.59 rating). He has since started appearing for Birmingham and is showing himself to be rocksteady at the back (3 games, 3 yellos, 7.13 rating). He was named to the League 1 team of the week 4 times and was the young player of the month for League 1 in August.

Bernard Blaze has been sent out on loan to Coventry as well and the club will be hoping he strikes up a good partnership with Daniel Ertmann. He's appeared in 18 games so far and has played really well (3 goals, 4 assists, 3 MOMs, 7.42 rating). He has been named to the League 1 team of the week once and was young player of the month in January.

Frank Justice is an important first team player at Norwich now. He has appeared in 26 games (3 goals, 4 assists, 2 yellows, 7.00 rating) but had to lay off for 4 weeks in December with strained ankle ligaments.

Path Twelve is also at Norwich, sent on loan by Sunderland to get first team experience. He's played decently (7 games, 1 assist, 6.80 rating) but the kid is injury prone. In 2 seasons so far, he has suffered a twisted ankle (5 weeks out), a concussion (10 days out), a broken arm (6 weeks out), a torn groin muscle (7 weeks out) and a twisted knee (4 days out).

Ubaldo Geronimo did make his move to Napoli in the end but then things kinda fell apart. He had made 3 appearances for Luton (3 goals, 1 assist, 7.30 rating) then he made one substitute appearance for Napoli (5.90 rating) ... and for some reason was sent out on loan to Chateauroux. However, he can't play any more professional games because a player can only play for 2 clubs in 1 season! A wasted year for Ubaldo.

Will Brown is at Wolves. While he's part of the main squad, he has only made 1 cup appearance so far (1 goal, 7.60 rating) but he's been fantastic in reserve games (13 appearances, 11 goals, 1 assist, 4 MOMs, 5 yellows, 1 red, 7.48 rating).
