Arsenal Loan Watch: Jenkinson Continues Form And Lipman Ends Drought

Wellington Silva – UD Almeria

Wellington Silva is still gaining valuable experience by being a regular in UD Almeria’s side. He’s played two out of three games so far and even starting both the 1-1 draw against Getafe and 2-0 loss to Sevilla. The Brazilian got subbed off in the 74th and 73rd minute respectively.

Austin Lipman – Boreham Wood

Austin Lipman continues to have a hard time with The Wood. Aside from scoring his first goal for 115 days in Boreham Woods 5-0 win over Bishop’s Stortford, his minutes have been sparse. Lipman has only played 20 minutes these past two weeks.

 

Jon Toral – Brentford 

Jon Toral has continued to play under the manager since impressing in November. Toral started in Brentford’s 2-0 loss to Brighton and Hove Albion, while being subbed on in the 75th minute for Jota Peleteiro in the Bees’ 1-0 win over Rotherdam.

 

Benik Afobe – MK Dons 

Benik Afobe has had a great season so far with Milton Keynes, but failed to score in their 1-0 loss to Chesterfield – the only game he featured in since Fresh Arsenal’s last loan watch. He did not feature in The Dons’ 2-2 draw with Crawley Town. In addition, the Englishman is reportedly close to a move to Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Ryo Miyaichi – FC Twente

FC Twente have not played any matches since our last loan watch.

 

Carl Jenkinson – West Ham United

Carl Jenkinson has turned into one of West Ham’s first names on the team sheet. He hasn’t missed a minute of football so far this month for the Hammers. I will reiterate he’s maturing with every game and must surely be Arsenal’s squad next year. To top it off, he scored his penalty in the 2-2 (9-8 on penalties) win over Everton in the FA Cup.
