Summary
It's the international break which seems like a good time to check in with how our loaned players are getting on at their various clubs. Joining Ian Stone to bring you the lowdown on the loan-ly boys it's Adrian Clarke and Art de Roche.
We glide around the nations checking in on those in the Premier League, Ligue 1, and EFL to see how they're developing and if that loan is working out.
Plus with Mesut Ozil retiring we reflect on the player that made you make noises, apparently! And there's some love for the Arsenal Women too
