Liam Delap and Kayky frustrated as Man City's loan players struggle

Taylor Harwood-Bellis

Defender Harwood-Bellis remains an ever-present in the Championship for Vincent Kompany's Burnley. He will have been disappointed his temporary employers couldn't hold on for a win at West Brom last time out though, conceding a stoppage time equaliser in a 1-1 draw.

Middlesbrough goalkeeper Steffen remains on the sidelines with a knee injury. He missed Monday's win over close rivals Sunderland — the third straight game he sat out.

Liam Delap

The young forward is still searching for his first goal on loan at Stoke City. New boss Alex Neil has kept faith with the striker since his arrival last month. Delap has started all four games since City sent him to the Potters.

Tommy Doyle and James McAtee

The City duo are both at Sheffield United on season-long loans and have both struggled to nail down starting spots. Both have two starts and two sub appearances to their name so far in the Championship with the table-topping Blades.

However Doyle has an assist to his name and for the time being appears to be the better-placed of the two to hold onto a starting spot.

Luke Mbete

Defender Mbete joined Huddersfield on loan last month, but did not make their matchday squad for Sunday's loss at home to Blackpool.

Slobodan Tedic

The Serbian made a late cameo for Barnsley in their impressive 2-0 win away at Sheffield Wednesday, playing the final 16 minutes.

James Trafford
