Marshall loan expires...McCarthy may be next to leave from loan spell

Mark Marshall, the right winger that I brought in on loan to replace the now healthy Kieron Morris, has left my team after his parent club, Bradford City, refused to re-new his loan contract. Bradford City currently sits in third place in the league while I'm first, so it make sense for them to try to take away a decent player that has helped me reach current status while hoping it will hurt my team since they are a direct rival for  automatic promotion for the 2 top seated squad.

Mark Marshall made 13 appearance for Walsall, scored 4 goals and  added 2 assist for a final rating of 7.04 in league plays. In all matches, he made 13 appearances,  bagged 6 goals and set up 4 goals.

James McCarthy may leave and return to parent club

An even more important member of my squad.  central back, Jason McCarthy is leaning on returning to parent club Southampton after a loan very successful loan spell with Walsall. His loan spell will expire on January 27th. Today's date is January 14th, so still a few weeks to go but McCarthy has so far failed to green light an extension on his loan contract. I' m hoping he'll agree with an extension since Southampton seemed to be okay with it, but the player is not so sure. I will make other attempt closer to expiry date and hope he'll accept.

In all competition, Jason has appeared in 22 matches, scored 3 goals and assisted in 4. James also has played quite a lot at full back where he also excelled at it.
