Only going by these stats below, but we seem to have been the better team so far

Good move for Austin. If he is going to be a backup in MLS, Orlando is probably one of the better places he could have landed. Our main goalkeeper Pedro Gallese misses at least a handful of games each year for international duty with Peru. The backup Rowe is okay, but he is likely being released. After that, all our other goalkeepers are academy or college kids that aren't ready yet. This will also help his chances if he has interest in playing for the US internationally. Goalkeeper is probably the weakest spot on the U23 Olympic team, and with the national team basically living out of Orlando right now, he could easily work his way into that side as well.

Not in Jose's plans this season or next, another one who surely won't be a Spurs player long after this loan expires.

Far too early to write him off at Spurs. He's England U21 goalie, need game time out on loan as it's difficult to give it in our team. But if he takes steps, he might very well be in our plans going forward. Both Lloris and Hart are towards the later stage of their career. We send Austin out for development, not to get him sold.

Great to see Bennett return from injury and bag his first two goals in the PL2.

He was flying for our U18s the past two seasons but the hype seemed to be simmering down as he stepped up to the U23s and hadn't scored a goal since February 2020. Hope to see him hit his previous levels.
