Tottenham have an even larger group of players out on loan now all trying to make their mark across the English game and in Europe.

Ange Postecoglou could have done with some of his players back during this spell with such a threadbare squad but some had no recall clauses and it was decided that others were better off continuing their development with regular football at their loan clubs this season.

A couple of further players headed out on loan before the winter transfer window closed while Dane Scarlett returned from his spell at Oxford United.

Here's how the club's 13 loan players, plus Luka Vuskovic who will join Tottenham in the summer, have got on over the past week.

Yang Min-hyeok (QPR)

Yang Min-hyeok made his second appearance in England on Tuesday night as he came on for the final 24 minutes of QPR's 2-1 win in the Championship at home against Blackburn. That followed up the 14 minutes he got three days before in the 2-1 defeat at Millwall.

The 18-year-old will be hoping for further minutes on Tuesday night when Rangers make their way to Coventry and he impressed in his latest game.

handed Yang a six after his performance against Blackburn with the review: "Lively after coming on for his home debut."

Will Lankshear (West Bromwich Albion)

Will Lankshear also earned the plaudits after he made his debut in the Championship for West Bromwich Albion in their 2-1 victory at home against Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday.

The 19-year-old striker earned plenty of praise for his 23 minutes on the pitch from the , who gave him a rating of seven with the glowing first review: "A really encouraging debut from the Tottenham loan teenager. Looks a proper physical unit and knows how to handle himself. Involved in opener."

Jamie Donley and Josh Keeley (Leyton Orient)

The Jamie Donley and Josh Keeley Show at Leyton Orient took to the FA Cup stage on Saturday against Manchester City.

Donley forced a remarkable own goal from Stefan Ortega when his 50-yard effort hit the crossbar and bounced in off the goalkeeper to give Pep Guardiola's team a big scare.

"What a goal!" said Guardiola of the 20-year-old's strike. "So assured. When you concede this goal, you can only congratulate the guy. He's an incredible left-footed player and scored a fantastic goal."

Goalkeeper , who scored a late equaliser earlier in the competition against Oldham Athletic, also played his part on the day and it was only in the second half when Abdukodir Khusanov and Kevin de Bruyne won it for the Premier League champions.

"We were lucky at the end because they had chances, but we created a lot, their keeper was really, really good and it was a tight game," said Guardiola of the Spurs stopper.

Orient boss Richie Wellens added: "Josh was class and he’s been brilliant. I think 75 per cent of his performances have been clean-sheets. He’s got good character for a young kid and he’ll only go on and develop potentially into a top-level Premier League goalkeeper if he keeps his feet on the ground."

Bryan Gil (Girona)

got 67 minutes in Girona's 3-0 defeat at Athletic Bilbao on Sunday in La Liga.

It meant that the 23-year-old has got plenty of game time back home in Spain and has racked up 1.970 minutes to his name and scored four goals and registered three assists in his 28 matches in the Spanish top flight.

Next up Gil and Girona welcome Getafe on Friday night.

Manor Solomon (Leeds United)

grabbed another assist as Leeds won 2-0 at Coventry in the Championship on Wednesday evening but was also involved from the bench as they exited the FA Cup at Elland Road against Millwall on Saturday.

He still got praise for his substitution performance with a seven in with the review: "Was the liveliest of the initial trip that came on and cause Millwall to think more. In fact, was the most exciting winger all day for Leeds."

That means the 25-year-old has now registered six goal involvements in his past six matches with three goals and three assists. In all Solomon has managed six goals and seven assists across his 26 matches for the Elland Road club.

Alfie Devine and Luka Vuskovic (Westerlo)

and had mostly watching roles as Westerlo won 4-2 at home against Standard Liege.

Devine came on for the final 24 minutes of the victory and defender Vuskovic was unable to play after picking up a suspension through an accumulation of yellow cards.

It was the second suspension of the season for the 17-year-old after his ban for a . Vuskovic was handed a one-match ban, two-match suspended sentence and a €2,000 (£1,690) fine following that dismissal.

Alejo Veliz (Espanyol)

is on a little run of getting game time at Espanyol and he was brought on at half-time during Sunday's 2-1 defeat at Real Sociedad.

The striker was unable to help his loan club take away a point but he is building up the minutes and the experience.

The 21-year-old now has 21 appearances to his name with four goals, including a Copa del Rey hat-trick, and he has got 1,114 minutes under his belt.

Alfie Dorrington (Aberdeen)

Alfie Dorrington made his full Aberdeen debut with a 90-minute display in their 2-0 defeat at Hibernian last weekend and followed that up with 22 minutes from the bench in the 3-0 Scottish FA Cup victory at home against Dunfermline on Sunday.

It's all senior experience for the 19-year-old centre-back, who made his Premier League debut this season for Spurs at Southampton. He now has four appearances under his belt for Aberdeen.

Ashley Phillips (Stoke City)

was left on the bench for Stoke's FA Cup tie at home against Cardiff on Saturday and could only watch on as his team lost 7-5 on penalties at the bet365 Stadium.

The 19-year-old has been a near ever-present at the back for Stoke and they missed him at the back during a goal-fest that ended 3-3 after normal time.

George Abbott (Notts County)

George Abbott continues to get 90 minutes aplenty under his belt as Notts County won 2-0 at home against Morecambe on Saturday.

The 19-year-old has four goals and four assists to his name in his 26 appearances for the Magpies this season and has been making a big impression on his first loan.

Matthew Craig (Mansfield Town)

After making his debut for Mansfield last month, Matthew Craig has not played since that day for his new loan club.

Nigel Clough explained this week that the 21-year-old has a back problem that "has not progressed as much as we'd like" and he's still getting pain despite a clear scan, with no return date yet set.

That means Craig will miss a reunion with Donley and Perry as Mansfield take on Orient in League One on Tuesday night.

Luca Gunter (Wealdstone)

Nineteen-year-old goalkeeper Luca Gunter has been taking his first steps into senior football and had to pick the ball out of the net four times as Wealdstone lost 4-0 at home to Gateshead on Saturday.

The teenager has made four National League appearances so far and will be looking for plenty more minutes in the remainder of his loan spell.
