We are nearing the half-way mark of the 2016/17 season and, at this stage of the campaign, it is worth checking out all the players who have left Premier League clubs on loan.

Arsenal have 13 players away from the Emirates for the duration of this season, with some performing excellently at top division clubs, and others struggling to get into their temporary team in the lower reaches of the footballing pyramid.

talkSPORT have done the research on how these 13 players have performed so far this season, and you can see a review of every loanee by clicking the right arrow, above…

13 Jack Wilshere (AFC Bournemouth) – take a look at how the rest of Arsenal's loanees are getting on, just click the arrow above to reveal all – The highest profile of this seasons Arsenal loanees, Wilshere left the Emirates Stadium to link up with Premier League side Bournemouth for the season. After a slow start to his time on the South Coast, he has really come into his own at Dean Court and looks back to his best. The 24-year-old has played 14 games in total, and although he has still not scored or assisted a goal, he is creating the highest number of chances per game (2). Arsene Wenger is reportedly set to off him a new contract due to his form with the Cherries.

13 Daniel Crowley (Oxford United) – 19-year-old attacking midfielder Crowley has played 11 games for League One Oxford, although has registered only two starts in the league. Regarded as a talented playmaker, he has scored three goals and assisted two, but has been criticised for being lightweight and selfish on the pitch. Manager Michael Appleton also had harsh words for Crowley in November, revealing he had been dropped from the squad due to personal issues, claiming his professionalism at times lets him down.

13 Ryan Huddart (Eastleigh) – Agreed a season-long switch with the National League side in August, 19-year-old goalkeeper Huddart has struggled this season. Primarily Eastleighs backup keeper, he has played only four games  conceding eight goals in the process. He has not even been in the playing squad for the past few games, after the club signed Wycombes Scott Brown as their new first-choice.

13 Jon Toral (Granada) – Signed by head coach Paco Jemez, 21-year-old Toral started the first game of the LaLiga season. However, Jemez then dropped him, and he failed to play in any of the next eight games until the manager was sacked. His replacement Lucas Alcaraz recalled him for the following three games, before placing him on the bench, then giving him a start in the Spanish Cup. Yet to impress in his homeland, the midfielder has only scored one goal  in a Copa Del Rey win over Osasuna.

13 Wojciech Szczesny (AS Roma) – Spending his second consecutive season on loan at Roma, Szczesny has continued as the clubs first-choice league goalkeeper. The Pole has played every minute of all 16 Serie A matches, conceding 16 goals and keeping six clean sheets in the process as Roma have risen to second in the table. He has been benched for Europa League action, but there are no doubts about his quality as a solid top flight keeper.

13 Stefan O’Connor (MVV Maastricht) – Young centre-back OConnor, 19, is spending the season with MVV of the Jupiler League, the Dutch second division, but he has made little impact. Unfortunately playing for the team who sit second in the league table, OConnor has been handed few chances to break into the line-up. He has played just three minutes of football this term, coming in three separate substitute appearances.

13 Julio Pleguezuelo (RCD Mallorca) – Defender Pleguezuelo is currently playing for Mallorca, who are midtable in LaLiga2. The 19-year-old has made three appearances in all competitions, starting one league game and two Copa Del Rey matches. He has failed to seriously impress, and his most recent appearance  on November 27  saw him sent off for two bookable offences in the space of five minutes.

13 Tafari Moore (FC Utrecht) – An 18-year-old left-back, Moore signed for Dutch club Utrecht in the summer, but has primarily spent the season with their B team in the second division. He made one Eredivisie appearance – 24 minutes as a substitute in a 5-1 defeat – but has played eight games (seven starts) in the Jupiler League. The reception to his performances has been mixed in the most part.

13 Joel Campbell (Sporting CP) – A departure few expected, Campbell, 24, has performed well for Portuguese giants Sporting. He has scored three goals and registered one assist. Afforded little chance in European competition, making only four substitute appearances, he has shown the talent to potentially regain his place in the Arsenal squad.

13 Takuma Asano (Stuttgart) – Signed from Sanfrecce in the summer, Japanese striker Asano was sent on loan to 2.Bundesliga side Stuttgart where he has struggled. Although he has made 12 appearances (nine starts), the 22-year-old has only scored two goals and assisted two more. He has primarily been played in the wing positions, but his struggles in a second-tier league hardly suggest he is good enough for the Gunners.

13 Calum Chambers (Middlesbrough) – Another player who started slowly in the Premier League, Chambers is starting to find his feet with Boro. The 21-year-old defender has played 10 league matches as a centre-back, and looks to be one of Aitor Karankas first-choice defenders. His relationship with Ben Gibson has formed a solid base for Boro to pick up a series of good results, including draws against Manchester City and Leicester in recent weeks, and a win against Hull.

13 Kelechi Nwakali (MVV Maastricht) – Whilst Stefan OConnor has struggled for game time with Maastricht, 18-year-old summer signing Nwakali has been a key player for the high-flying Jupiler League side. The attacking midfielder has played eight games, earning rave reviews for a consistent series of performances  including earning the man of the match award in the 3-0 win over FC Den Bosch.
