Rough UCL debut Trafford recorded no saves and allowed two goals in Tuesday's 2-0 defeat versus Bayer Leverkusen.

Impact Trafford would finally get another start Tuesday, his first appearance in net since Gianluigi Donnarumma took his role and joined the club. However, Trafford would have a rough day, not making a single save while allowing two goals, almost giving up a third after coming too far off his line. He will likely return to the bench after the woeful outing, only earning starts here and there.

Concedes two against Brighton Trafford had five saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Brighton.

Impact Trafford did well with five saves Sunday, but after a late run and a penalty converted earlier in the game, he would allow two in the loss. That said, it is now two straight matches without a clean sheet for the goalie. He will look to recover next outing, although he could be relegated to a backup with transfer rumors of a new goalie joining the club swirling.

Concedes two against Spurs Trafford registered three saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-0 loss versus Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Trafford was in for a rough match against Spurs on Saturday, with the goalie making three saves but allowing two goals, one of which was possibly saveable, while another came from his own mistake, passing it into the middle of the box straight into danger. This is two straight games with three saves, although he earned a clean sheet last time out. He will now have to be wary of his starting spot, as the club is looking at bringing in a new signing that could take his spot after Saturday's display.

Clean sheet in City return Trafford recorded three saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 4-0 victory over Wolverhampton.

Impact Trafford was excellent in his return to City after an early goal was called back for offside, earning a clean sheet and registering three saves in the win. This looks likely to be the goalie's starting spot to lose after the performance, with Ederson seemingly on his way out of the club. He will hope to see the same success in clean sheets as he saw in the Championship last season, needing to be at his best to pull off another clean sheet against Tottenham on Aug. 23.
