The rags are interested in Elphick aren’t they?

He has come here to start surely? And Bruce has presumably given Mourinho those assurances. So, unless he takes over from Hutton/right back , I can't see the point in signing him.
He can't possibly have been assured a starting place.  I think it's a reasonable idea as back up for Terry & Chester, particularly as other than a couple of recent games Elphick never looked like he would do it for us.  It's a kick in the nuts for Suliman though and I hope he is significantly better to justify pushing one of our own further down the rankings.

A change in formation would be madness right now although having it as an option if needed later in the season makes some sense I guess.

He can play in midfield too. He's absolutely rapid.

The rags are flat broke. They couldn't afford his left leg let alone the entire player.

The first reports I read on him stated he was a defensive midfield player

Start of the season when Redknapp was in charge.

No nothing whatsoever about him, but I like to hear the words"has pace" with anyone we are linked with.

Oh. Apparently he was at the match on Saturday sitting with Tony Coton (Axel I mean).

I would expect he will come in as cover for Terry and Chester especially the former. Terry’s been brilliant but he’s also in his mid thirties. Ideally this lad is the long term partner to Chester in the PL.

Only if Chester moves in the summer to The Plastics. Mourinho highly rates the lad but said at the weekend he needs games so was the only player he was prepared to put out on loan. He's a centre back that can play right back so imagining Bruce has agreed to give him games I'm struggling to see where he'll play. We already have 5 right backs. Good player but why? I guess we'll soon find out.

If he comes and does well, and we get promoted, they may let us have him for a year next season.
