Has this player EVER let us down? I can't think of any game he's been less than a seven. We looked better after Taylor went off and he came on, that Leicester player was in Elmo's pocket.

I've always liked him and no, he's not really let us down. He's been a very decent signing for the money.

He's always solid and does a good job but only at fullback for me, I hate seeing him on the wing.

I never wanted him though but that was always a squad balance thing more than anything else, I've probably slagged him off at some point in this thread but that was always more to do with him coming in when we had 3 right backs in the squad and thinking he's not massively better than 2 of them (in Hutton and RDL) and was just about to turn 30.

I thought he did an even better job against Harvey Barnes than Hutton did.  I'd be quite happy seeing those two as our full backs for the rest of the season, unless of course we bring in another left back.

Poor today. Unforced error with the header that led to the penalty.

Bumping this as have to say Elmo has been a super asset to the system and the 8 wins achieved.

What I most like is how he's being more thoughtful with his delivery and that pull back midweek to Grealish was great footy awareness.
I hold my hands up on Elmo as thought he was way out of it and have to say never really rated him for a first choice role.
So I didn't see that.
What I think is he's been beneficial after his appearance when he messed up and gave naive penalty away. Tackling isn't his strength  and even last week being exposed for the sheff wed goal but with Smith system as a right back Elmo is being effective.

He's able to get up and down and I always saw him as a decent wing back or winger but not a right back .
The beauty the way Smith plays his football makes Elmo a very effective player.
Especially away from home think he adds a lot .
Well played Elmo

Fair play to the Egyptian Cafu. Has been really good in recent weeks, so much more of a threat in the attacking third and has improved defensively after a dodgy spell earlier in the season.

The nutmeg of their sub Palmer near the end of the game was class!

To be fair Elmo and Taylor have come into their own in recent weeks and that is down to good management
