Elliott being a disappointment what for not being given a chance?

Perhaps he hasn’t earnt it? Or perhaps Unai hasn’t picked him because he doesn’t want him? who knows but the short times he has been on the field he has been no better than Guessand

What games in particular are you talking about?

For £30m I was expecting a bit more than nuisance value as an attribute and I'm not sure he's that convincing even in the nuisance department. Agree he needs time to settle but so far he's reminding me of Martin Carruthers.

Oh, God...really? That's bad :(

I'm prepared to stick with Guessand because he's handsome enough to play for us. I will not entertain people called Harvey who look like squashed mobile phone salesmen.

You have a thing for black, erratic wingers with good hair.

I know a lot is FFP type stuff but sangho, Elliot and guessard just looking like sizeable backwards steps from Ramsey and Bailey
And yet, last season’s versions of Ramsey (form and fitness) and Bailey (form) were not up to much at all.

Didn’t see the game last night, but recognise the description of his performance from other games.

All looks a bit Philogene-esque to me - expect him to be given opportunities through to Christmas, and if he fails to turn the tide, out on loan.

I doubt he will be sent out on loan as we can't really bring anyone else in yet without selling a player or two to keep plus transfer balance.
