Harvey Elliott (signed on loan)

[Rudy Can't Fail]

One thing I liked from him today, instead of passing to the centre back to pass it out wide, he passed it out wide himself, missing out the middle man. A small thing maybe but when you're as slow as us in the build up, ever second saved helps.

Not sure what his instructions were though, one minute he playing centrally, the next he's glued to the wing completely isolated. Maybe Moyes had a word with him.

Don't get why he never started to be honest.

Was at the game, so didn't see or hear anything about why he came off at half-time.  Thought he looked lively in the first half.

My impression of Unai is that if a player doesn’t have particularly remarkable physicality - be that pace, strength, or both, he likes to bed them in gradually. I think Elliott will be important it’ll just take a bit of time.

Just thought it was strange that he went off at half-time as I didn't think he was doing badly.  Would still like to see him on the right though.

Tidy first half - you could see he isn't fit enough yet.

All the media shite-talk about why he and Sancho aren't involved. Cool your frickin' jets, they're being integrated and will get a run in the team before long.

Another reason why Monchi was moved aside, if Unai takes ages to integrate players then why present him with 75% of your Summer signings on deadline day.

The last corner of the first half he signalled toward the bench. I assumed when Buendia came on he’d taken a knock.
