They are just commenting that there is 10 but we haven't hit it yet, with a comment from Emery that he is more a 10 or needs to learn how to play right side like McGinn (the latter is strange as that was his position for England and Liverpool but....). I still expect him to get matches leading up to Jan though although it depends who might leave and who might come in with our new recruitmant master.

Our medical team are probably working on increasing the size of Harveys arse before Unai will put him in the McGinn role. Could take months/years.

Just a thought.

McGinn has defied with gusto the maxim that it's hard to get by when your arse is the size of a small country. In fact, it's very much the opposite. His new career-securing contract depends on the strength of his gluteus maximus. So swivel, Mr Hannon, you Enniskillen-Red.

Harvey Elliott was player of tournament for the U21's in the Euros this summer. I saw him play and he was excellent, plus he scored in the final which England beat Germany 3-2. I find it really odd that he can't even make our bench??
U21s is underage football. While Eliot might shine at that level he might be finding the physical demands of the PL a bit too much. He does get knocked off the ball.too easily for my liking
