Harvey Elliott (signed on loan)

If Liverpool want to protect their investment, they'll terminate this loan early Jan.

Is there investment better protected by him not playing for them and them paying his wages, over him not playing for us and us paying his wages?

If he can’t get a game against a pub team like Young Boys, there’s no hope for the kid here. Return to sender.

Did we want to use up one of the 10 appearances against a pub team like Young Boys. If he hasn't made an appearance by the 27th Dec though I expect we are not playing him at all.

Emery doesn't want him so best for all parties to agree it was a 4 month fuck up and call it a day.

There was a discussion on Sky Sporys News about him earlier today.  The reporter was outside Villa Park and said that it's likely Emery doesn't rate him and certainly doesn't want to fork out £35m for him, so it's unlikely that we will see him play for Villa again. 

Unless he's done something badly wrong, it's hard not to feel a bit of sympathy for him.
