If he plays well he might get another game in about April. Goo on Harvey.

I do wonder (and hope) that we have come to a agreement to remove the clause. It benefits liverpool as he gets used and if does well another club may make a offer in summer. Gets them more money and helps us.

Who knows if he does brilliantly  well for us emery might change his mind. Unlikely  i know but this is football stranger things have happened

Why did we take him pay his wages and then not play him?

The Elliott to Deano's Charlotte maybe back on the cards

https://x.com/SkySportsNews/status/2014374053457350779?s=20

Can someone explain this for me please

"Dean Smith sees Harvey Elliott as a right half-space receiver, connecting underlaps and pinning the last line. Charlotte should set up a 3+2 rest defence behind him. On loan at Villa from Liverpool, using a DP slot is a tidy bit of business."

Fuck knows what right half space receiver is but Designated Player (DP) in the MLS is a player whose high salary and acquisition costs are largely exempt from the league's salary cap.
Well, I’d take the “right” in “right half-space receiver” as being the same kind of phrase as right in “he’s a right idiot” or “he’s a right twat”, so it’s clearly not complimentary as “right” before anything (“you’re a right jellyfish”) is insulting.

So it’s just down to what a half-space receiver means, although we know it’s not complimentary. I reckon half-space probably means something similar to dimwit. You know, a sandwich short of a picnic. 3 cans short of a six pack. A half-space.

“Receiver” probably just means that he orders loads shit off the internet, so he’s constantly getting packages that he’s having to sign for.

It’s the only logical conclusion to that phrase.

The right half space receiver might be related to the African Reverser and the Chelsea Bottle Thrower.

Liverpool could have shifted the goalposts a little to say 20 games, in the hope Elliot either plays and we'll enough to attract a different buyer, or well enough that we use him and he makes himself a nailed on buy. It makes much more sense for them to do that, than it does to leave him to not play.
