Harvey Elliott (signed on loan)

[brontebilly]

Hope he plays today. Getting linked to likes of Loftus-Cheek....screw that and give the guy already at the club a chance.

Yeah, give him the next few games and see if he can make Emery eat his words that he’d made his mind up that he doesn’t want him two or three months ago. And if he STILL doesn’t rate him in a couple of weeks time, what’s £35m to a club with our financial headroom?

Emery was happy to let Bailey go last summer yet he was our first man on yesterday. Maybe Liverpool might be flexible to the loan terms being extended a bit as at the moment all three parties involved are losing out.

And Bailey being the first man on doesn't answer your question? The lad obviously isn't playing for us again.

Maybe but surprised if he was on the bench yesterday if there really was no chance of him playing. Emery has made judgements before on players, Bailey and Buendia, but they have changed his mind. Buendia spectacularly so. Sancho and Guessand have been given every chance. If there was any chance of giving Elliot a proper go Id be in favour of it. He could play against Salzburg for starters.

There was a rumour floating around yesterday in the ground that as Liverpool don't want Elliott back that Liverpool had increased the number of games
to trigger signing from 10 to 20....no idea if true but it does make sense...to me anyway

It makes logical sense, but on a human level I think Emery will be aware that a demoralised player (because of Emery) will not be up to the required standard.

Demoralised is probably most likely, but there's also the possibility you can harness the "I'll show this bastard how wrong he is" attitude.

More than happy to see Elliott come on and score a late winner on Sunday and run along the touchline flicking Vs at Emery on his way.

Point of order!  Emery publicly said Buendia’s loan was to get his fitness up rather than him not being good enough.  Emery appears to have directly questioned Elliot’s quality, at least against a £35m fee.

Emery playing 6D chess!

Weren't we openly shopping Buendia around last summer? That day he was brought on and off v Brentford seemed to be the final straw for him (thought it was a harsh call at the time). Footballers are remarkably resilient people in the main, Emery has his doubts about Elliot but things can change quickly.

Indeed, he could definitely change his mind. The problem will be the ten game threshold means he’s unlikely to see him in action.

That clause needs to be amended as it is not working for all four parties.

Wasn't Kortney released last summer?
