I went over to him and said ‘’Are you Tommy Elphick?’’, he said ‘’yes’’ and then I said ‘’Are you going to leave in the Summer?’’ and then he said ‘’I have a few offers on the table’’ and then finally I said ‘’ You played really well against Ipswich’’ and then he left without buying anything Poor bugger probably thought you were going to give him the lowdown of the u23 team 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Just now, sir_gary_cahill said: After his recent performances, why not? I think it would be a mistake. He has looked ok but he will be 32 near the start of next season and not going to get any better. One year extension maybe but anything longer than that its the club making the same mistake again. He will probably want longer than a year and will leave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, no disrespect to Elphick but the club needs to start building for the future and that isn't achieved by giving 32 year olds who have made 40 appearances is 3 seasons new deals.

Nigel Posted February 2, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2019 Mings and Elphick were good today. Great news that we can fully rest Chester. However i see a return to the bench for him soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"IF" Mings and Elphick form a good partnership and perform well, neither should be dropped imo. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Eastie Posted February 2, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 2, 2019 Shows how ridiculous it was to let him go to hull and persevere with jedinak at centre half - elphick has been a model pro in his time with villa and deserves the plaudits for his recent performances - well done tommy 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) to be fair to both Elphick & Mings, would be really unfair if either were dropped for the next game (if Chester returns), as i thought both did really well.

Are you expecting Tommy to keep a clean sheet and score all the goals to win the game or something? We're just applauding the fact he has been treated poorly and is doing really well despite that.
