Rodders Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Injuries stopped us ever seeing if he could be useful for us so, best he moves on. Let's develop Bree at right back, and offer Hutton a reduced terms contract ( which I am pretty sure he'd accept ). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Get him off the books. Players are rarely 100% again after doing their cruciate too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 So it begins. Antwerp agree a buy out clause that when it comes to paying they claim they are unable to afford. They know we need the money so as the buying club they have the advantage. I guess they will look for a season long loan with us paying a decent proportion of his wages.

Junxs Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I also heard a couple of weeks ago that a deal was agreed with Antwerp to taking him on a permanent deal, but since all the hysteria with the finances this has been forgotten about. Cant find anything confirming he's gone anywhere though Maybe we are waiting to see whats happening with the Alan Hutton situation before deciding on RDL, someone must have clicked the good old "stall transfer" button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 not replacing Snodgrass and he has blistering pace. I wonder with lack of signings could he be used further up the pitch Since we already have a large collection of right backs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can't sign any new players, Elmo will have to become our Salah. De Laet, Hutton, Bree, and Taylor as our full backs isn't the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Hope not, AEM was woeful start of the season as a right sided midfielder, real waste of one of the attacking spots imo. Play Green or RHM instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't move on he might be worth trying in the hole we have in the centre of our defence (he looked ok there in a cup game as I recall).

Junxs Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Was absolutely superb today, after that horrible injury it was so nice to see the player we all thought we were signing, Take him out of the bomb squad and integrate him to the team! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good thing about Bree and De Laet is they can play multiple roles in the team either FB or CB. Elmo can play right side, with a smaller squad this may prove useful. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played the first half alongside Whelan in midfield then moved to RB once all the subs started to be made. I thought he looked really sharp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmo as his wages will be far higher, assuming anyone will take him because his wages are so high. Oh and because he's crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
