Xela Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Looking at the Boro highlights videos, he seemed to play on the left a few times for them. He should be given a go there for us, with Snodgrass on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted September 10, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted September 10, 2017 Bit disappointed he hasn't featured much, especially as Elmo has been pretty shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 15 assists in this league in last 2 seasons. nothing to do with him not playing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Should be one of the first names on the team sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second most assists in the league last season (second to Hourihane who got all his at a different club) in a team that didn't score that many goals. Nothing to do with him not playing. He is literally our most productive player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vreitti Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Not that difficult to grasp why he isn't getting any game time. He just isn't a Bruce type player, he wants to go forward and be effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael118 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 (edited) 10 assists last season but 6 of those were against teams which finished 12th or lower and 4 came from the Bristol, Burton and Wigan matches. Scored 3 goals as well but didn't score any against teams which finished in the top 10. Edited September 11, 2017 by Michael118 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael118 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Looking at his stats again maybe I was being slightly unfair as 4 of his 10 assists did come against teams which finished in the top 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 He must either be injured or terrible during training if he can't force Elmo out the team considering the way he's playing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way he deserves a place on the bench at the very least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 the forgotten man under Bruce. I think Bruce prefers to use Elmo since they have worked together previously. Judging by Elmo's performance in the last game I think it's only fair that he's at least making the damn bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 I hope Bruce uses his large squad to promote competition for players like Adomah, rather than just to play his mates from Hull every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 If that cameo doesn't get him on the teamsheet Saturday, nothing will. He's one of a very small number of players in this squad who actually look like making something happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
