TrentVilla Posted July 19, 2017 Moderator Share Posted July 19, 2017 37 minutes ago, sne said: Said it earlier but as long as we manage to flog Bacuna, Richards and Hutton I have no issue with this signing. After all it was inevitable. Still reeling from the chock of us not signing Huddlestone thou. I think Hutton wil go, the other two not a chance.

rodders0223 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Welcome Elmo, I know you won't bring a huge increase in quality but hopefully you have a set of bollocks most of the team is missing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted July 19, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) Welcome Elmo. A Hull legend according to a Facebook poster on our official page - 'If the word " LEGEND " means anything for The tigers fans , so :the most apps for a player in hull histroy in primer league ➡HIMfirst goal for hull in a European tournament ➡ HimHelped the club to reach the only FA cup final ➡HIMloyel to the club and helped to promote the club not once but twice ➡ Himthe craziest dancer in Hull history ➡Himgood bye legend, good bye ELMOHAMADY ❤' I want to see a dance off between Kodjia, Adomah and Elmo. P.S that's not my spelling or grammar... Edited July 19, 2017 by villan-scott Clarification on my ability to navigate the English written word.

skarroki Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 For me, the worst thing about this transfer is people calling him a right back and declaring we're going to a 5-3-2 formation based on one signing. Think he'll provide good competition for Adomah on the right wing and Bjarnason will compete with Green on the left. Looking forward to seeing him play for us a few times and making my own mind up on how good he is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V01 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Thoroughly whelmed. We lack width (Gabby aside) but Adomah and Green should be starting ahead of him. I guess he's a useful option for a low fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic_bouma Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Yeh it made me chuckle when I read comments yesterday that he can't cross a ball. People are so quick to talk about a player they have never properly watched. He's a fantastic crosser of the ball, something which we are notoriously shit at. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoughboroughLion Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Think people believe he is a shit crosser because when we've played Hull in the past we've had 'decent' (in the loosest sense of the word) full backs applying pressure. Don't think he'll be under the same kind of pressure in our games this season, so should - with some luck - be a useful weapon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Happy with this. Bruce knows him and how to get the best out of him. Will work hard, knows the league and how to get out of it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
