Tomaszk Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Eliasson has a very low ceiling. Worth noting he made loads of chances that Bristol City didn't finish off last year though. Not what we need to be doing in that position though. We need to be signing starting wingers to push AEG and Trez into the sub role, not signing more back-up level players. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Why do I get the feeling that the people criticizing Elliason have probably hardly ever seen him play, if at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen him tons of times. He's no where near the ability we need. Quick out of the blocks in a sprint, can do a step over while standing still, that's it.

Trickster Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Fourth Official isn't an ITK account. It used to try to be years ago when it was posting stories that had just broke as their own. Then they changed their tune and did the 'I'm just reposting news from other sites, I never claimed to be ITK' when thats what they were clearly pretending to be with the way they were posting. Guy is an Everton fan and beyond their stuff he isn't any sort if ITK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I've never seen Eliasson play or if I have I haven't noticed him particularly. If we were to sign I think it would probably be more of a back up option, which would lead me to wonder that maybe one o El Ghazi or Trezeguet might be leaving. Now things are getting getting busy we will get many of these kind of links, most will come to nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fast so good as someone to throw in in the second half against tired Championship defenders. Stats only tells you so much. I mean if we ship out Trez and ElGhazi and bring in 2 quality wide players Eliasson would be an OK bench option to come in in the last 10 of a game to run. That's it.

Nah only watched a few highlights on Swedish telly. The fact that he's never been close to the national side and is far far behind Sebastian Larsson in the pecking order tells you what you need to know.

But he's 3rd for assists overall, Benrahma is 10th. I know not the alchemy needed, but if Lange thinks this is a good purchase, I'm all for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets crosses into the box, something our current pair consistently failed to do. Just from the video as I've not seen him play live.... His crossing looked a bit hit and hope, his movement is all a bit staccato so the ball never quite looked under control, for a pace merchant he didn't seem to run away from anyone, his bag of tricks is limited, his technique was bang average at best, he seemed to play with his head down on the ball unless he is acres of space so situational awareness not great and there was some bad decision making/blind alleys run down and all this in a highlight reel. It is not an impressive video and all I am doing here is reviewing said video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
