    No wingers or crosses equals no goals, Playing him as a battering ram down the middle is clueless

    No TBF Elliott looked quite lively when he came on-seems to have a bit of pace about him and actually won some headers.

    Lad comes on to a team with no shape or width whatsoever, having to feed on aimless balls pumped down the middle. We bring Elliott in, a player who thrives on width and we have one half decent winger at the club. Mark Marshall showed what a wide player does when he came on. We could always use January to bring a winger in........

    What did people expect? He won his flick ons and did about all he could in the time he was on. Can’t remember any crosses being out in for him to attack

    Only what others have posted as linked above. To be dropped without playing has to be a concern

    Elliot looks like an upgrade on Robinson. Anyone giving him stick need to shake their heads. He won most of his arial duels an besides the one moment where Cook should of played him through on goal but chose not to; he had no chance to make an attacking impact on the game

    I've just shook my head, and I still think he looked dreadful.

    I am by no means writing him off, just my personal observation on his performance today.

    Agreed, but for some you will have to give him a run of games to fully see what City have ended up with-
    Have no idea why Salford would have been happy to loan him to another club aiming to get in the top 7 places.
