Why a 2 year loan? Is it so we can call him back and sell him after a year if he does well? If not then I really don't get it.
My local landlord is a Villa fan. Just explained to the I wife will have to pop in later to see him. Purely in the interests of research.
What did we pay for him? £7m? Great return on our investment. We are the opposite to Brentford in the fact we buy high lose for nothing or sell for **** all. An excellent business model.
To be fair, your not gonna get them all right, we haven’t done bad with investment in signings till Silva took over the sh1t storm. Since then not one player we have signed has a decent sell on value, if any value at all! Works hand in hand with the master that is Ehab!
Well, whether he's **** or not, still probably better than what we've got already. Let's not get too excited, 3 obstacles to overcome, well 4; Training ground/facilities, how under whelmed will he be? Can he pass the medical? Put a wheel lock on his car, so he doesn't go to lunch. Ehab.
Elphick given our current circumstances potentially could be a very good signing. Him and Burke a good pairing. He'd also make a better captain that Henriksen! That would also leave 3 centre backs on the sidelines, so one of them will be gone come January, goodbye Mr McDonald I suspect
Given that we seem as defensively solid as a wet paper bag at present, Elphick seems a sensible signing should it happen. Ridiculous that yet again we are left to one whole day to probably determine the destiny of our season.
I asked some villa fans. The consensus is he's ****. Well actually they said he's been really good whenever he's played but not one of Bruce's favourites and been treated poorly. They don't think he should leave.
