Would agree Elmo is better off further forward than a RB, as a wing back yes but if you want an out and out RB Elmo is not your man Rosenior would be the better fullback out of the 2

When we played 4-4-2 Rosie and Elmo worked well. Rosie was also a victim of the tactical switch to 3 - 5 - 2.
At his age now he needs to play and Brighton is a good place for him. For sure he wont have any problems starting games unless he gets injured or suspended.

He can also help Brighton take points off our promotion rivals. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

So we won't be signing another right back to replace him then?

It wont be top of the shopping list that is for certain. If the club did then there will be a Riot. As we are back in the championship it is a good time to give Brian Lenihan a chance when possible.

We can also take advantage of the loan system if the need is there.

Brian Lenihan has a grand total of two appearances in English league football, it's not much to go on.

I think we'll sign another right back, proving that Rosie's release was nothing to do with economics.

Unless any of them particularly want to leave we should be holding out for top dollar. It's not like last time when he had a team full of mercenaries. We have the core of a young, yet experienced, squad which we need to preserve at all costs.

The 3 mercenaries will be gone soon hopefully. The 3 who share much of the responsibility for our relegation.

For sure we shall be pricing our star players way out of the range that the PL bottom clubs want to pay.

FFS, as an example. Bournmouth paying £8m for Tyrone Mings. Madness.

The kid has to start somewhere and sometime. Loaning a right full back is different to signing one. To sign one will just add to fans anger over his release.

Top priority has to be 3 new strikers IMO. Daryl Murphy from Ipswich should be looked at as a priority. A proven championship goalscorer.
