I think some on here are looseing sight of what is really going on here.
Elmo is a boro player.
Brady is a manu player.
Elmo came here for 1 season only on loan.
If it worked out AND we get promoted, we have a option to sign him perminently for a agreed fee.
Thats IF boro want rid.
There is nothing to say o'neil won't tell us to pish off and stick him back in there squad for next season.
Brady was here last season and imo, he was too raw and not worth the hype.
He went back to manu and played 3 months in there reserves as a wing back.
That has totally changed him and this season he is a reverlation.
The first thing in Joycey and Fergies mind is can this kid make it in the manu first team.
If the answer is yes then we have no fooking chance of signing him.
The lads may be wearing our shirt but we don't own them.
They are hear for experence and gametime / development on behalf of there parent club first and foremost.
Everything else is irelivant
ELMO IS A BORO PLAYER !!!! when did that happen???
i'll take that one on the chin
