This is definitely an attempt my o'neill to force our hand into buying him as people have already said. I guess we will find out for sure this weekend when we see if elmo is in sunderlands squad or not! My money is on him not being there.....
Yeah he is! Be a big loss if he went somewhere else but Bruce has done well so far with Transfers so I'm sure he'll have something up his sleeve should Elmo not return.
HDM: "Bruce has previously ruled out the possibility of signing the Egyptian on a permanent deal during the January transfer window.". Another loan...?
Just be grateful you've had him this long! He was sent out on loan to get games, which he has done now we want him back! The loan was never agreed for the full season! As for not needing him Bardsley is our only natural right back.
well if we dont buy him our seasons over regardless the fact we still need to bring in another striker and goalie ffs !
So now we need to replace Elmo to replace Aluko a new striker a new goalie all that without a transfer budget in January? After Bruce had to spend next seasons transfer budget on Brady and Meyler? I cant see us ending up in the automatics now. Playoffs will be pretty difficult if we dont sign a few people and somehow avoid any more injuries.
If i had to pick a replacement out Chris Burke From Birmingham would be ideal. Yep im just throwing a name out there
If Leicester have bid 2 million for him he will end up there. I cant see us buying him when we need so many other positions filled as well.
for the players we need to remain in the hunt for the automatic spot i think that might just do us in - Not really right to call **** out of MON - he needs his war chest and the loans weren't ours . We still need a genuine goal scorer for our run to continue anyway and Campbell would still be my last resort
