AllRoverAsia 5799 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 3 hours ago, Eddie said: So, we should play an inferior player because then we won't go up, but we will get to keep them? And we should also play a less skilled player because, even if we don't go up, who cares about the pleasure of watching a talented player turn out for your side? Oh, and we shouldn't bring talented players in on loan because there is no way that they could possibly have an impact on the squad, influence other players, and pass on skills. And, finally, we shouldn't bring in players on loan because signing good players and showing that moving to Blackburn can be a good career move is in no way a good thing for the club to do and it can have no benefits on future transfers or contract negotiations. Makes sense. Glad you agree He will be gone soon enough. I hope your legacy projections come true. And yes being selfish I do enjoy watching Harvey play and will enjoy his skills whilst he's here.

ben_the_beast 628 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I wouldn't say it's completely beyond the realms of possibility to get him back for a second season on loan. I'm sure liverpool are probably pretty pleased on how we are handling him and the game time he's getting. Still don't see him being anywhere near their starting line up. Biggest threat would be a premier league team wanting to loan him next year. Assuming we aren't there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Biggest threat would be a premier league team wanting to loan him next year. Assuming we aren't there. To be honest - if he continues to improve (and let's be honest for all the hype he has had more than one average game) - there is no way he will be with us next season unless we are promoted (even then only on loan). While he is with us, we just have to enjoy the skills of a player that (at the moment) looks destined to be a top player. He is looking like the best loan we have had since Archibald.

Hasta 3596 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 His vision to pick out a pass forward is something we haven't seen in a very long time. I recall Berkovic coming in and having the same ability at this level back in 2001. Difference being this lad is only 17 and has hardly played any professional football.

philipl 7032 Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 This is great news. Harvey is on a season loan with no break clause. https://readliverpoolfc.com/2020/12/18/mowbray-harvey-elliott-blackburn-loan-liverpool/?utm_medium=onesignal&utm_source=push_notifications&utm_campaign=web_push Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bazza 1649 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Elliott is adding far more to Rovers than the young Beckham did to PNE IMHO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
only2garners 1677 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 It’s not just your opinion Bazza. Beckham played a grand total of 5 games for North End in the bottom tier - was it Division 4, Division 3 or League 2 then? He was also 19, not 17. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gavlar Somerset Rover! 4976 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 (edited) How did he get a player of the month nomination?! He was very average in Jan, at best. Edited February 12 by Gavlar Somerset Rover! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RevidgeBlue 8171 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I think he's been really poor for quite a while but this has been masked somewhat by the fact that in some games where he has otherwise contributed absolutely nothing, he has popped up out of nowhere with a clever assist. If this is adequate for you then fair enough. He's a player who clearly has a lot of natural talent and in years to come may turn out to be a very good player. However I think he's miles short of being the world beater he is constantly hailed as and given the same amount of game time I'm not sure Dolan would have contributes any less.

jim mk2 8747 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I think you're being unfair Rev. The lad's about 17, he's not fully grown and he's still a baby in football terms, and his form has dipped a bit but his ability sticks out like a sore thumb in our team of plodders and he never gives less than 100%.

Jpath19 0 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I entirely agree with Rev’s post. I do see a good, potentially great player in him. I’m just not sure he is a player we need in our starting lineup right now. Most games over the last couple of months I’ve found him to be one of our worst performers. I understand he’s young but we can’t afford to carry an underperforming player and provide excuses for him. Many games in the Championship are a battle and I don’t think Harvey physically has it in him to aid us in those games. Defensively he doesn’t offer us anything and if it’s a game where he isn’t afforded the time to put his foot on the ball then he disappears. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know it's a Elliot thread but you could say that about any of them. Shit manager who can't motivate himself never mind young vibrant lads. He's knocking the spirit out of them. Hes a feckin moodhoover is Mowbray just look at him on friday in comparison to AN , getting his lads in and constantly encouraging and cajoling them through the game....the kids need that every game at this level, Mogadon hasn't got it in him anymore.

Watching the match I was amazed - this was a local derby and yet TM sat emotionless for much of what I saw. If players look at the touchline and see TM chewing gum - looking like a bulldog sucking a wasp - how are they going to be motivated ? Part of TM's job is to set them up tactically and to motivate them - on Friday he failed miserably in both aspects. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's good out wide but in the middle he's lost. Mowbray should have known this within 10-15 mins of him playing there and switched him back, but no he had Gallagher (who naturally should be in the middle) where Elliot should have been and Armstrong on the left who had scored 16 goals up to that point. Utterly nonsense management that almost everyone else and their blind dog could see from a mile. Expecting a 17 year old to do that job, and sacrificing other more capable players in that position is idiocy on an epic scale. Edited February 15 by booth Quote Link to post Share on other sites
