Harvey on loan to Brighton?

Surely not without a replacement.

14 Jan 2025 07:24:56
I would try and swap him for Baleba.

14 Jan 2025 07:25:18
If there was an obligation to buy that would make sense, if not then not sure it’s in our interest to let him go.

14 Jan 2025 07:46:15
I would not let him go anyway think he is a great squad player who is happy at the club. Feel he deserves more minutes than he has got this season though.

14 Jan 2025 07:52:39
Slot looks to be scything the squad down with little emotional attachment.

14 Jan 2025 07:54:24
Slot doesn’t seem to rate Harvey. Surprising in a way because Harvey could probably play a Zubimendi type role, although Zubimendi is a bit more mobile and more experienced right now.

14 Jan 2025 08:04:32
Harvey is nothing like zubimendi.

14 Jan 2025 08:21:47
Do people forget he was out for months with a broken foot, he'll get plenty of minutes it's a long season and loads of games coming up.

14 Jan 2025 08:35:49
Elliott's just too weak to play in our midfield and too slow to play out wide for us. Very few players are good enough both technically and tactically to get away with having no physical attributes. I think he should go to Germany or Spain personally where he could probably play for top club. If he stays in England, he'll probably need to go to a midtable side like West Ham, Brighton, Tottenham or Man United ?.

I think harvey is perfectly capable of being a star in this league and this club. I think its only a matter of time before slot brings him in more. I do think fitness is an issue. I could be massively wrong but I truly think he could end up becoming a captain for us.

14 Jan 2025 09:03:22
I agree MKS, it’s a shame because I love Harvey.

I think his physicality can be offset by his determination. However, combined with his lack of pace makes him a peripheral player at best. And I am not sure he wants to be a peripheral player here.

Still have no idea of how Slot wants his midfield setup because he seems to be almost playing with Klopp’s midfield. Grav sitting at the base is a change in style but not personnel. Both McAllister and Szoboszlai being played out of position still. Weird how successive managers have not thought about swapping the latter two around.

14 Jan 2025 09:14:52
I agree with MK and St Etienne, he hasn’t got the physicality to make it with us, he’ll be on the bench unless we get injuries. The only reason I see him potentially working better centrally is his lack of pace isn’t quite as critical there, and he’s got good passing range. His physicality would still be a problem though .

14 Jan 2025 10:13:09
I think Szoboszlai is wanted further forward for his pressing qualities and Macca is wanted deeper for his passing qualities and tenacity in a 50/ 50. It makes sense, but against certain team with a powerful runner in the no.10 position, Macca can and has struggled (Wolves/ Cunha, Newcastle/ Joelinton, Forest/ Gibbs-White etc) . He turns slower than milk.

With what slot wants from his midfielders though, Elliott has no real place in there as a regular. He's totally ineffective in the press as he's too slow to close someone down and too small for them to be intimidated by him running at them; he just gets brushed aside. If he sits deeper he has the passing range, but he looks genuinely hurt after nearly every 50/ 50 he contests and we've never even seen him there to know if he has the defensive awareness to cope. I honestly think he needs to be in a team that don't press so he can be a purely creative No.10.

{Ed001's Note - Harvey can't lack that much physicality when he did so well in the Championship - a much more physical league than the Prem. He is not as slow as you are making out either.}

14 Jan 2025 10:37:06
Ed001, he played RW in the Championship for Blackburn though, not in midfield. I only saw him a few times for them but in those games he was also playing very wide so he had time and space. He's not slow, but he's not quick enough to beat a Premier League full back, and he just gets brushed off or side stepped when he tries to press. I hate being harsh on him, but no matter how hard I try I can't see how he fits into the midfield in a Slot team. I'd love him to succeed here but I can only be honest. I appreciate you prefer him to Mac Allister though and respect your views on it. If he stays here then I think it's purely as cover for Mo Salah unless a new manager comes in and has a different idea.

{Ed001's Note - I wouldn't play him as a winger, but he is plenty mobile enough to play in midfield and the modern game doesn't need much in the way of physicality in the press. At least he doesn't roll around on the floor pretending to be hurt while the opposition overruns the rest of the midfield.}

14 Jan 2025 11:15:49
To be fair I do wish Macca would cut that out Ed001. We’re a big club, we’re not Arsenal!

14 Jan 2025 11:29:56
Personally think Elliott has the same attributes as Bernardo Silva, only he isn’t a complete c**t.

14 Jan 2025 13:20:27
Right VV.

Eliott is a better player and has shown it here than what MKS is saying. We all see things differently and that is the beauty.

He is ahead than Jones in attributes and game intelligence. (includes maccallister) . all my pov.
