wilko154 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Kodjia, El Ghazi and Bolasie on the bench and we play Elmohamady at right midfield... I don't get this... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certianly not as a winger. It is ludicrous that we're still playing him there. At RB he's fine—he can cross for a start, which is something Hutton can't do.

Dr_Pangloss Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Would be very good at right back for us, better than Hutton, but as a winger, just no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Can’t tell you how mad it drives me to see this guy as one of our main attacking players. He started there last season and Bruce nearly got the sack it was so terrible. Snoddy came in and low and behold we started to look like a football team. It blows my mind that he would start the season again doing the same thing. Given the options we now have it is even more mental. Either Bruce has completely lost his mind or I have. Genuinely not sure which is true at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROTTERDAM1982 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Sums up Bruce for me, steady, safe, not inspiring, bang average. Won't let you down , but won't get you anywhere either. You can't play him and Albert in the same team if you want to get promotion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOTTI-THE-GOD Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 What annoys me the most with this bloke is his natural position is a RB ok no problem , so why then does he seems to go missing for most of the second half in games offering very little help to the poor bloke playing RB behind him, you'd think as a natural defender he'd no how important it is to offer support when the opposition are attacking. It's like Tom Cleverley all over again under Lambert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like Tom Cleverley all over again under Lambert. The truth is, he is not a right back, and at this level he is no longer a right winger. He's just someone who can be relied upon to "do a job", and that is why he is in the team. Also, he is a target for goal kicks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Aiming goal kicks at Elmohammady is a Bruce tactic for nearly a decade now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 He was pretty good at right back last season. He was very reliable. With our wing options, Elmo should be at the bottom of that list, and only player if we need a more defensive approach late game, or everyone else is hurt. Elmo should be the first choice right back imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Beginning to think he's Bruce's love child, there's no other logical reason for him to be starting games, his performances aren't justifying his inclusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 No problem with him at right back, he's our best one. Needs to stop being played further up now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 That moment when Bruce screams at Elmo to find a pass and stop putting nothing balls into the channel. Have you not watched him for the past 7 years? Still, he played well. He's not a right back but he does a job when you don't have to defend much. You know what you're gonna get.
