Harvey Elliot seems to be doing well on loan, hope he might make it here soon enough. 4 goals & 8 assists in 20games in the championship.

Maybe he has found his true level, like a few others we either sold or loaned out to championship clubs.

Hes only 17,(if your meaning Elliot). I dont think players really develop until they are at least 23.. Of course show glimpses here and there. But over all i think it takes time for a player to become productive season in season out. Again of course there have been players at a very young age who have made it.. Ie Michael Owen and Shrek.

Yes, was talking about Elliot. Wisdom is another one, never made it here, but seems to be doing ok at Derby. Brewster did ok at Swansea on loan, now back in the premier league but can't get a proper look in at the bottom club. When most leave club on loan, it's usually the first step to a permanent deal. Not many come back and make it here.

Wisdom got given a decent chance and he was 21? around that age. You cant expect Elliot to be running riot in a wide area at the age of 17 in the Premier league ..Brewster went to the wrong club.. Wrong style of play. Swansea are a possession based team So suited him better. But i don't think he would have filed the hype that surrounded him anyway..But hes only young. time will tell.
