Ruben Loftus-Cheek?
Didn't even know he was still playing.

I liked him at Chelsea however he is a tad injury prone if memory serves me right

Can’t say he would excite me, just another in the sancho category

Have to say Whack I agree with you.

At the moment we need bodies in the door and unfortunately bodies that are relatively cheap and I don’t think players that excite you come cheap. An ex England international for £15-20 million isn’t a bad deal in my view, as I said before my only concern would be fitness

Agree LotM. January notoriously bad for value.

The transfer fee seems ok but he would want big money, I’d rather raid the championship for an up and coming talent like we did with Roger’s, obviously Roger’s was an absolute gem and they don’t all work out like that but the risk is similar to Stirling and you won’t have to pay astronomical wages.
Liverpool certainly don’t seem likely to take Elliot back and supposedly he doesn’t want to go to the mls.

With Elliott I think he has only played for us 3 times so we can play him a further 6 times without triggering the obligation to buy. He can play anywhere across the frontline, surely we could make use of him particularly tonight as Onana, Kamara, and McGinn are all out I am really surprised Emery hasn’t been able to utilise him because in my view he’s a good player.

100% agree I find it weird he hasn’t squeezed a few more games out of him, I think he’s trying to send a message to Liverpool that we won’t be buying him and that’s that, maybe trying to force them into renegotiating but I genuinely think he’s doesn’t want him at any price let alone 35 million

Having seen the teams I worry about tonight, particularly the Duran/Asensio link

The problem with playing Elliott for even one more game is that we're basically telling Liverpool we do want/need him and they'll hold out hoping to get the £35m.
I personally don't rate him above bench cover, most of his Liverpool cameos have been either basic keep ball when winning or 'pass it to Salah'.
He made a difference for England U21s but so many players in the past have looked great at that level and not gone on to do much.
