Waffle Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Watching Swindon earlier this season with Elsnik as their focal point. I would love to see us invest in him to step up. I believe he is more than capable to be the lynch pin of our midfield next season and I am genuinely excited with the prospect of him, Guy and Bogle being introduced to the team.

tomsdubs Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 He was beast for them, goal scoring midfielder arriving in the box. Liked what I saw, looks physically ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaffsRam Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Likely introduction to the first team: "Curtis, Bradley, Scott, this is Timi Elsnik, Callum Guy, and Jayden Bogle....we've just sold them to Scrubchester City for 10p and a value box of monster munch."

desirelines Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Haven't seen him play, but looking forward to seeing some of the younger lads play next season. I just hope that the fans allow them to the odd mistake before they start groaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Roy, I just have a sense that given a run he might show something. He can tackle. He has a turn of speed and can pass reasonably well. It’s true at times he disappears a bit, as if the game passes him by and he doesn’t always make the best decisions but he’s tidy. I also have a (maybe rose tinted) memory when he stepped into the DM role due to George and Mascarell being injured and he had a particularly good game.

Just not impressed with the latest glimpses under Rowett and the 23s - fair amount of late clattering of opponents, not too much else. Would rather Guy or Vernon, I think.

DCFC1388 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 To me he reminds me of a mix of both Hendrick & Hughes, he has the physicality and powerful running of a Hebdrick but also a quality touch and pass with his left foot like Hughes. Similar style of player to a Tom Cairney the way he moves around the pitch. I hoped he would've around the first team the season just gone so realky hoping he is in and amongst it next season.

TheHomunculusLives Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Like any young player, we won't know with Elsnik until he has the opportunity to start a few games at Championship level. Based on his under-23 performances and his impact at Swindon prior to the change of manager, it seems he is ready to be given a chance. But you could say the same about Callum Guy. Most of us want to see youngsters given a chance, but often it's about being the right place at the right time. Hughes and Hendrick were blooded at a time when we were struggling and very short of money. Would they have been given the same chances if Johnson, Thorne, Huddlestone, Ledley and Butterfield were all at the club at the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
