The Occasional Elder

[sage]

He seems to play the odd game then disappears, but is never mentioned by Warne re returning players.

There's been a few like that this season really - never really get it. You're right Elder had what many agreed was his best game for Derby then he's sort of disappeared. Fornah is another

I mentioned yesterday this is now the 4th spell he's been out of the team and has only completed 90 mins 6 times in his 25 appearances (2 of those in cup games). For a senior player who's probably on a decent wage for another 2 more seasons we should be getting a far more reliable player.

Can’t say I’m his biggest fan. Doesnt seem capable in an attacking sense, and is a bit ungainly as far as defending goes. Good corner for the winner vs Bolton but also remember him having a shocker on the half way like vs Burton (I think?). Sibley out of position is a better option.

Probably still struggling with the ankle sprain he picked up at Barnsley, but it's odd that he hasn't been mentioned in the injury round-up. Full-back/wing-back is a high impact position, so injuries aren't unusual, but his injury record at Hull was better than it's been here so far.

yes but he wasn’t under Warne’s coaching staff and methodology at Hull.

Grant McCann was his manager for most of that time. McCann has described his preferred style of football as "high-energy, high pressing, all action" which doesn't sound a million miles different to Warne's, so it's hard to imagine the training would be much less intense?
