scumbag Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 it was on sky sports news a few days back that pompey were said to bid for him, personally, I think it is just a case of how much City will push them for, after all they have been watching him for months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhyde Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Portsmouth are not going to bid £2.5 million for Elliot.1) If there's anywhere on the park Pompey have strength in depth it's central midfield. Diop, Mendes, Davis, Hughes, Kranjcar, Mvuemba, Muntari are more than capable Premiership players who can play there already.2) Do you honestly think Harry will dip into the Championship transfer market quite so soon after the unmitigated disaster that is the signing of Nugent?3) They desperately need strikers generally and especially with the African nations looming and due to their limited funds will concentrate there on spending.I don't mind rumours but there need to be at least some logical thinking behind them.

Guest zider_head Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp is ready to do business in the transfer window with African Cup of Nations call-ups set to leave his squad at just 14 strong. (The Independent) Redknapp is hoping to swap striker David Nugent for Reading's out-of-favour Leroy Lita. (Daily Mirror) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristolCity4Life84 Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Dunno wether these rumours about Elliot are true or not, but personally i wouldn`t sell him unless we get a ridiculously large transfer fee for him (like around £5 mill would do). And even then we`d have to make sure that the money we got, would be spent on a player of equal or better ability that we`d already have lined up to replace him.

Red Head Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 'tis my biggest worry. Would hate to see Marv go, best player we have had at gate in years - couldn't blame him if he went though.Could Khazim Richards be a replacement - all speculation at the moment but is 2+2 is getting closer to 4?

tin Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 It's simple really... sell Marvin Elliott for whatever fee and the wheels will fall off drastically. Chance your arm and keep him til May, and we could be in the promotion shake-up, if not the Premiership itself. SL/CS keep harping on about the lack of ambition being shown by the fans and how they need to show up if they want Premier League football. Well, I dare say that we have to keep Marvin Elliott if we're to get anywhere near it at all.For the record, Colin Kazim-Richards is a lazy, cocky winger so there's no chance in hell we'd need him as a direct replacement for Marv. Besides, I'd be surprised if they sold him considering he scored for Fener in the Champions League a month or so ago and has broken into the Turkish national squad.

Redhyde Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Which of the 7 players i've listed for Portsmouth haven't played regularly in central midfield, are leaving, or are untested youth players? Portsmouth have enough hard working battling central midfielders hence letting Gary O'Neill go. With or without the African cup of nations.We have 4 players in serious competition for central midfield in Johnson, Elliot, Skuse and Noble. And we tend to play 3 of them! We have one player who's a midfield playmaker in Lee Johnson. We do need another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 I'd be more scared of the bottom Prem teams nicking Elliot, not the top ones. Derby, Sunderland, Wigan; all these could only be helped by the addition of a dynamic defensive midfielder like Mav. Only I doubt very much he'll leave. It could turn out to be the biggest mistake of his career or the best decision of his life, but either way he has everything to gain and nothing to lose in seeing out the season with us and then taking stock, if he actually wants to move that is (which I've not seen anywhere). He may very well be a great player but with olny six months at this level behind him he be well advised to stay put for now.Remember 'Cole Skus to Reading' back in August? Didn't that turn out to be utter balls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
