Any links to see these Elliot goals? Haven't really cared to follow the Premiership lately since our players' form is more or less irrelevant for now.
The indo is a phucking rag and I hate Mc Derrmott for all his kerr hate mail
Jaysus, I feel for the poor lad he's had a horrible run of late. It would make you think that there's a much bigger underlying problem to these consistent injuries and I would hope that it's addressed sooner rather than later...
I think it would be best for Elliott now to write the rest of the season off and concentrate on being fully fit for the Championship campaign next year where, hopefully, he'll start a lot more games and get scoring goals again...
Still think he'll turn out to be a very important player for us in the future if (big IF!) he can stay fit...
Best of luck to him...

Out for 2 months. That lad is a lost cause and is clearly very injury prone. Shows that no chance of building any team a round him in the future... I think he will never be more than bit part player for Ireland. Also can't see a big club signing him in the future with his injury record...
Well at least Murphy and Long will get some more playing time.
It's a great shame but what can you do.

very sad news really. i remember watching keith o neill in a friendly against croatia years ago and he was so energetic and scored a great goal and looked like the future partner for robbie but that was the last impact he ever made. agree that it looks pretty bleak for him but at least doyle has come through.
what a stupid comment . A lost cause ffs he is still a young lad yet and just before the injury scored a cracking goal . Who knows how he will progress when he comes back and hopefully been coached by keane will take him to another level .Quote:

I am saying he will always be either be injured opr coming back from injury. I never said he wasn't a good player, just like other talented players injury prone.Quote:

It doesn't look good but I wouldn't write him off just yet, he's only 22.
If he is still picking up regular injuries into his mid twenties then you could be right.
Sadly, I fear the Keith O'Neill comparison may prove accurate. Hopefully he's just being unlucky.

He is too injury prone. He needs games if he's to develop as a player and he's not going to get them sitting in the treatment room. Every 4 or 5 games he plays he seems to get injured. After a very promising initial season I can't remember him going more than 2 months without picking up some sort of injury. His career seems to be going backwards instead of progressing.Quote:

the season before last but that doesnt make him a lost cause .. as someone already pointed out gerrard was injury prone for a few years when younger but has stayed clear from injuries now .. Elliott is far from a lost cause yet.Quote:
