Yeah, exactly what I was thinking - decision-making might just be his best attribute. He plays the game at high tempo, moves the ball quickly and efficiently and isn’t afraid to take risks. Our combination play is better with him in the side.
This thread is just about to come NSFW I fear....
I think Carvalho is more like Gotze – someone who looks like a creator/playmaker, but is actually a natural goal-scorer. Elliott is more of a creative #8 type for me, a bit like Lallana, but hopefully better.
Iniesta?
Well, that's a lofty comparison and the style is quite different. I don't think we'll need to search too hard for comparisons once Elliott really shows what he's about this season.
It is. No way Iniesta will be remembered as being as good as Elliott.
Only if he spreads himself across the pitch more
I told you not to turn on the sound!
They also seem a lot more comfortable with the ball and less likely simply to get rid of it under pressure.
Brilliant from Harvey there. I'm more confident than ever after reading that that he'll make it big with us, because that's the action of a young man at ease with himself.
[article]The Liverpool number two has waxed lyrical over Elliot's talent in his new book, 'Intensity: Inside Liverpool FC', and made a particularly bold comparison when analysing the teenager's talent.
He wrote: "There is no such thing as like for like in football, but Harvey Elliott has some of the ingredients of Andres Iniesta and thinks like a creative midfielder."[/article]

All great players are eventually eclipsed. We're allowed to dream
Come on guys...
He didn't write that, surely? Though I'm sure he approved the message...
You can have the same style without being as good.
Like Iniesta being like The Boy but nowhere near as good.
Yeah, I guess.
Couldn't give a fuck about Iniesta - but the first part of your post, now that has my interest ...
Pulp Fiction
You guys and girls do know in 6 years time we will be looking to see who is the next Elliott.
I think some of you have forgotten much about Iniesta.
I was just watching his vids on YT the other day and thought what an incredible genius. The lad’s one of the best of all time.
Harvs nowhere near him atm I’m afraid.

Iniesta was absolutely the dog's doodahs. Harvey's an excellent young player and will get better still but I'm sure those who saw Iniesta play are just joshing here.
