You can't group Elvis in with those other players. He hasn't been given a proper chance because when he's been given half a chance he's been dreadful. We've lost two of our best players to long term injuries who play in the same position as him, this season has been absolutely made for him to make an impact, and he hasn't. Every time he's come on he's looked way below the level we require. He's either not good enough, or doesn't have a good enough attitude.
Hughton should read him the riot act now- you don't go moaning to the press because you're not getting picked. Work hard and make the manager pick you, or go somewhere else where you are good enough to play. Assume he'll do the latter.
This, with bells on. Elvis has had opportunities and has rarely looked anything other than bang average. If he was spot on in training and his attitude was right, he'd be impressing enough even in brief periods on the pitch in games to earn himself a start or two. He hasn't.
