A right wing back who can also play in midfield.
Was on loan at Burton last season until January but got recalled and played 3 Championship games for Luton plus 2 cup games.
Happy that we’re going for youngsters who are relatively proven and not ones who are first year pro’s etc.

prize for the first person who complains ;-) A loan from Luton? Hard to get excited loaning a player from a club the same size, if not smaller, than ours … |

So looks like didn't get much of a look in |

He speaks very well, the concern is he hasn’t played many games but then that’s historically the case with a lot of our loans. Good luck to him.

MT clearly knows this lads talent and he should be full of confidence. We would be foolish to not utilize the 4 remaining loan places but I would also like to see some up and coming talent of our own.

We need a RWB so glad that area has been given some depth! 2 Elliot’s in 2 days. Who’s the next Elliot tomorrow…?!

This is more the kind of signing I was expecting from the new set up, and looks quite promising
Whilst he hasn't played much league football he appears to have been a regular in the Spurs youth sides and Premier League under 23 teams before joining Luton, which would suggest a technically good player. Guess the test is how he can adapt to the more physical side of league one - looks quite a slight player from the photos, so might need to work on that side of his development whilst with us

A loan from Luton? Hard to get excited loaning a player from a club the same size, if not smaller, than ours … ladies and gents , we have a winner Methinks he doth protest too much, just angling for the win I reckon.
Anyway, either way you can pencil Elliot in on the team sheet, could be EB or ET, unless ET goes home at Christmas this season too.
In development terms, does this mean Shrewsbury are considered a step up from a loan to Burton?
