Nah, bring him back and get him in the team from the off. He's played premier league football for Fulham. If he's good enough he's old enough. Rooney, Owen, Giggs, Sterling all came through at 17. All arguably at their best in the early years when they were fearless, unknown and full of confidence.

You don't know what will happen with injuries etc. I don't think the plan was to give Curtis Jones so much footy this season but injuries to Thiago and with Hendo and Fab playing out of position (or also injured) has allowed this fella to make a **** load of appearances.
Also, i think it depends on what Jurgen thinks is going to happen with Oxlade, Shaqiri and possibly Keita too. I wouldn't be surprised to see us evolve as a team and sometimes play a 4-2-3-1 position and if Elliot was even a squad player, then it's likely that he will get a fair amount of playing time.
He has done well at Blackburn. Really well. But he must watch LFC games, see the likes of Divock warming up for the ****in laugh and think "**** i'd fancy myself being better than him and ahead of him in the pecking order"
Suppose it will also depend on if we are playing CL footy or not. If we are in the Europa, then that will give Elliot even more game time.
