As far as I am aware the offside law is the same in The Netherlands!

Styles of play are very different though. Manu will have had little experience of sides pushing up as high and at such pace. It takes adjusting to and if you're in s bad place emotionally that adjustment becomes massive

Then if they are pushing high up, surely that gives him more space to run into, which should suit his game. Emotions do not come into offside. Sorry Severnside really don't agree.

The Huddersfield fans seem somewhat undecided about Elvis on their forum, although this did make me chuckle.....

The way our luck is going we'll probably just find him dead on the shitter


:lolol:

Excellent.

He's back with us for the Middlesbrough game, and the playoffs.

Don't leave me now
Now that I need you
How blue and lonely I'd be
If you should say we're through

Not :lolol:

With games coming up against Derby, Burnley, Sheff Wed :lolol:, Boro and Hull, in the next 6 weeks, lets hope that form continues and he hurts some of our promotion rivals in a similar way that JFC did against Derby.

From the match report v MK Dons:

"After helping to change the game at Wolves at the weekend as a second half sub, January loan signing Elvis Manu had to make do with another place on the bench against MK Dons.

Brought on at the break, his powerful running and direct style was a prickly thorn in the side of the hosts’ back line and his fresh legs were a welcome boon for the ten men of Town.

However, as well as his bursts forward, his willingness to track back was impossible to miss.

One particular moment stood out, when the men in white strode ominously forward only to find Manu charging back to rob the ball inside the penalty area, take it all the way back to the halfway line and win a free kick for good measure.

It’s easy to see why David Wagner likes the Dutch winger and moved to bring him in for the rest of the season.

Now he has had time to adjust to the team and the system, it’s time to give some tired legs a rest and see what Manu can do from the start against Ipswich."
