shermanator Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 what's that based on? He hasn't played much. Base on Vince's shtick; being the unhappiest person on the board about everyone and everything in Canadian soccer. El Hombre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VfB Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 He's a midfielder, not a full forward and he plays in the best 3rd League of the world. Sometetimes he's too hasty because he doesn't have experience on that level but he definitely shows that he's one of the most talented players in Stuttgart. Very fast, good technique.

shermanator Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Just a couple items of note, Elva is out with a torn hamstring according to Canucks abroad. And this tweet from Canada Soccer confirms he would have made his U-20 debut had he been healthy for the last camp. jpg75 and toontownman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Awesome news on Elva (that he can now play for us, not the torn hammy)! Also confirms there is no difference between someone gaining citizenship before or after 18 if they apply for exemption under the non-existent youth residency rules.

So far the non-footballing reasons exemption is holding up, the problem is what happens if it stops. I'm surprised they haven't just written it into the rules as the point wasn't to screw immigrant's kids soccer future but to stop Aspire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just too much power behind these confederations to let that it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should bring back the 2 year residency rule for those under 18 and figure out another way to prevent the Qataris from messing around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarnado1555362291 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Stuttgart has been relegated to the 2.bundesliga and the reserve team also going down to regionalliga. Elva had 21 appearances including 11 starts in the third tier, wonder if he'll be part of the first team squad. They will be aiming for nothing short of promotion back to the top league so should be interesting to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruffian Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 How is his injury reported in early April? Canada Soccer said he would previously have been called if he was not injured. Does this mean if he is ready to play he will be called for the CanU20 team to be called later this month? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shermanator Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Elva did play on April 22 and April 30, so I would assume he is good to go if called. I don't think he will be called to the U-20 camp since the announcement said it would be for 1997 and younger. Maybe he could be there for the June senior team camp?

He was actually listed as injured for the past two games. "Muscle problem" if I recall correctly. No idea of the extent of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorpion26 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 How is he rated by coaching staff? Is he close to making onto the first team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrock Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 In the first half of this season he was training with the first team regularly. But he was set back to the Second team because he didn't get any plating time. Then he got injured and only started playing again towards the end of the first half. Considering he's playing at a lower level than last season, maybe he just ask for a nice loan-deal to a 3. Liga club for next season.
