Blackburn Rovers fans are raving about Harvey Elliott. The teenager put in another fine performance for the club on Wednesday.

Harvey Elliott impressed Blackburn fans once again on Wednesday. The 17-year-old loanee played the full 90 against Bristol City.

Rovers actually lost the game but not for a lack of effort from Elliott. He created a massive six chances in the game, while he didn’t get tackled once.

It’s just a shame that none of his teammates were able to convert, then.

And after the game, Rovers fans hailed Elliott for his performance. They believe he’s a very special player with a very high ceiling.

What RTK has to say

It’s all so impressive. Elliott is just 17, playing his first full senior season, and at a new club.

But he’s thriving. It seems like every week there’s something to rave about, be it an extraordinary goal or that he’s a creative force.

Creativity appears to be Elliott’s strong-suit, too. Going over his stats for the season suggests so – this isn’t even the first time he’s created six chances in a game.

But arguably more impressively is how consistent he is at creating. In 12 Championship games, he’s only once had an appearance where he didn’t create anything.

That’s outstanding. He created multiple chances in seven out of those 12 games. This is a 17-year-old kid we’re talking about.

We’ll expect Elliott to improve all season and be a much better player at the end of it. But as for where he’ll be in two or three years? It feels like the sky’s the limit right now.

Elliott is clearly above Championship level and we simply can’t wait to see what he can do with proper Premier League experience.

What a player.
