GG may well start Elliott, but I think it would be a huge mistake. There may not be a right answer, but he is the wrong one.
His performance dictates he is the wrong choice, and its the wrong choice when considering the psychology of the team.
Unfortunately Johnson was weak in his last few starts, but bad play a month ago is less of a risk than bad play yesterday. Who cares if he hasn't been playing as much as Elliott if Elliot has been playing badly recently.
