Spot on .
I think the only season we started well was the season we qualified for the CL. And that season we were rubbish in the second half !
Moyes only does half seasons 🤣
Accept all that - but the only way to improve relative to your rivals (if we can call Palace, Brentford, and Bournemouth our rivals) is to outperform them. We're currently not doing that in the market.
He'll be the next Moise Kean or Lookman. Young and with talent, but the manager doesn't have the time to nurture it because the squad is an unbalanced mess.
Building a good squad requires you to have decent backup, why would we sell Mcneil when he’s a proven performer at this level. Just doesn’t make any sense at all does it?
For me he’s still one of the better players in the squad. If we’re going to hit the next level though, he’ll likely be a bit part squad player stepping in when we’ve got injuries. If it wasn’t for his lack of pace he’d be a regular starter.
I sort of agree with this - and 100% right about sentiment, too.
But McNeil , Garner and Beto are funnily anough precisely the characters I'd keep as squad, subs and injury cover.
Patterson, yeah. Myko (sadly) for me, Keane, Seamus will retire...
