2022/23 Dwight McNeil

[paulh116]

Scorer and largely creator of one of the greatest Everton goals I have seen….surely deserves a chance purely on that!

Hope he makes us all like plums for doubting him

Ffs my kid was sat next to me.

Bet when he slotted that one yesterday a few were deflated, a 3 0 home win, what are they going to moan about now

They’ll find something mate, nothing more certain!

What I loved about it was he created it out of nothing driving at the heart of the defence with no little skill and good pace something defences hate. The flick from Iwobi was masterful and he slotted like a good 'un he just needs a bit of luck and hopefully will kick on. He has skill this kid.

For someone who's not renowned for goalscoring his finishing ability has been second to none very clinical

Yeah there are none striker players like that, who have a sweet shot on them, Keane is another

It's from the game on Saturday, mate.

 

[riddick]

Work ethic and defensive contributions are two areas where he excels.
Pace not his strong suit, agreed.

Kind of surprised Onana isn't in that list.

Boring

The list is from last season, isn't it?

In fairness literally anyone who had a brain could tell he offers loads like this people just chose to ignore it because he played for Burnley, now they'll be quiet like they've had to be with Tarkowski. I believe there was a video put out before he signed that basically said he was a world class defensive winger based on loads of different metrics. Fair enough you want your forwards scoring and assisting but the defensive effort is massively important in the modern game too, there's a reason that every one of Patterson's best games came with McNeil in front of him.

If he can contribute 10 g/a in a season and help the likes of Patterson get forward too, as well as providing defensive help then he'll be an absolute snip at just £15m, I've said it since he signed that people just need to give him an actual chance. Too many fools judge a player on where they've played before like I've said with him and Tarkowski of course who's now become one of our best players instantly. 22 year old lad with a bright future, just needs a chance, especially with Calvert Lewin playing who he's barely shared the pitch with.

Tis. I'm awful.
