2022/23 Dwight McNeil

[KaiserEFC]

I know he’s supposed to have this great left foot but he’s never in the area of the pitch to use it. He can’t run there because he’s slow and can’t beat a man so we need to be giving him the ball up the pitch which doesn’t appear to be happening

His stats for Burnley show he is a good crosser of the ball, they also show that Burnley had some terrible finishers.

We'll see. I doubt he'll ever be good enough for us.

 

[Furey1878]

A truly baffling signing that eradicates most of the goodwill generated towards Thelwell and Lampard

I think it does if you're the kind of person that was waiting for the first chance to pounce, mate.

Fair enough bud, but he was brought in to get good balls into the striker. Let's just wait and see what he does once he's got someone to aim at.

I'm willing to give them all the time in the world TBH - My only requirement for this season is not to get relegated

That I am doubtful in their capabilities to achieve even that meagre goal is worrying

 

[Toffee-nerd]

Let's be honest he looks like a player of the quality his record suggests. Needs to up his game or he's gonna be another dud.

Nothing footballer, happy to make the numbers up.

Just to add to my comments earlier, this is a Burnley fan;

• problem with Dwight was always he isn't quick, playing him out wide is a disaster. Has a decent cross on him but extremely one footed and can't beat a man in a race

So if he's a bit meh on the wing, where are we playing him?

 

[MikeH72]

I don’t understand this signing.

 

[EGWToffee]

By the looks of it we got the wrong player. Should have got cornet

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

Terrible footballer. Too one footed too one dimensional. How has he conned Rafael Beneathus, Frank Lampard, Kevin Thelwell and Marcel Brands. What is our chief scout cooking? Is he his uncle

He isn't poor on the wing but clealy he can't play wide right.

Play him at left wing back

I think it's pretty clear that our transfer dealings this season have consisted of us ticking the box on Football Manager that says 'Initial Payment under £5m' and see what players the system spits out

The only understandable reason why we signed McNeil over Cornet

 

[brian labone]

I said when when we bought him, we bought the wrong winger.

 

[banno]

Disappointed so far but a few games to settle in should see him be useful
