2025/26 Dwight McNeil

About 2 years ago there were folks calling for him to get capped for England. didnt he turn down an option to play for someone else internationally. He scored some good goals for us and does better at 10 than 7. He has declined so much his player rating vs Leeds was a 3. We just have too many better 10's than him now. So basically we got 20M for someone doing nothing for us.
Who knows he is 26 and still has time to find a new purple patch. Hope he does.
Absolutely this, he played his part in keeping us in the premiership these last few seasons. I wish him nothing but good luck.
 
I can’t believe we’ve fleeced them that badly
I just see money flying around and dunno what's a good price for players anymore. However it seems like you can pay absurd transfer fees for players and if they are out of favor/benched still get almost as much as you paid for him.
 


Seem to be taking it well

I do not think that is entirely awful business. My view is that £35m on Brennan Johnson is a good deal for a player who has a proven track record when it comes to goal involvements.

Strand Larsen for £48m seems a bit steep but I think he will do well for Palace. The McNeil fee is questionably high in my view but excellent for us.
 
Wish him the best. Seems a decent lad and stepped up to help us when we were in desperate need with some crucial goals. We’ve moved on now and to get our money back for him is great business

Great business would be to make a profit. The fact we're struggling to make any money on him all these years later shows how bad he is.

I know some people have a soft spot for him because of the few goals he scored, but he is a really poor player at this level. One of the main reasons we were in relegation battles is the fact our whole attack was built around him.
