2025/26 Dwight McNeil

22 PL goals and 36 assists aged 26. He's on course to finish his career being amongst the top 50%of prem assisters.

Is he brilliant? No. Is he rubbish? Well... draw your own conclusions.
 
If he is the best we can do I will eat my hat ,I hate the way he trundles back at about half the speed of their attackers .Well past the sell by date .

On that basis we should sign Rooney ,absolutely one of the best scorers ever .

Yeah, who in their right mind would sign Rooney? Not really sure what you're getting at here.

It was from your stats about goals and assists .
What I am saying is the past is the past and at present I wouldn't play him in a pub team .Yes he makes the odd pass or scores the odd goal but that is not enough .Could you see him in any other side in the top half of the division ? Can you not imagine another Illy instead ?

Yeah, spot on. The past is the past. Rooney is now a fat middle aged man, Dwight is 26 and playing prem footy. I'm still not sure what point you're
trying to make.
 
…..surely a new contract, if Palace comeback to the table it’s;

Look I’m absolutely made up for the lad, he’s played really well for us over the length of time he’s been here. Some massive goals and performances.

You have to put sentiment to aside he’s not good enough if this club has ambition to be a club competing for high level European football and hopefully trophies.

I would give him an additional year if he’d accept it, equally if Palace or any one else came back in for him, and at a price 20m or over, you take it.
