Wasn't too bad at Southampton. Regarded as highly rated and our scouts really wanted him.

Maybe the problem is our scouts?

He's been rated as one of the best young English players coming through for a few years now.

Spurs wanted him last January as well as a couple of foreign clubs.

You only need to watch his performance against Man Utd last season or his energy and defensive pressing against us to see what hes about.

Its not about his quality, thats for certain.

Its Moyes not starting teenagers

You see I don't like McNeil, but he was very good when he came on against Forest last time

No, no he was not "very good".
 
I really hope McNeil proves us wrong. I really do.

I just don’t think he’s got it in him any more. I’d be pleasantly surprised with a 6/10 performance from him.
He looks utterly bereft of any belief or confidence in his ability. Whether that’s because he’s gone from being first choice to a backup, or there’s something gone on in his personal life I don’t know, but this club will keep getting its kecks pulled down every time it puts its eggs in the “PL experience” basket without a shred of tactical or genuine objective thought gone into it.
 
Huijsen starting for Madrid this season and also signed and started by Iraola last season.

185 games no teenagers started by Moyes.

Massive difference in squad and team recruitment and building.
 
Some on here believing that Moyes may have changed (improved/developed) since the last time he was here should now be able to see he is what he is & there is no changing him,
You can know exactly what he is and still be disappointed every time he reminds you.

Cannot overstate how much I hope he’s not here at the start of next season.
 
And yet everyone will pile in on Moyes for picking McNeil and completely ignore this fact.
Rubbish. People are irate because we KNOW we are already at a huge disadvantage and our manager insists on making it even bigger.

Of course, he's already conceded this match in his head. His apologists will be along to excuse him of any accountability later.
