Popular Post StriderHiryu Posted 11 August 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 11 August 2020 He is a very promising player and I think he'd come on leaps and bounds with someone like Rodgers coaching him. But you'll be talking Perez money (if not more) for him and for that amount I think there's better value out there. You'd probably be able to get Brooks for cheaper for example. He's got bags of potential though! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 Unless we play him wide right, this would be a silly signing. If we are insistent on getting a left winger for competition with Barnes then Benrahma all day long. But we need a right winger first and foremost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also there realistically needs to be a decision made by the club on Gray this window as he only has 1 year left on his contract, either sell him or give him a new deal rather than let him walk for free next year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdb Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 An excellent addition but he won't come cheap and right sided is more of a priority. Surely we can't afford him, a class RW, a CB and Mendy replacement...? With each passing rumour, the frustration of throwing away CL football increases.

dbtcity Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 Would 100% take him but the fact we scoffed at their price for Tarkowski I really can’t see us stumping up the ridiculous price they’ll slap on McNeil (they have every right to give him a hefty price tag for the record) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post South Shire Fox Posted 11 August 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 11 August 2020 Literally the left footed Albrighton, just spends the whole game whipping balls into the box but in our case there will be no one getting on the end of them. 😂 Burnley arent going to sell cheap so pointless tbh 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxes96 Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 Little nervous about signing a RW who’s normal position has been on the left, albeit I imagine that’s because of the way Dyche sets up pinging crosses onto Woods head. So would be interesting to see him on the right, looks a very promising player, but just can’t see Burnley parting with him cheaply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Hero Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 I'd sooner have Lutricia McNeal and until just now I'd forgotten about her for about 20 years. He's not going anywhere anyway. This is his agent hanging out for a new contract. I mean his agent has namedropped Juventus. The Juventus who haven't WON the CL and sacked their manager in a rage have identified DWIGHT MCNEIL as the solution to their woes to lead them to CL glory. Or not??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 He is basically a 20 year old Marc Albrighton, better crosser than he is goalscorer, never looked all that pacey, just a bit more skilful than Albrighton. The type of player who suits Burnley because he has Wood, Barnes and Rodriguez to cross the ball into. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haywood_6 Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 Would love him here. I think he's class. Reckon he'd be Intelligent enough to be able to play on the right if needed too. The fee would be a big one though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsr-burnley Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 (edited) He's under contract till 2023 with an option for another year. He also gives every impression of being very level headed and willing to take advice, and that advice from several public sources (don't know about the private sources of course) is to stay put for another year, jkeep playing every week, keep learning and improving.

Finnegan Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 I've never understood the hype, he's been bang average every time I've seen him. People getting excited about him seem to be the same people that get excited every time we're linked to a striker over six foot and who seem to think scoring headed goals from crosses has been relevant since 1983. Rodgers wants more goals from new style wide forwards who can fit in to a possession based passing game. Why hire a twenty year old Marc Albrighton replacement? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastAnglianFox Posted 11 August 2020 Share Posted 11 August 2020 (edited) I don't watch as much football as I used to but I swear he has been the next big thing for the last ten years even though he is only 20 and on the occasions I've seen him did absolutely nothing.
