Horses for courses mate, ive no problem with any team using what is available to their best advantage, dont know to much about the lad, know he's rated but he has to suit our style of play otherwise it's a waste of time and money. 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SecretPro Posted 12 August 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 12 August 2020 I'm told by somebody at the golf club connected to the club and who has previously been hit and miss that we are £32m in for McNeil. Take from that what you will. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nettle Posted 12 August 2020 Share Posted 12 August 2020 Decent player if you ask me got a bit of everything can play on both wings. Also after watching him a bit at the end of the season he takes people on and drives forward quickly with ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put that into perspective Chris Wood has improved as a player since he left us though. Burnley do play to his strengths, something that we never did.

No its because you stick a hundred people behind the ball and hope that Ashley Barnes can fall over in the box at the right moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SO1 Posted 12 August 2020 Share Posted 12 August 2020 (edited) I've avoided this thread like the plague. Guess I was a bit disappointed that we haven't got Trincao over the line(yet). Really had my heart set on a speedy, skillful, Portuguese, Left footed, right winger. How sexy is that. Dwight Mcneil from Burnley? Who the hell is that? Just spent some time on You Tube and I can see the point now. Why can't a skillful, English, strong on the ball, physical, left footed, left winger be converted to an left footed attacking player who can play anywhere across the front three? He doesn't have the speed of Trincao, but maybe he adds a dimension our attack badly needs. Physicality. Besides Trincao is not dead yet..............Gerribothmnnnn!

I can clearly remember them saying it was something to work on. His leap is pretty poor whereas Vardy has a great leap.
