Confirmed Signing Dwight McNeil

[Nymzee]

Reading £15mil + 5 year deal ?

I have no info on it, just trusting the only ITK on GOT.

Just left work, no phone all day. Sees this is happening and now want to cry

Jesus Christ

7 goals in a 134 games and this is how we’re improving our goal threat

No doubt about it mate HE'S PROLIFIC AT NOT BEING PROLIFIC!!!

Minging.

 

[barneygumble]

Done some good stuff at The Athletic and BBC beforehand, limited to absolute drivel at The Echo.

Cant complain.

Came across like a nice fella whenever I’ve spoken with him.

Seems like he’s trusted at the club and speaks honestly when writing articles.

Thanks mate but try and keep my ITK status low key

My magic 8 ball says this is a good signing. I’ll report back after I sacrifice a goat and read the bones.

Edit: that’s ‘a goat’ not @MikelsGoat but thanks for all the words of support

Ive thought of that myself mate, i have a strange feeling hes going to be the MGW alternative. Its the only logical outcome.

And honestly, hes the more solid choice. MGW is probably the highest ceiling player, but McNeil has the lower floor.

Hes younger, and I know people go on about his returns, but he has 7 goals in 130 games v 1 in 65 for a guy in a better team.

He’s also contributed 17 assists in those 134 games

So if we’re lucky we’ll get a goal every 19 games and assist every 14

McNeils crossing ability is the reason why this might work and to get the best out of DCL. Gray and Gordon doesn’t work too well because they are so similar, they always try to take someone on and cut inside for the shot. We need something else. And hopefully this is it. Sometimes is good to just whip the ball in

 

[catcherintherye]

You need pace for that.

I dont think hes as slow as people say.

I fully take the point he doesnt have the acceleration modern wide forwards have. But he looks a powerful runner to me with a good engine.

People at Burnley always felt he would play in the middle of midfield as he got older.

Young and can put in quality crosses. Can also get Gray and Gordon off corners. Worth a punt.

And we have the best header of the ball in the PL with DCL...could be inspired.

 

[MACCA75]

At least he can take a corner I suppose.

Not sure what you mean here

Surely when you say BUT there should be a positive comparison written about McNeil lol

Cant compare the two players. Both young and quality.

Ideally we'd get both and rotate along with Gordon/Dele.
