2024/25 Dwight McNeil

[Eggs]

But we’ve started scoring from open play,
Which hardly ever happened under the last dinosaur

….yep, it’s much better now but that doesn’t detract from my point. If McNeil was available to Moyes it would also make us more potent from set-plays, I’m sure he’d welcome that.

Actually insane that people are trying to argue he is bad. Something tells me people are desperate for him to fail because of where he came from and who he played for. People have tried to get their shots in on Tarks too but luckily for him our defense has been in the top half for a minute so he got a pass. We have not seen him under Moyes yet. He was one of the better players under Dyche. I suspect he will prove everyone wrong per usual

Still joint highest assists for the team and he's been out since December. Also joint 3rd highest goalscorer.

Says a lot.

Job of work is to make him a squad player in my opinion, do that and we have improved.

I agree with that. I like Dwight and look forward to him coming back this season and contributing next season. But I'd like to get to the position where he isn’t a guaranteed starter.

I look at a team like Bournemouth and they've got David Brooks as a squad player because of quality elsewhere. We need a squad that at least matches Bournemouth...

It was pretty impressive what they brought of the bench against us in autumn with our late loss despite our tactical disaster.

Is the way it should be always looking to inprove and get better players in. Is up to mcneil is raise his game. I do feel he can inprove more under moyes

I think Dwight would be a big improvement on Harrison and Lindstrom although some fans claim they have improved under Moyes! Don’t see it myself but I definitely think we have missed McNeils input.

 

[DOMNOLAN]

Play him in the LWB position and get Mykolenko out the team?

He's a nice little asset to be honest mate, he can play a role and compete for a place, if he becomes a squad player he's on a manageable wage and his book price is getting very friendly - so he's an on and off the field asset.

I think McNeil is 1 of our most talented players and we have missed him, despite the good run of form. I actually think if hes fit, wed hsve had a couple of those draws turned to wins, and for what it's worth, i think Moyes is going to love him and what he brings.

Pipe is back

 

[Verbal Kint]

He's had two very long absences now back to back seasons and nobody heard a thing about it.

 

[salmon fingers]

I can think of other areas of the field that need improving before McNeils and unfortunately his time with Everton has been tied to a not so popular manager. I think Moyes will love him and get the most out of him.

Him and N'Diaye coming back at the same time is very good news. Both of them create so many more chances than our other midfield players.
