How I see Mcneil most games

 

[Ragnar]

We need to start getting early goals because of Bournemouth get one in the second half we will crumble.

I mean it wasn't hard to beat getting slapped 3 and 4 nil.

Not talking about just this season

 

[Joey66]

Two efforts on goal, one should have scored straight at the keeper & how was only 1 minute added on ? Because the 3rd official is bored stiff with both teams ?

Got to see more from McNeil and Harrison. Dom also needs to learn to throw himself across the six yard box.

What's really worrying is that the 3 promoted teams appear to be better than last year's crop.

Two of them are losing and the other drawing at home to Fulham

LC has held their own against Spurs and Villa and aren't doing it by parking the bus.

Maybe Luton was better than Soton and Ipswich.

I watched Leicester-Spurs and they should've been 3-0 down in first half. Stayed in the game.

Even if Leicester pick up a few wins early they'll be getting a points deduction so interested how they cope with that setback.

I would say they maybe are marginally but I would expect at least 2 of them to go down with low points tally's

Tim looks some player btw. Love how he has that extra half yard of pace to get past players once he's won a 50/50. I think once he's fully fit him and Garner is going to be pretty decent, certainly in terms of mobility and pressing the opposition and then breaking towards the box.

5 halves played. No goals scored. What’s the record to start a season?

 

[Chrismac]

If we give the ball to Pickford we might as well put it into the corner.. he gives away possession 80% of the time, either by punting it straight into touch, or trying to chip it into midfield and he overhits it.
Always thought he had good feet but the more I watch the less convinced I am.

 

[Bilko]

Using our midfield is a rare event. Lot better
