Dan Neil

[Rip Van Fish]

Think Ipswich was probably the wrong move anyways. Their manager chops and changes for fun. See it with Jack Clarke especially most weeks.

Yes mate but tbf they also have Philogene who plays in the same position as Clarke

 

[The Situation]

We have obviously significantly improved since promotion, but there's no point in rewriting history either.

Neil was a very good Championship level CM during his time in that division with us.

Both things can be true.

 

[chriswallace85]

Until enzo arrived he was our best player in the Championship. No need for people to go on like bell ends.

He so was not like.

Dan Neil was a great player for us and captained us back to the Prem. Don’t get the need to have constant digs …

Yeah proper weird behaviour from some of our pro footballer fans on here….

He so was not like.

All opinions, in mine he was. Happy to hear yours

 

[Banks]

One of the players we sold is currently second in the bundesliga and after a tricky start is now playing regularly.


Nothing back at all? He captained us to promotion. Is that not giving back?

Did he do it for free?

Plus hes not the reason we got promoted. People trying to rewtite history as if he was pivotal when he was one of the weak links

 

[Lionel Hutzz]

Massive shame. We have seen Neil have some great games in the Championship but his career seems to have stalled. We don't know the money situation but it appears that he should have signed a contract with us and he'd be in a much better position. I can see Hackney moving on and Dan Neil moving to Boro, which would be a good move for him. I'm not convinced there is much between Hackney and Neil. A few weeks ago some on here had written off Chris Rigg as not much more than a run of the mill CHampionship player. Rigg raises his game at every challenge and gets better and better. Had Neil got a chance in the Premier League he may well have worked hard and improved his game as Rigg has. It seems now his career will slide, although, as I say, Boro would be a really good move.

I mean it would be nice for a local lad to do well but he’s miles off Hackney imo. Rigg is 18 and Neil is 24 (I think) . Hope he has a good career but think this is an extension of the rose tinted glasses when he played for us

Bellingham, Meph, O'Nien, Isidor, Cirkin. Paddy Roberts divided opinion due to his numbers, but I'd have him well above Neil as well.

 

[Lionel Hutzz]

He so was not like.

I thought he was sometimes good in the champ but very inconsistent and just as often very poor. I’ve said it since the first champ season people on here struggle to differentiate wanting him to be good and the reality. Think he can have a solid mid table champ career and wish him all the best

 

[HettonSAFC]

Never his biggest fan but I think he could have learnt a lot from Xhaka. Never going to displace him though.

 

[pRICK]

Ipswich not savoring their Succulent Chinese Neil?!

 

[Nicky Winterwasp]

I still think he could carve out some kind of top flight career but it needs to happen in the next couple seasons.

good player but probably just lacking across a number of different attributes to play at the very highest level

 

[MONTYMCPHAIL]

I was never a fan. He only stood out cos he was in a squad with people like Dobson, Scowen, McGeouch n Power. He was awful at Wembley v Sheff Utd

Yeah proper weird behaviour from some of our pro footballer fans on here….

Hardly weird for people to say he wasn't very good.

 

[chriswallace85]

The haters / bell ends have moved onto Diarra now mate.

I was probably what you might call a Dan Neil detractor.

I actually thought he was alright, just not the wonderful player some made out, and I thought he struggled in big games.

As for Diarra though, I'm in the pro-Habib camp.

But it is weird for the same ones to constantly bang on about it…fuck me

 

[TB22]

Sure I posted on here a while back pre season that Dan would be ideal loan for Boro helping them with a promotion push . He knows all about promotion and how to tackle a difficult run in period to seasons end. Also would be linking up with Alan Browne.

 

[ClassicDom]

“Hahaha a local lad who lived his dream and captained the club is shit and that makes me so happy” is a f***ing weird take. People on here absolutely love to slag our players off. Bizarre behaviour.

One.

 

[bowers2]

Liverpool and west ham. I read it on here.

Mainly insecure brothheads who need to say their piece on here, even when they’ve got nothing to say.
Probably the kind of people who’s own kids find them pitiful.
