Dan Neil- superb tonight


@As You Were you fucked the quote up so I'll reply here


Massive myth about him not being able to tackle. His passing is excellent as is his work rate..I think you're massively under rating him.

Btw he has 2 goals this season, that would average out at 8 this season..if he gets 8 from centre midfield this season I'll be happy with that that
I’ve been reading for 2 year on here what a great player he is. That good that he barely kicked a ball under Alex Neil and was dropped straight away and the club went on a fantastic run and got promoted without him in the team. He’s had two or 3 daft red cards. Do you honestly think if we had this top young English central midfielder in the squad that none of the big premier league clubs would have bid for him. People talk like he’s 18 he’s not. He’s a a decent player.

Have you actually watched him or just read about him?
 
Were we close to scoring?
I think there’s about 10 threads saying we weren’t and the reasons why.
If we scored I’m pretty sure they’d have stepped it up. Patto kept us in the game . Easily
We should have had a penalty. That's quite close.
Also 3 or 4 good chances we skyed.
And keeper made good saves from Clarke and Burstow.
I'd like to see what our XG was. Does anyone know where to find it.
 
I've read the entire match thread on the foxes talk forum and they are absolutely categorical that we are the hardest game they've had by some distance. They praised out work rate and fooball to the hilt. Thet observed we were the better side but somehow if not for Patto they could have scored 4 or 5. A weird game they said but they were mightily relieved when the whistle blew and could not believe how we kept going at them. They reckon everyone else they've played has been dead by 70 minutes. They also observed that we have an extremely skillfully but very young side which gives us both strengths and weaknesses.
Funny how they see that, you see that, I see that but plenty on here are absolutely blind to it.
 
Seen a big improvement in Dan Neil this year...hes more confident , hes wanting the ball and hes getting into some good positions......he reminds me of when we had Jordan Henderson who like Neil was very raw at times but matured season on season......I can see dan playing in the Premier at a good level

He’s one player who has definitely improved this season and hopefully will keep on getting better.
 
Did you not see his two shots that went 30 yards over the bar.
Yes I did, i also saw all of the other excellent things that he did. We used to say that ki had the keys in our central midfield, well now Neil has the keys. Agree he does need to work on his shooting though 😂

He’s not alone in that as we have a tendency from several players who either appear to be scared to have a shot or can’t get it on target. That along with our defending set pieces especially corners needs more work and immediately. Very frustrating to keep conceding soft goals and failing to convert chances. I think we had 13 shots last night so we are creating.
