If that was a shop window, it was boarded up

Re: Dwight McNeil
I agree, it was very poor, but it beats not playing at all.
I think Dyche will value the half a dozen seasons he's had him under him, more than one game under a different manager.

Re: Dwight McNeil
The shop window argument doesn't make sense. There is no market in today's game for a player who doesn't look anything like an athlete, runs in quicksand and who can only use one foot. We're not close to a transfer window, we're not desperately in need of money and we have better options already at the club.
It was just a really, really poor decision from a manager who looks like he belongs in another era, both tactically and inter personally. His motives for it are open to debate but it was so bizarre it'll go down as one of those 'do you remember when' pub conversations for the next few years.

Re: Dwight McNeil
The only rational explanation for this is that he’s trying to set a bar in training and wants more in training from other players.
But even in that context it was the wrong thing to do.
