Showed promise the lad

Just about. Did nothing you wouldn’t expect an U-21 player to do.

Did good I thought.

We just desperately need over lapping full backs to drag markers away from the likes of him and Grealish.

Any player under 21, or promising players under 21?

He is still a bit frustrating to watch at times, but he’s definitely one who needs players on the same wavelength around him to do his best.

However, his best game for us so far and arguably was pretty unlucky not to have had an assist and won a penalty.

Really pleased for him. Did well in dire circumstances. Need a proper RB behind him overlapping as he likes to cut inside like Grealish does.

Some great touches and passes and should have won the penalty.

Good to hear. He’ll need a few games to get going

Keeps his place against Forest.

Confidence builder today, but I don't want another Grealish, fannying about wide. I want him attacking defenders

Leave him in now Davy

With how McNeil is playing, presuming Grealish is back it should be Dibling who stays in.

McNeil sadly just continues to look pretty far off it for whatever reason.

Yet played the 90 whilst Alcaraz and Dibling were subbed. Be surprised if Moyes doesn't go for the Dwight "The Turtle" McNeil.

Languid... Chrissy Waddle, sans mullet.

Pleased with Dibbo's showing today. Fair play.

Think he could do with having everyone behind him. I’m sure we all want him to be a success. It’s a big move for a young lad and as has been documented he does seem like a shy lad. Nevertheless I believe he is super talented and with more game time we will see the best of him

Tough time for us at the moment with all of our main men out. Dibling and Tim are the positives in these tough times, game time for them can only be a good thing right now

Strikes me as the type who’s gonna respond better to cheers and encouragement rather than groans in the stands when something doesn’t go right
