Graeme Bailey so take with a huge pinch of salt

But he’s linking us with Dan Neil from The Mackems

If this happens then it would allow Torp to push into the 10 and Neil would sit next to Grimes.

Would be a solid signing in CM, so not adverse to it.

Why is everyone obsessed with "who's he playing instead of?" Like strong squads that have the ability to rotate aren't a thing? You just want 11 obvious starters and 9 shite bags on the bench?
We have limited resources and you shouldn’t spend them on positions where we already have excellent starters and experienced backups.

Solid squad player, but not had a look in since Sunderland got promoted.
If Sunderland dont consider him good enough for the Premier league, why would we want him here?

If we are happy to stay in the Championship then yes I'd want him.

He's just a shit Josh Eccles etc etc, I haven't been told anything yet. Should get the scoop after their derby tomorrow.

Nah. At that point £15m would seem pretty ‘normal’, but right now it’d be a humongous gamble.

Really it’s at the level we’re at to buy better than what we’ve got unless we get lucky with a foreign signing. Top Championship players cost 8 figures these days. I think the division is a bit of a red herring. We should be looking at the best we can attract and if that’s better than what we’ve got moving on it. It’s Kings job to worry about finances and if he thinks we can afford Hughes and Lampard thinks he’s better than what we’ve got I’m all for it. We spent £4m a piece on backup this season after all.

He’s young and will improve

Blunderland are getting open to selling Patterson, Neil, Cirkin and Rigg.

Neil and Cirkin , move Bidwell on and loan out Brau then we will have DaSilva and Cirkin competing for that LB role with Neil adding strength in the midfield. Both are really good players at this level, then a winger to cover both sides.

I agree.

I’ve always thought Torp would make a good 10. I was surprised we didn’t try him there when Rudoni was injured, perhaps with Eccles alongside Grimes. Neil would be a better fit there than Eccles.

At least, as things stand, Torp does have licence to get forward.

I do think Neil would be a good buy.

So will Kai Andrews 🤷‍♂️

My point is, if we do go up, we need players that are already capable of making their mark in the Premier league, not young players that may improve.
I'd imagine that's why Sunderland bough in Granit Xhaka (for £13m plus add ons) and haven't played Dan Neil this season, if they are willing to let him go, what does that tell you?

Having said that I'd definitely take him on loan till the end of this season.

Seen some fan comment on YouTube saying say we shouldn’t sign him because he’s similar to kasey palmer, he’d be a class signing. Whoever says otherwise is an idiot

The comment was made on the YouTube interview of Lampard and rudoni have a look lol, was absolutely hilarious comparing Neil to that useless twat that is palmer

Yeah he’s like a polar opposite. High work rate kind of player that can actually manage a full 90 minute game 🤣

Wouldn’t say he has the flair of KP, but I don’t think that’s what we need. He’d actually have been ideal to bring on today once we went 1-0 up.

I refuse to watch a clueless YouTuber!

It wasn’t a YouTuber mate, it was someone commenting on the video, was like we should steer clear of signing players like Dan Neil as he’s similar to palmer LOL
