I dont post on Twitter but I do read itsometimes, generally when someone posts a link on here (especially the "Russia Invades" thread which actually has some decent info/insights).
There aint half a lot of over-opinionated people posting rhubarb on there. It amazes me that some folk treat it as a source akin to The Holy Bible.
I daresay McNeil didnt have the greatest of debuts but, from the BBC player rater, there were 4 players who did worse and 3 more who were only marginal higher rated (Mina, Gray and the mighty Pickford). Tarks was 6th from top in the list with a score of 5.07/10 cf McNeil's 4.71.
Highest 2 ratings were Patterson with 5.61 and Gordon 5.27.
Basically, it appears that the whole team didnt do very well and it's far too early for any sensible person to be already writing off McNeil as a duff signing.
