    If you're going to play a big lump like Wood upfront, then we'll struggle to find anyone who can get the ball in to him better than McNeill can, certainly on the money we pay anyway. I'd much rather be with him, than without him.

    that a restricting reliance - Sinkov....Mcneil needs to get himself to a place where he can find the angle for a cross to Wood - training ground drill and repeat....Woods game or relies on it because he's got little else - but if McNeils prority is to target him...then that'll take up a lot of his play/thinking, constricting his game and ignoring other prospects - but is nothing new....that the Sean Zedung supressive apparatus.

    It can be described as restrictive Norder certainly, but we are mostly a one trick pony and McNeill/Wood is more or less the only trick we've got. I've seen McNeill coming off his wing more and more often recently, some fans think he'd be better employed CM, but I've yet to see anything come of it. Wide left, with McNeill and Taylor, we do pose a threat, we don't have many others, and until the finances allow it, I can't see it changing.
