People now praise Neto for running alot with zero end product That's what has become of this football club. Neto is easily one of the worst wingers we've had for attacking qualities, but he looks busy so he gets rated.

He does the dirty work that for some reason gets looked down on. Same with Gallagher when he was here. They both weren't far behind, if not ahead, of others in terms of end product, but work far harder. It should be praised, or at least the other passengers we've signed should get called out for jogging around like they're the second coming of Messi while not one of them can beat their man.

So we've paid £60m for a left footed Gallagher who plays on the wing? Also on tbe topic of beating his man, what does Neto do once (very rarely) he beats his man? Cross to no one or pass it back to a full back?

You can criticise that part of his game and still praise the positives. None of them choose their price tag, but the least they can do is work hard off the ball.
