Are right footed players ever accused of being one footed?

Always feels like left footed players stand out more for better or worse.
Some truth in it that they stand out, also if Mcneil could run or was generally better whenever the ball wasn't just dead at his feet it wouldn't be as big an issue.

I think you're right, don't recall it being a disaster, might be the right call.

McNeill is fine on the ball in space, but his one pacedness and lack of agility makes him too ineffective when under pressure or when he's pressing an opponent.

Still can't believe how bad this transfer window has been.

We’re in terrible shape.

That right hand side yet again is awful.

Can’t see moyes picking the young lad at left back so that’s going to be another square peg in the team for Leeds.

To get to this point with not one right back or right winger in the team is a massive failure.

Almost like it wasn't a great idea to overhaul the whole recruitment structure at the same time we were going to get rid of 10+ players

Need 2/3 in this week and even at that it’s late atm the back 4 for Leeds is Seamus at lb Jake at rb that’s not acceptable considering we all knew we needed a new right side

Nah, they also have this lad called Jack Harrison who can play RW - guaranteed to score against us too.
