| Dan Neil - does he improve us? 18:03 - Mar 7 with 1630 views | Dubtractor | I'm not convinced to be honest! Was superb against a Swansea team who played pretty open, really poor as a sub against Hull, and by some margin our weakest player today. The amount of times he gave up possession which led to them breaking was a big problem. I'd start with Taylor on Tuesday. |  |

| Dan Neil - does he improve us? on 18:11 - Mar 7 with 1538 views | Nutkins_Return | We've seen good and bad. Really talented player. If you get the Swansea version with a run of games then he's great. He can also play the Matusiwa role better than the other two. It's a good signing. Harsh. To judge him too much given how undercooked he was coming into it. I think he will grow into it and gives us the depth we needed. |  |

| Dan Neil - does he improve us? on 18:14 - Mar 7 with 1513 views | Steve_M | He improves us by giving us a much better option in the squad despite being very mixed on the pitch. A better Lewis Travis really. Was disappointing in giving the ball away loads first half today. |  |

| Dan Neil - does he improve us? on 18:35 - Mar 7 with 1373 views | southnorfolkblue | Was poor today an£ when he came off the bench on Tuesday but has played really well apart from that. He’s been a good signing. Irrespective of his performance today, I would have started Taylor on Tuesday anyway. |  |

I’d have started Tuesday with Taylor too. But Neil is a terrific player. His performances have been patchy, but given he’s at a new club in a new area and hasn’t played competitively all season, I am not surprised. I think he will be an asset in the run in. [Post edited 7 Mar 18:57]

| Dan Neil - does he improve us? on 18:50 - Mar 7 with 1236 views | Dubtractor | Just to clarify the OP, I'm not suggesting that Neil is poor, just questioning if he makes a real improvement on what we had. I'm certain he adds decent depth to the squad, but I guess I was hoping to see a clear step up in the starting 11 quality. Hopefully a bit more sharpness will see that over the run in. |  |

Cajuste has fallen down the pecking order. Considering how good he was last season and the money we committed to him, I wonder what has gone wrong. |  | |  |

I'm not sure he's ever really more than 80-90% fit. Some of his spells in games are utter class but it never seems to last long, if he got fully sorted and fully fit I'm sure he'd be a standout in our midfield. |  |

We are just too open with Cajuste, he really doesn’t do the hard yards, closing, tackling required in the championship. Taylor is good but also a bit of a liability defensively eg Wrexham. Neil is a good balance of the two, though today in hindsight I think Taylor was the shout. Maybe after the second half we may see more of Nunez there as we looked good. |  |

I'm not sure he's a really talented player. He seems like a neat and tidy decent championship player who just keeps things ticking over without the ability to break in to the box as a goal threat or play a killer pass. There's a place for him in the team but he's not a significant upgrade on what we already have, just a slightly different style of player. |  | |  |
| Dan Neil - does he improve us? on 20:57 - Mar 7 with 781 views | RetroBlue | If he was played regularly to get up to speed ( hes not played much football this season so is rusty), but Mckenna does what he does and rotates .... |  |

| Dan Neil - does he improve us? on 22:14 - Mar 7 with 592 views | itfcsuth | Too early to judge, played such little football this season he’s got no flow to his game yet. Think on current basis, Jack Taylor looks the better option, he’s had a really strong season, and he’s at full flow for the season. |  | |  |
