EvertonThree shots in loss
McNeil registered three shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 loss to Arsenal.
Analysis: McNeil led the Everton attacking effort with three shots (zero on goal) Saturday as they were outlasted in a 2-0 loss at Arsenal. The attacker also contributed one interception and two clearances to the defensive effort across 86 minutes of play. McNeil has attempted nine shots (three on goal) across his last three appearances (three starts), matching his total number of shot attempted across the preceding 15 appearances (eight starts) combined.
Four crosses in draw
McNeil generated one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Burnley.
Analysis: After starting the previous match on the right wing in place of Iliman Ndiaye, who is away at AFCON, McNeil made another start but operated on the left with Jack Grealish (illness) unavailable, freeing Tyler Dibbiling to play on the right. He attempted one shot, produced a season-high four tackles, created one chance and delivered four crosses, marking back-to-back matches with four crosses while taking one corner in each game.
Starts in Cup
McNeil got the start during Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash with Mansfield Town.
Analysis: McNeil has been on the bench for the first two Premier League matches, but got the start for the Carabao Cup match. He had a quiet day before coming off, and seems truly relegated to a depth role. McNeil was excellent before his injury last season, but poor form when he returned seems to have knocked him down the pecking order.
