Lewis Neilson

In the heart of Hearts' defence, L. Neilson is quietly crafting his reputation as a dependable modern centre-back. At just 22, he's shown an impressive knack for recovering possession, a testament to his keen awareness and ability to read the game. His style of play suggests a player comfortable on the ball, evidenced by his inclination to carry the ball forward, which is notably progressive for someone in his role. While his progressive passing could see some refinement, his defensive solidity in the penalty area is commendable, often positioning himself intelligently to thwart opposition threats. Although his 1v1 defending needs fine-tuning, Neilson's overall player stats highlight a promising talent with potential to flourish further. His contributions might not make headlines, but this scout report underscores a player who’s quietly effective and vital to his team's defensive setup.
