Guest firetotheworks Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 People on here have been dying for this to tell everybody that they told them so. that's what gets me like. Proudly boasting about 'calling it' back when he was 20 and just arrived in the country Barring a miracle he's finished here like, he's lost his place to Murphy and with no more cups he'll be lucky to make more than half a dozen appearances before the season is up. I love you Hans, but this is one thing we think the complete opposite on like. I thought he was shit last season and I find the almost cult status that he has baffling, but I'd much rather be wrong about him and thought he'd piss this league along with Perez.

KaKa Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Man, this guy Just get the feeling it will always be something with him. If he isn't getting sent off, he's getting cut by someone's studs, or he's getting concussed, or he's taking penalties he shouldn't be and missing, or he's slipping over and missing sitters at the worst time etc etc etc. Don't think it will work out for him man. Rafa will not put up with this goofy stuff. The kid is a goofball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I find it difficult to be angry with him. He's a work in progress and is, at the moment, without a lot of the things you need to be effective in English football. He might get up to speed eventually but because that mong Carr signed him as our main striker the expectation was and is way above his level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 The guy is just unreliable. The red card early last season put us in a rough position upfront, and messed him up as far as having him play as much as possible early on and settle in. He then gets another red at the end of last season that puts him in a similar position to start this season, and he ultimately misses his chance to really stake a claim and compete with Gayle, and maybe even get a chance to force Rafa to try and feature them both. Just idiotic behaviour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen precious little worth persevering with since we signed him tbh. Since Benitez has signed I agree with what yous are saying for the most part, and he's never going to lead the line here even if he turns out to be good - Benitez started Cisse who was in vile form last season ahead of him because of his movement. He's getting to the age now where it cannot really be used as an excuse anymore and we cannot really afford to keep giving him chances. I just disagree that he's been that bad I think there's a decent Premiership forward in there even with his god awful finishing. It's not even that though, the incessant "carthorse" and "you're not allowed to say Mitro cannot finish" posts do my head in The same happened with Cisse and it's painful to read.

I think that's fair, even though I don't like his finishing I've still been reluctant to get shot of him because he's young and might develop. People went way over the top with Cisse as well. He would miss chances, but his movement was great and there was nobody else who could sniff out the space like he did when he was here. That said, I don't think Mitro is ever going to be a top striker. Murphy is less demonstrative but he does the right stuff better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Not seen anything from the game but it's hard to turn it on straight away when you're getting 90 mins every three weeks. Definitely seems like the type of player who needs a run of games to get going. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Seen more from Murphy in the past three games than we've seen from Mitro over the course of this season to know that Murphy should be second in line to Gayle from this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I think there's a decent Premiership forward in there even with his god awful finishing. http://gifrific.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Blackadder-Confused-Look.gif He scored 9 in 34 last season despite missing about 2 open goals a game. He never looked out if his depth at any point either, actually looked pretty comfortable. For reference England international Bobby Zamora spent over a decade in the Premiership.

Optimistic Nut Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 For comparison Dwight Gayle was at Dagenham & Redbridge/Peterborough at the same age, Daryl Murphy was at Waterford United, Charlie Austin was at Swindon, etc. It's one thing saying he shouldn't be in the team, playing poorly, etc. it's another writing him off full stop. There's clearly something there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
