Him and £5m for Cairney.

 

A 23 year old premiership forward and 5m for a 27 year old championship midfielder? In what world does that make sense? I mean Cairney has been at fulham 3 years now and they have failed to get promotion, Mitro has been there half a week and there is a chance he will promote them. Other factors are involved of course.

 

It will be interesting to see what kind of impact he has in the play-offs.

Yeah we absolutely shouldn't be paying money in that kind of deal. Cairney is an unproven PL product and is a good few years older. There is a premium placed on strikers for obvious reasons, Mitro is a striker in form right now, he's also scored goals at PL level, so can make the step up if given the  chance to play. His absence from our team has been the one thing I find difficult to accept from Rafa, especially when we've had Gayle and Joselu being preferred to him. His time at NUFC is over as long as Rafa is here, so we need to cash in, in the summer, 20 million should be the starting point for negotiations and preferably I would like to see him move abroad, because he's going to come back and bite us on the arse I feel.

Very well put.

I don't think so personally. I feel that both Mitro and Gayle work best playing off another striker, and not many clubs in the Premier do that nowadays. Maybe he could be more effective in a team which pressed high up, but until we see him impressing regularly in the Premier we won't really know.

Isn't it always the case that he'll be dreadful, except against us.

Not if you look at it dispassionately, like say Rafa would do.

Which was ?

 

20 iirc.

 

He's getting there like.

 

Bit of both :thup:

 

"Hopefully, he’ll score 20 or 25 goals.

 

“We’ll be happy with that. He’ll have more value. He will come here and say: ‘I’m a new player, you have to trust me because I’ve scored 25 goals.’ Fine, no problem.”
