Menace Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I like Mitro, but if we were able to sell him for profit, I would. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpie1892 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 He needs to play in a country where the pace and tempo is slower. Like Belgium, for example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rompe Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 How come he is our most effective player in form of assist/goal pr minute if he is that bad? What does that say about the rest of our players, should we get rid of all our attacking players then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winn Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I think he is a decent player even at his young age. He has lots of potential. He is good at holding up the ball and brilliant at bringing players into play. Hes good in the air and obviously has the passion, fight and desire. I really do think over the next couple of years he will add more goals to his game making him a valuable asset. Like many others I would like to see him and Gayle play together.

St1pe Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I really don't get people sometimes. Mitrovic is still young, he scored a reasonable amount of goals last season given his inexperience he is improving. More importanlty, for the first time in years we actually have real alternatives in play style so Rafa can rotate the strikers for the situation. I might be getting a bit ahead of myself here but if we get promoted I think both Mitrovic and Gayle will be at a stage under Rafa where they'll both be good enough for a Premier league level. Both need to improve but I haven't seen anything to suggest they won't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmymag Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 He's painfully slow which will always hinder him in the Premiership. Oh, and he's a crap finisher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 He's about one tenth the athlete Diego Costa is, unfortunately. Not his game to play like that. Aye, hopefully he can improve. But a big facet to Costa's game is being stronger and faster than most defenders ala Didier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Time will tell with the lad. I can't see him being ahead of Gayle ever for Rafa though. And I would be surprised if Gayle himself was our #1 next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 For the Mitro fanboys any sort of measured criticism, even ones mitigated his age and newness to the country, is "slating." It's the whole Ronaldo / Dummett syndrome all over again. Ron. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Hate to say it but I can't help but thinking his career here is dead in the water. He will probably see out the season but not the summer. It will be off to Italy or somewhere I reckon. Ultimately, I don't think he has the engine or the skill for the premiership and "age" just won't cut it for me. Shame because he is a great character.

mighty__mag Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Can't beleive we are wasting him in this division. Especially when he was thrown into a new side last season. He could have settled and used this league to build him up ready for the premiership. I still think he had much blame in his situation due to his 4 game ban and Gayle hit the ground running. Just seems a terrible waste. Rafa Rotates everyone else but hardly uses the strikers in a rotation. I dont think Rafa likes him much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I just think it's much harder to justify rotating out a striker who scores in most of his games. Especially when you only play one up top. I like Mitro, and would love to see him play in this league, but with 1 man up top, I don't think he'd see much time if I was gaffa' either. (But I'd just sack off Diame and play Mitro there instead. Or at least give it a try. ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
