Joelinton7 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Just want to mention the chest and volley pass he did for Trippier yesterday. Magical. Thought it was Bruno at first but commentator said Almiron. Think my fave of his rakers is vs Villa last season. A sweeping move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) 3 hours ago, Conjo said: Simply not true. He scored throughout the season and think he was our top scorer in pre-season. He scored regularly in the MLS before he came here with quite a few shots similar to the one yesterday and showed good signs under Rafa. It's really only the Bruce era. 9 goals and 1 assist in 9 sequential games. 3 goals and 1 assist in the 25 games total before and after that 9 game run. Including 2 in 18 to end the season. ‘He scored throughout the season’. Just factually incorrect. He scored 75% of his goals in about 26% of his games. This isn’t to shit on him. He was MOTM for me against Brighton when he didn’t score. He does a lot of good work. Particularly off the ball. But this idea that he’s a regular goal threat if not for mismanagement is untrue.

Weezertron Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I was having a pint with a Man Utd fan here in Toronto and he says we have the best player in the Prem. Surprisingly I had about 5 players I rolled off my tongue that I thought it could be. Bruno, trippier, Botman etc. which kind of reflects how much the team has improved, obvs with some bias. He said no to all. And then said it was Miggy. I can’t agree but it was nice to hear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough. I could have sworn he scored towards the end of the season as well. He did score regularly all season up until his injury at least (or, regular for a winger who isn't prime Salah) and luckily seems to be continuing the trend into this season. Either way, main point of my post was just to say this Almiron is more true to himself and why Rafa splashed the money on him than the shell we saw play for Bruce, like so many others.

He’s a good player with incredible workrate and under Howe a goal threat too, but come on. He’s not even our best winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Miggy’s attitude is world class and his overall game is extremely valuable to us, especially when playing across multiple competitions. The weaknesses to his game are attacking-based and if teams set up against him properly then they can hound him away from being a threat due to his crossing. However, he’s routinely scoring now and teams don’t seem to have been able to stop him cutting in. If they force him down the line then he’s really only able to cut it back to Trippier but while he manages to cut in he will score a lot of goals. I just love him, when you see him pop up near Pope’s box and nab a crucial ball away and then power forwards it’s a joy to watch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 He's going at pretty much 1 in 3 playing with Trippier & Bruno. Even if a fair few came in one batch he's been invaluable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Even if he hadn't scored yesterday, he was doing some great stuff yesterday. A few times he popped up centrally and shimmied through a couple of tackles I thought it was Bruno at first.

That goal was pure desire - and one of the worst goals another team has conceded against us - the defending was utterly pathetic. It was simply desire vs no desire. You could see on Almiron's face how much that goal meant to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
