Miguel Almirón (now playing for Atlanta United)


Recommended Posts

Was on the verge of giving up on him a few games ago, he was ineffectual and running into dead ends. He’s been incredible recently. Workrate is relentless, he’s direct, aggressive and has grown in confidence. I really think he will be the reason we stay up this season.

Despite all the negativity really happy that he's finding really good form (and you know in better areas to be able to do anything). I always hate how he was dismissed as a flop after he transformed our offensive game, albeit without finding net much, in that last 6 months for Rafa. He's actually really really good.

Someone said in the match thread he put in two MOTM performances in one game. I think that says it all. If everyone put the shift in that he does we'd be a helluva team.

 

thats the perfect way to put it.

Shame he wasn't allowed to take the free kick that got schar injured. The way he's playing I had a feeling he'd pop it in the top corner. His last effort clipped the crossbar last game.

He's the heartbeat of the team at the mo. Great energy and now got the confidence to start taking more shots etc.

Considering he’s had a lot of criticism for his end-product, 13 goals in not much more than a year, with a poor manager and team, normally out of his favourite position and at times not picked... isn’t bad at all. And his work rate is still the best thing about him.

he's never hidden.

never let his head drop or sulk when's he's fucked up or when he's been subbed.

he's put in full effort every time he's asked to play out of position.

never lost his smile and his enthusiasm.

he's fucking class.

That doesn’t look right, like. Premier League era potentially.

 

All time, it's legit https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/newcastle-united/topTorschuetzen/verein/762 41st (Gayle's 15th, Carroll 16th and Ritchie 24th too!) - according to this particular list anyway

 

Eh, are you's taking the piss? All time top goal scorers? Gayle in 15th, Shola in 3rd? Never heard of Jackie fucking Milburn?  :lol: You know, that dude one of the stands in our stadium is named after?

There’s no Hughie Gallagher or Jackie Milburn for a start. Shearer scored 206 not 198. Supermac scored way more than that as well just as examples.

Didn't realise he had such a brutal, impoverished upbringing. Perhaps goes some way to explain why he never sulks and is always so positive and happy. Gratefulness.

 

Edit: "Brutal" might have been a bit strong, he clearly had a loving family who worked their bollocks off, but humble beginnings in poverty indeed, which I suspect is rather commonplace where he's from.

You got some reading around that?
