Under Rafa we saw those kind of attributes exactly, the only difference being he started. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Yeah, like everyone I think he's pretty sure to be off in the summer. I really like him and want him to do well. He's got quality in him, but don't think he'll make the step up that I hoped he would and don't see a place under Howe, especially as we look to push on if we stay up. Think he'll be a decent player somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krabbe2 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Not that money is the biggest problem anymore, but if we manage to get 15-20 million for Almiron and get Raphinha for 50 million it is good business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Maximin Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) I don’t really think it’s right to say he’s been Bruce’d. He only started scoring and assisting under him and was very good at it around 2020. I really like him but he needs to be in the right position to have impact, which doesn’t seem to be out wide. His work rate is terrific and he’s quick, but not brilliant technically or reliable enough in front of goal imo.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 1 hour ago, Nine said: I still think he can have a big role to play coming off the bench especially when we are trying to protect a lead, his energy and carrying the ball is made for that role of relieving pressure and giving us time to get back into shape. But the other night Howe brought Murphy on so maybe it’s not the way Howe sees him, quite a niche role as well and if I was Miggy I might want to go elsewhere to start. Like you suggest, I wondered whether he'd be thrown on the other night to do just that and again like you say, Howe went for Murphy instead. It's one of the few things that makes me believe he'll be moved on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Can imagine he might fancy a move back to Mexico City, fair bit of money in the Liga MX too so wouldn’t hit his wages too. Play for his beloved cement company, Cruz Azul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, be a shame to see Miggy go. Good footballer, bad time to be at the football club. If we didn't have Saint-Max and more invested in Willock he'd be starting and doing good things.

Astroblack Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I still like him. I just think he's a bit unlucky in front of goal like he'll hit the post, just hit shots wide, I can remember a few goal line clearances. Was he the one that De Gea made that miraculous save in the 1-1 from? Things like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

christ Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 The next few months are massive for him. He hasn’t progressed in any regard since we signed him. If he can’t elbow his way into the team between now and the end of the season and we manage to stay up then get rid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consortium of one Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I just think his confidence and belief in himself are shattered. Even though he helped open things up for Ayoze and Rondon the goals never came. Then he got shifted to the right for ASM and the goals never came. Then as Bruce's no tactics approach flourished he was playing deeper and deeper and, of course, the goals never came. And not just goals, as we know, assists have been hard to come by as well. I really think the best thing for Miggy and his career is to ship him out in the summer. He needs a fresh start somewhere else, maybe some place in a second tier expected to push for promotion. I don't know what he is any more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t, it was that gobshite Lee Ryder when we signed Almiron saying he joins the other two South American’s in Perez and Rondon. Anyway they all look the same those Mexicans… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I never would have picked Miggy as the forgotten man once a new manager showed up. What's going on here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 He just doesn’t seem to have a clear role. I don’t know where you would play him. I like him and I want to see him do well, but I don’t know how he fits in. As a sub playing behind Wood maybe, would give that a try now and then.

ponsaelius Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Yeah he clearly just doesn't fit into this 4-3-3 in any way. Even off the bench tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
