Miguel Almirón (now playing for Atlanta United)


Recommended Posts

Shouldn't be for sale, even if we sign an upgrade at RW you aren't going to find a better stand-in or player to come off the bench. Would weaken a squad already very much lacking in depth. 

 

Feel like there is much more to come from him, too.

If it allowed us to sign Harrison, Ramos, Maddison, or a DM then we definitely should.

He plays in our weakest position, so we should only sell if it allows us to get someone  better in.

 

Feel sorry for him because he seems a great guy, but he's been played RW when he's not and never has been a winger. Hard to really tell how good or bad he is, but he hasn't produced in the position we've played him.

I love Miggy’s attitude, personality and effort on the pitch but I don’t think he’s going to transform into a high-assists / goals winger. He suits our high press and he has a good partnership with Bruno. Given that it’s Everton, we shouldn’t be letting him go for anything under £20m, given how appalling they are at business

The whole point of getting a new winger is to provide genuine depth to the squad, it would be silly to get rid of Almiron even if we replace with better, as we'd still be in the same situation as right now. If for example we get Harrison in and Miggy goes out, we're still left with Murphy as backup.

Almiron, Murphy & Fraser or Harrison, Murphy & Fraser?

 

Clear upgrade imo.

The problem being, should Harrison get injured, just like should Miggy get injured now, we'd still be left with Murphy and Fraser :lol:

 

Not saying Harrison isn't a better player, as he is, more that were trying to build a good squad, with competitiveness for places.

Yes but we would have a much better starting XI.

It’s all guesswork about fees, but my personal view is you should upgrade your worst players first. Murphy, then Fraser, then Almiron.

If it's a choice between getting the extra money to stay within FFP and signing a Miggy upgrade, and keeping Miggy at the expense of someone better, surely it's option 1 all day long?

If selling Almiron means we can sign Maddison and Pedro, then yeah. If selling him means we only buy Maddison then no. Our squad is too small/shit for a one in one out policy.
