nemtizz Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Second favourite goalscorer after Jo. Second best left-footed finesse ITW after the greatest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miggy will be miles behind on assists. Isak is now level with Remy and one behind Andy Carroll. https://www.11v11.com/teams/newcastle-united/tab/stats/option/scorers/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we include cups, he has scored 5 goals more for us than Atlanta who were the team he had scored the most goals for.

Took him ages to get one Then scored a few close together. One of them quite memorable, plus the Leverkusen goals, probably make his goals linger and inflate in the memory more. (His debut was Sept 2000 and first PL goal not til April 2002!) Edited October 1, 2023 by Superior Acuña Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Absolutely wonderful hit. When he’s confident he’s a real goal threat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 People rightfully criticise him for how poor his right foot is but he doesn’t get nearly enough credit for how good his left foot is. If he has time and space on his left and is in a shooting position he’ll score regularly. Still think other teams underestimate him when he cuts inside Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Edgar Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 His crossing with his left foot is pretty shocking, oddly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When his confidence is up he can do great things. But he doesn't have a cash money left foot like Larry Robert. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Was really impressed with him yesterday, aside from his brilliant goal, thought he carried the ball really well and was a constant threat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 The only player my Mam (in her 80s) recognises. She calls him smiley. If you asked her about Miggy Almiron, she will say she has never heard of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

pubteam Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I'm not sure he has ever hit a ball more cleanly. It was so unexpected it took me a second or so to react. Hopefully he is hitting his goalscoring patch again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Yeah this "lacks end product" is bollocks when referring to his early years at the club. He was playing under one manager who was pragmatic in his approach and another who was a fucking idiot. For much of the time he was defending his own box. Ever since Howes come in, his end product has improved markedly. That said, he's not a world beater but his insane workrate makes him perfect for our system. I see absolutely no reason why he won't reach double figures this year, he's already got 2 and its not even October. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
