MagMal Posted January 25, 2024 Share Posted January 25, 2024 So peg leg is staying? He has been great for the last season and a half but I would expect him to be moved on in the summer if we are looking to improve as a team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats incorrect, he signed a new contract after 4 years of his 5 1/2 year deal so the remaining amortisation is then spread over the new contract, Miggys book value is about around £4.1m.

Great, let's give everyone new 10 year contracts as soon as they sign and spread out that FFP! Yeah, that isn't right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before and After, it’s never changed, it’s restricted to 5 years but there is nothing stopping a club renewing a contact every year.

While also meaning we don’t have any fit RWs. So we sell Miggy and spend £50m on Onana or MGW. That covers their cost for 6/12 months only. And we still don’t have. An actual Miggy replacement.

A squad with 3 wingers? That’s too light. And only 1 is a natural RW. And he’s not top 8 quality if we are being real. If we sell Miggy, we should replace him. Our problem is that we have 6 first team CMs (which is good) and only 2 are fit. 2 will miss the whole season. So we are desperate for another. But we have no PSR headroom. No valuable fringe players. So we will have to sell a valuable player to buy another valuable player.

No valuable fringe players. So we will have to sell a valuable player to buy another valuable player. 3 wingers for 2 places is preferable to 3 (maybe 4) CMs for 3 places. I think between Barnes, Murphy, and Willock it's also fair to say Willock carries the highest risk coming back (which is why I said maybe 4). If we don't sell Miggy and/or bring in another CM then I think it's likely we end up with Gordon or Miggy (or both) in the midfield at some point this season. None of this is ideal of course, but I can definitely see why we'd entertain the idea of selling our first choice and only fit RW to improve the midfield situation (and get younger).

lovejoy Posted January 25, 2024 Share Posted January 25, 2024 Is the plan to play mgw on the right? Or at least have the flexibility to do so? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 25, 2024 Share Posted January 25, 2024 Miggy out for MGW is a strong move even if it left us a bit short out wide. I'd get Minteh back if we could too, even at a small cost. We'd be overall stronger and younger and it would have brought forward a large amount of what would happen in the summer anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGW seems to tick the Howe versatility box as well of being able to play as an 8-10 and rw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
