Imagine the pain we will all feel if we have to sell Bruno because Miggy doesn’t want to leave

 

It'd be pretty fucked wouldn't it ? :lol:

 

Miggy would get all sorts of shit for wanting to stay at a club he clearly likes...but we'd be sad a player left because they chose to leave? :lol:

 

Luckily Bruno wasn't want to leave either mind, it seems.

PIF just need to throw more money at him - money talks

 

It didn't work in January by all accounts.

 

Just have to keep him as a squad player for the final two years of his contract if he refuses to go to Saudi because I can't see any other club coming in for him.

Got to start being hard and practically forcing players out. Got to be told that they don't feature in the plans and their game time will be limited. If Miggy did stay, then Murphy needs to be moved on as we need the upgrade in this position massively

Agree, we definitely need to show a more ruthless streak if we want to keep progressing. Newcastle is a great place for those who know they aren't quite top level material. Higher salaries, the kudos of being part of a big club. There's a reason we've found it hard to shift the likes of Fraser, Hayden, Ritchie, Gayle etc. We couldn't even move Cieron Clark out on loan, he was happy just to stay here picking up his wages.

Eddie will keep Murphy over Miggy given a choice. I would think.

Miggy isn’t the type of player to say he wants to leave a club publicly, and players are minded on what to say now in anyway.

If an offer by a club that is appealing to him comes along in the summer, then he’ll go.

If he is offered a chance to go back to the MLS, I honestly think he’d jump at the chance.

Saying he wants to fight for his place is just having a good mindset ahead of knowing what options arise.

Would be a bit of a downgrade in fees for us if he went to MLS instead of the Saudi League. I wonder where we would spend that £250k?

Players have a choice on where they go, I honestly don’t think a lifestyle out there would appeal to him. It’s why he never went in January, and likely won’t go there in the summer.

Yep, from his POV I can understand why he would prefer to run down his contract or move to MLS for a piddling fee. From my POV as a fan I would rather get £20m from a Saudi club which we can spend on a much needed RW who can win games.

Hope we cash in. Nice fella but he's an absolute load of nowt in about 80-90% games that he plays in. The purple patches aren't frequent enough, sadly.

 

Will remember his performance at the mackems for a while, he was absolutely class. And of course the first CL goal of the new era. Played his part but hope that was his swansong today.
