Miguel Almirón (now playing for Atlanta United)

[AyeDubbleYoo]

He’s been treated slightly harshly IMO, I guess it’s because we want him out.
 

Think he’s been generally a bit underrated in his time here, and also very unlucky with Bruce coming in. Glad he got that purple patch anyway. 

[Menace]

I say this as someone who has no ill feelings towards him.

 

He's woeful 

[The Butcher]

Underrated? 6 assists since he joined in Jan 2019

 

 

He's that purple spell away from being one of our worst ever signings imo.

That purple patch in years to come will be a fond memory, even to a point where people will hype it up. Rightly so too.

 

But last night my Christ, he was bad when he came on. It was like he was the only one left out the team meeting about the plan that was in place.

For a “winger” or even an attacking CM that’s completely inexcusable.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

I know he doesn’t score or assist much, that’s not up for debate

[Menace]

I mean those are pretty important things for a winger, doesn't Schar have the same amount of goals as him?

Christ, a late candidate for worst post of 2024 sneaks in.

It's true mind.

I wonder if the rest of the team takes notes of how the end of their stay here will be.

[Lotus]

Thought he looked good when he came on despite the state of the game by then. 
 

Tbh he’s looked like he can contribute lately so (with Murphy as a bench mark) not sure why he’s not had a chance.

That fucking goal v Burnley, was something else.

Absolute no brainier. Him and Dubarabka out the door in January bringing in £15M would be much needed. I reckon just those two out would be enough to get a RW in, just hope they do it ASAP in first week of January.

Why? actually think he has a point because aside from that purple pitch he's been an absolute disaster and let us down too many times, he was a laughing stock even within other players hence the Grealish drunk comments.

Same lot as last time? I'd take it now, 12 months on. 

[midds]

If (big if) that's the case and it's 8.5m then I think we'll snap their arms off. Pretty sure we accepted whatever was on offer for him earlier in the year but he turned the move down. Totally his perogative to do so but he's about as fringe as you can get and has no future here imo. He's just seeing out his contract whilst his value drops and drops. I think he'll run his contract out completely and go mls a month later

[nufc123]

Was it Charlotte in the summer also?

[LiquidAK]

Love Miggy to bits but it's time to move on. If we can get a decent fee for him and it helps unlock some cash for us to upgrade in January then we have to take it.

 

Will always love him for that PSG goal

 

Never gave less than 100% and will be rightly remembered more fondly with time than the spoiled toddler elements of our fanbase will have you believe. 

[wyn davies]

Thought he was heading elsewhere, whilst £8.5 seems ok, bit more cream on top from elsewhere would be better.

Worst is obvs too much when Alan Smith et al wore the colours but you take away his terrific engine / effort and bloody hell, outside of that 3 months….

 

6 assists though. How? 

[Aiston]

Murphy robbed Almiron of an assist to be fair, from like half a yard out

 

He should be on 7 really !!!

I think him being ‘Bruced’, as others have mentioned, is definitely harsh.  Games under Rafa - 10, goals - 0, assists - 0

 

The lad is a grafter and a likeable character and everyone enjoyed that purple patch, but for the vast majority of his time here he hasn’t been worth near the fee we paid (a club record one).  If he was a £2m punt instead of a £20m one things might be viewed differently.

 

He’s the Warren Barton of NUFC attackers - canny lad, worked his bollocks off, quality not there, not worth the fee we paid.
