joeyt Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I think I put him in the same category as Jonas Gutierrez Wasn't as good as I hoped but gave absolutely everything every time they played and scored some iconic goals. Wish him well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish him well I hope our fans reflect like they did with Jonas as they do with Miggy. Jonas was a hate figure up until his cancer diagnosis, then court case against the club. He’s now waved about as if he was a long serving club legend all along. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish him well Good shout - a Jonas is about right. Not the best, certainly not the worst and always gave his all. Tbh - I would have liked to have seen him under Rafa in that central or LW role for one more season at least - he had an explosiveness that first season. But got injured and then Rafa left.

Dokko Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I'm happy he's found his move. Shame it wasn't this time last year, I think we'd have been able to keep a psr pawn if so. Let's hope it opens a door for an in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shite overall I think shite ‘overall’ is a bit harsh, though I would agree with that for the last 12-18 months. We’ve definitely had more frustrating players over the years. He’s probably evaded quite a lot of criticism over the years because of that work rate and smile, but I wish him all the best at his new club and I hope to see him in the stands in the future Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Good for him, knows the place and area well and easier to get back to his homeland too. Good for both parties really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am more than happy enough if we can get £8-10m for him, better late than never. If nothing else we can appreciate someone who always gave everything for the shirt and ran his heart out.

Menace Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Happy we got decent money for him - happy we didn't have to dump him to Saudi Arabia. All in all everyone wins. Good luck Miggy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnonel Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Will really miss the man. What a guy. Wont miss the player, but wish the replacement has half his heart and energy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Rated him more than most, I don’t think he’ll go down as a legend or anything but he always worked hard and I feel he was unlucky with the management changes after he signed. Should’ve really gone earlier to a league where he could really impact the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Good luck Miggy. Great attitude. It's been a benchmark for this Howe side and I hope we can maintain it without him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiston Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Good luck to him, glad he's getting a long contract to end his career too. Always gave everything, great attitude and he was key for us in our best season in decades. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I'll shed a tear for Miggy when he leaves, though realistically it's a great deal for him, leaving a club he's loved at to return to another club he's loved at, but who wouldn't love him ? That infectious smile, the humble attitude, his dedication and attitude, and the icing in the cake - that wonderful spell when he was having his own goal of the season competition.

Good for the time they were signed, but we quickly outgrew them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
