Miguel Almirón (now playing for Atlanta United)


Recommended Posts

Ashley's blueprint of finishing 17th going out of the cups nice and early and selling players for profit is seriously under threat with Bruce in charge.

We're definitely not playing him in the correct position, but he really needs to sort his decision making out. It's fucking shite too often. He'll create himself some space with good feet & bursts of pace and then do absolutely nothing when presented the opportunity and followed by giving it away.

 

Really need to see more from him imo. I'd argue Muto uses the ball better in terms of finding space, playing the pass that's on and moving forward.

Agree with the first part there is only so much you can blame a manager for but he is not helping himself as I have said before. Can't agree on the 2nd point as there is nothing I have seen in Muto since he signed to say he is a premier league striker.

He looked really exciting last season with Rondon and Perez and a manager who believed in him and knew where to play him - feel sorry for the lad.

 

:thup: and he'll be the whipping boy for all our struggles this season. Because our fans are thick fucking morons.

He was bought by a manager who was trying to build a side and knew where to play him. If that manager was still here he’d have had a pre season with him and he’d no doubt be playing in that position with players who also knew their roles.

 

Unfortunately, his pre season consisted of around 2 weeks with pie face, players who don’t fit with his strengths and as a result he’s been pushed out wide right and looks completely lost.

 

We’re completely ruining him. He clearly needs coaching and direction and it’s equally clear he’s not getting it.

I like Almiron and think there's a good player short on confidence and unhappy with the system there but we've had plenty of good players be evidently good under terrible managers, so I think at the end of the season we'll still have a decent idea of his quality despite Bruce.

 

Cabaye, Ba, Remy, Ben Arfa, Colo (at times), Debuchy, perhaps to a lesser extent Gini and Sissoko and a few others were all able to clearly show their quality.

 

Then we've had the 'Under the right manager/in the correct system' players like Anita, Cabella, Marveux, Santon, Shelvey possibly Mitrovic which sometimes rings true but sometimes just feels like a way of saying they have nice qualities but ultimately their overall game just isn't quite good enough.

 

Think for Almiron, ASM and Joelinton we'll still be able to judge over time and if they've got the quality we hope they do they'll show it despite the 'system' they're unfortunately stuck in.

Nope. (The bold bit). Shit regardless.

He must regret trying that audacious chip when clean through which hit the post just minutes into his debut as the no goals and no assists stat always gets used against him (especially from the League One numpties!)!

 

He completely elevated our attack last season and looked a player under Rafa. Unsurprisingly, he looks lost under this buffoon like many others.

he did recover though. had some decent games. changed our attack.

he's just not a right winger.

also the lack of intelligent movement in front of him by his teamates makes him look shit. of course he's gonna hang on to the ball too long if nee fucker is showing for him.
