Thiago Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I think he's a touch checked out mentally. He hasn't been embraced into the starting XI like many others with even Jacob Murphy starting over him. It's sad but in reality we've played a role in messing his career up due to Bruce. Players coming from MLS are always judged more severely and are seen as some yard stick for the league in its entirety which means the need for a smooth transition is huge.

The Butcher Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Doesn't score. Doesn't assist. Doesn't create chances. Can't dribble. Weak as piss. Works hard and can run a wee bit fast. He's shite. Got nowt to do with Bruce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Plays football like he’s in the schoolyard. Unfortunately not good enough for this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate you have a strong opinion on him, but as someone that watched every game he played in MLS, it could have worked for him here, as we saw in those six months under Rafa.

Newcastle Fan Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 First half and both teams going at it like its a cup final and then you've got this little waste of space, diving around and losing balls and hardly doing anything usefull in the final third.

Jordan Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I’ve defended him in the past but he just offers nothing at all. How do you get to this level as a professional and not be able to use your weaker foot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiago Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 For all the shit he gets he still created our best chance of the night. If we're adamant about having inverted wingers he can't be one of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Yep. Is not a winger and never has been, should play as a 10 or not at all. Showing up our lack of strength in depth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 He's quick enough to literally just knock it past most full backs and out pace them, but he never does ... it's so bloody weird. Waited till he was just about to be subbed before finally running at a defender, and he showed how effective he could have been at that all game. At this point I'm totally sick of him tbh. Can't wait for the day our position in the prem is confirmed for next year, and we can start moving some of these folks on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiago Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Honestly I'd not be against playing him over Willock at times. I hate Willock's attitude. He's either Yaya Toure or a ghost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consettmag Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Don’t get me wrong, I’ve always wanted Miggy to do well purely on enthusiasm. However. He can only go past players with pace, if a defender squares him up he can only go backwards. He can’t cross a ball with accuracy. He’s not a natural finisher. Got a great engine and will run and press for 90 minutes, but a premier league footballer he isn’t. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyboy Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 The only time in the game that he went for the line and didn't check back he nearly had an assist. He has tremendous pace but he is frightened of losing the ball so just checks back to play it square or backwards, the safe ball. We are so weak down the right flank in attack and defence Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugoinufc Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Always wanted him to shine but fact is, he is not PL material. He should move on in the summer....and he will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) He is what he is. And that’s not a premier league footballer. if he would push and run more often at defenders he would be useful. The one time he did it he destroyed the defender.
