I wonder if the rest of the team takes notes of how the end of their stay here will be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted Thursday at 14:54 Share Posted Thursday at 14:54 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

midds Posted Thursday at 17:17 Share Posted Thursday at 17:17 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidAK Posted Thursday at 17:52 Share Posted Thursday at 17:52 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.

Aiston Posted Thursday at 18:51 Share Posted Thursday at 18:51 Murphy robbed Almiron of an assist to be fair, from like half a yard out He should be on 7 really !!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How? 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted Thursday at 19:25 Share Posted Thursday at 19:25 He's a tryer I'll give him that and genuinely loved the club. so cannot say he was one of the worst players we've had mind.

Let's just pretend they were never in the picture and get whatever his real value is worth. If that's £8m we should take it happily and job well done.

We got what we paid for. £20m was at best an average fee for a Premier League player at the time. He doesn’t have an end product, but if he did he would have cost more, or certainly have been sold on for much more once he was proven in the Premier League.
