IMO the Saudi interest is carefully orchestrated (it’s not a PIF club). But it looks like nobody bothered to put the feelers out to Miggy to understand if he would be willing to play ball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just his agent trying to squeeze a few extra riyal to play ball. IF the deal doesn't go through, then we can say it's been handled badly, but really I think we've made it pretty clear it's time for him to move on.

Kanj Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Maybe his lovely family doesn’t want to live there and he’s quite settled in England, with his good mates on the team? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) Further, what has a few years of good success at NUFC done to this forum? The charm of this club since the takeover is the unity on and off the pitch. It’s caring about the players who give it all every week. Now we have our own fans pushing people out the door who don’t want Ieave as far as we know? The proper way to handle this is to work with Miggy to find a proper solution. He’s not some 35 year old on a last pay check, he’s been one of our only fit wingers and he’s still relatively young with a young child and a wife. Ffs man. I’d be first to say we need to upgrade the right wing spot but I don’t like the idea that we’re pushing guys out the door to places THEY seemingly don’t want to be going to.

SUPERTOON Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I just can’t see us letting him go without a replacement, and I don’t think we have time to get one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree on the first point but on the second - we have no idea what is going on behind the scenes. We could have a replacement lined up and ready to go if/when a deal for Almiron is done. The Isak deal springs to mind - nothing for weeks then suddenly he's on a plane here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m basing it on us seemingly having no money to spend and the focus being on a midfielder. I just can’t see us getting a CM and a Miggy replacement in.

If we want to be seen as ambitious and not soft touches, then I would like to think so. Of course he has his contract and if he really doesn't want to go, then he can just say no, but that doesn't mean we won't be upgrading him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
