Good points and I thinks that’s something else people are missing when trying to write him off. His game is visibly changing. If Howe can get it to click with him he’ll be unstoppable. 
 

I think with a lot of winnable games against teams that are likely to sit back he’ll likely see more game time. 

I don’t write him off. He’s been unfortunate with injuries this season and he needs a run of games to show what he can do. If he doesn’t take the opportunity he needs a clip round the ear because he should be a Titan. I still suspect he’s going to end up as the new Ketsbaia though.

Top player, I'll always back him.

 

Before pre season nobody would have given a toss if Miggy was sold, now he's the bees knees, things change opinions change, Maxi will never become a bad player over night. In fairness especially on this forum, (because he's still loved on Twitter,) he's like the go to player to put down here, theres far worse players get a free ride, like I've said before over expectations, because so many know he's class, they crave superstar performance out of him everytime he plays, nobody is giving us constant 9 out of 10s but a good portion are giving strong 8s regular, I say he needs to be tried on the right still, pair up with a reliable player like Trippier, and Miggy is a left footer anyway, let's see how Miggy would fair on the left, it's probably the tougher position to play.

Regardless of the game or situation we're in - I would never ever put Murphy on before ASM.

Agree 100%.

I really have problems seeing what Murphy brings to the team. So light weight, bad decision making and lose the ball way to easy.

If they have had a bust up he won’t make the bench tonight.

That may have been why they have fallen out mate , like I say it could be shite but the kid text me out of the blue

I get the distinct sense that he’s not trusted defensively, and currently team defence is so crucial to what we’re doing that he won’t get more minutes without improving. It’s a difficult one, he’s so talented and productive at times, really hope it can be worked out.

It’s not a sense, Murphy coming on instead of him against arsenal pretty much confirmed it.

Semantics really, but yes this contributed to that sense. With that said, Murphy is the RW back up and Maxi the current LW backup, so Maxi wasn’t coming on for Miggy.

I think Isak takes that LW forward position in the next few weeks. ASM will possibly be used against a low block at home and as in impact sub away but I think that’s his role now. The way we play, organised and pressing from the front I just don’t see him starting regularly moving forwards. 
 

A more conventional left back who has pace to cover fast wingers and Joelinton covering left midfield might change things slightly in terms of him starting more but I think he’s gone in the summer.

If they have fallen out, you would assume he would be available for transfer now.

I don’t necessarily think or know if they’ve fallen out, I just think how the team is evolving might not include him moving forwards. I still like him as a player.

Would be a real shame if his time here ended with some bad blood. He’s box office and our most exciting player. Just seems through his own fitness or style and constant injuries. He has never really got a run under Howe. 
 

Been doing great without him. So he’s not come back in or been trusted to start. 
 

Think we’ll be needing him or someone with some similar attributes for the second half of the season. Plenty of teams will frustrate the fuck out of us and we still look a bit toothless attacking from open play at times.
