NUFC Transfer Rumours

I've also severely under estimated how much people dislike Miggy.

 

I mean, the guy frustrates the hell out of me, but not to the extent where I will be happy with ANYONE to replace him, regardless of cost, fit, price or whether they are actually any good.

No one said ANYONE that’s an argument you’ve made up in your own head  what are you doing?

You are showing yourself up. Just whinging and bitching on, without really having any understanding of how a football club actually works.

 

JUST SIGN PLAYERS MAN.

Decent sometimes, frustrating others. Like I say, it's a team game. I was taught that at about 5.

He’s a right winger that can’t score, can’t cross & can’t assist. so the RW needs strengthening and no amount of players back from injury will strengthen that position.

Good for you. How do you judge Almiron’s performances?

Watch his performance against arsenal at home last season 😀 

 

He may not be the ideal player, but he has shown moments of brilliance and has contributed to the team's success. While he can be frustrating at times, it would be an exaggeration to say that his presence is detrimental to the team's performance. Over the past two seasons, the team has scored more goals with him in the lineup. While an upgrade would be desirable, it is not as dire a situation as some may portray.

Making you look silly. Use as many smileys as you like. You've yet to give me a name of a Miggy replacement.

[simonsays]

Our squad may be much the same as the start of last season, but...

 

 - we dont have the additional pressures of European football this season

- I'm still convinced we will bring in 1 or two players who will improve both first teams and squad before the end of the window

Again, what the fuck are you talking about?  I’m fully aware we need to sell players, I’m making the argument just because players aren’t injured it doesn’t necessarily strengthen the position we need strengthened. The club identified 2 positions and that’s the two positions I want filled I don’t think that’s massively unreasonable.

Tend to agree, although I do understand why people would be frustrated to see the same options at RW yet again when it's the clearest position for a really significant upgrade. 

 

People do underrate what Miggy offers and always have.

 

TBF I think Murphy will start anyway if we don't make a signing.

He got 11 goals two season ago. So you are factually wrong.

Douglas saying expect us to be very busy, but only going to make one signing. Expect a few outgoings then.

Yeah you’d hope Guehi comes in, a few go out last minute with a RW coming in last minute. That’s my guess anyway.

23 goals in 157 games for a forward player

Can someone help him out? He’s massively got the wrong end of the stick.

 

btw maybe wrong but I’m sure you were one of the ones desperate for minteh to go coz we’ll replace with better - just checked. Not wrong.

Still expect this too. Guehi will (almost) definitely happen IMO.

Fully agree. Almiron would be an excellent no.2 for the RW position. He was instrumental in our 2 best results of last season. Opens the scoring against PSG (THE moment of the season) and seals the game at the SOS with the press and excellent weighted pass to Isak for the second of the game.

"Can't score". Your words, not mine.

 

Not the "doesn't score enough", which is what your brain is telling you that you said. Next.

The lack of activity this transfer window has sent this place a bit RTG

You are wrong. I wasn't desperate for Minteh to be sold. It would have been nice to have kept him but recognised the situation we were in.

 

Once again, I was on the none-cryarsing end of that discussion.

 

Also, saying "can someone help him out" is showing a massive lack of self awareness. You think you are in the majority? 

 

I don't want to speak on behalf of anyone, but I suspect that most are sick of needless negativity, something which you are doing. I don't know if you do this all the time or not, I've never paid enough attention to your posts to know that.

You are behaving like a child. Nothing I’ve said is massively negative or out of order. Many people think we need a new RW, many people think we aren’t much better than last season. Many people think we need to sell our dead wood and many many times I’ve said it’s not the clubs fault.

 

why you started attacking me I’ve no idea

 

anyway move on. You are a decent poster. Apologies for calling you daftie just don’t think anything I said was particularly outrageous

Indeed, it is true that he lacks in scoring and assists, but it is also important to acknowledge his significant contributions to our press. He diligently covers Trippier at right back and demonstrates unwavering commitment and dedication to the team.

 

While there is certainly room for improvement, it is unfair to dismiss his efforts entirely. With him and Murphy occupying the right wing position, we can be confident in their abilities to perform effectively during the upcoming season, especially considering the absence of European competitions.
