Aiden McGeady

Where are people getting this Sunderland thing from?

Mirallas had much better stats than fatty McGeady this season.: eleven goals in thirty-six appearances, several of which were 60 minutes and then off, or twenty minutes at the end coming off the bench. Even Lennon did better, with two goals in fourteen appearances. Lennon, by the way, is pacy.

I sense however that we aren't going to agree. I wish McGeady the very best of luck in his career, but I pray to God that someone takes him away asap.

I more or less agree with you, but re: the assists, Mirallas has 2, Barkley has 2, Lennon has 2 - yes, Mirallas scores goals, but McGeady has all of their assists combined, +1.

Same as you though, hopefully someone picks him up off us soon.

Thats 7 assists in 43 games, in 2 seasons. Mirallas got 8 in 2013/2014 and 3 last season.

McGeady offers nothing, the majority of time its a hindrance as its like playing with 8 men. not 10, because it takes another 2 to make up for his 400 step overs in the corner before he passes it back, to one of the opponents.

Which is really annoying because i thought he would be brilliant for us... time to cut the ties and let him go... anywhere.

Then when he and Naismith play it must be like playing with 5 men?

Pretty much yeah... thought Naismith doesn't attempt the step overs, and gives to the poor, so he is excused.

Obv a joke, but cant argue he has offered much while he has been here, he has less assists and goals in 2 seasons then Mirallas, if he offered hard work, pace and grit we would all probably get behind him, but he doesn't. He really massively ineffective.

 

[mightymoyes]

we played better when he got sent off in the FA cup match at west ham from what i remember.
wouldve won the fa cup i reckon if he hadnt been on the pitch at all that night!

Fair point, I agree it is.

And, if Alcaraz were playing that would have us down to 3 men - throw in an off day for Howard and we could be into negative figures - what are the ramifications of that philosophically????

Aww. Please don't say it's a wind up !!!

No idea mate. Just not seen it anywhere that reliable.

 

[Toffeelover]

Reported Sunderland and Celtic interested but it is just rumours.

 

[Allezfan]

Honestly thought he'd do well here.

Shame.

Hard to believe alright and your right nothing but heresay is all it may be ... We can still hope anyway it might be true

Al that really shows is we don't create enough chances all together.

That's obvious.
