Kevin Mirallas

That fee will be huge, in which case we'll be able to bring in at least three £20-30m players.

Add in the sales of the proper trash Martinez accumulated towards the end of his tenure (Niasse, Kone, McGeady, Clevs) plus the possible sales of Funes, Del, McCarthy, one of the keepers etc, and we're looking at another £40m minimum from players we don't need.

How much will be spent on lawnmowers?

Embarrassing and useless though?

Odd how Williams arrival has seen us concede far fewer goals this season, and Swansea have shipped far more.....spooky coincidence.

Bolasie was doing alright until his awful injury, to label him 'useless' is completely clueless.

This really.

Williams isn't the best, but as a stop-gap (which is what we needed) he's done just fine.

Bolasie was our most exciting attacking player before his injury. Hopefully he comes back strong.

DCL is a young lad whose come up from Lg 1. The stick he gets from some is bloody infuriating.

The Niasse and Cleverley sales may just about cover it...

As someone on Twitter put it last night... if Mirallas is the worst player on our bench next year, fine by me.

We could do worse than Kev - more than happy to keep him as a squad player.

 

[TrixyStevens]

If he's a squad player then yes, very good idea to give him an extension with Europa League next season.

 

[Pabbers]

He was good in Europe tbh.

 

[coollino]

Not signed yet i see. Reckon it's now been rejected?

 

[bluenosematt]

Not a player to take us to the top 4. I dint think anybody is arguing that. But we have the europa league next season. This totally changes the format and first 11 week in and week out. He will be a squad player. Starting and coming on for the so called easier fixtures. He works hard. Has a bit of ability. Doesnt give the ball away. He just lacks goals and final ball. He will do for partucular matches when players need rest. We need a squad and he will be a decent squad player.

You've just described a mediocre player. Why should we settle for mediocre players even as squad players? Mirallas only plays when he feels like it- not good enough for me.

Mirallas is the type of player that Pochettino got rid of at Tottenham within 2 years, if we want to get where they are we should be doing the same, not rewarding them for being inconsistent and lazy.

Hopefully he's not been given a crazy pay rise. If fairly sensible then hes great to keep in the squad..

 

[GwladysPhil]

lol imagine the fume if he doesn't sign today.

 

[4737carlin]

Should state against Watford, since he has signed, bench for Barkley who hasnt!

Because its not plausible to have 18 Ronaldos mate... How do people expect us to replace the entire squad with world class players in one season? Boggles me

I like kev

I don't expect us to have 18 Ronaldos mate but Mirallas doesn't look bothered most of the time. Neither does Lukaku you could say but at least Lukaku makes up for it with his goals- bar about 5 games over the last 2 seasons Mirallas has stank the gaff out
