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
Fair enough. He is a squad player though. Very few teams have 18 class players if any. 5 year contract just means we have more leverage if we decide to sell him.
 
Strong selling position or no, 5yrs!...at 29?
They must have wind of an offer, either that or Kenwrights lost the plot...again.

edit; also he's never been the same since ratboy did him

Pretty much this... apart from derbies and Man U games I haven't seen him perform well tbh
 
Quote where i said 'peripheral' mate?

I said Squad player, yanno like Daily Blind who has started 31 games for United this year and pretty much played the same amount of minutes in the league as Mirallas, would you say Blind is a vital part of the United first 11 or is he a squad player who gets games in various positions?

1 in 3 games this season when fit he has been chosen to not start a game mate

He is most often played out of position - and has still been involved in 10 goals (scored/assists) in the league.
False analogy: United have been involved in far more competitions and on long runs in them and have to dose the use of players. Blind, for example, in all competitions has played 45 games...and been sub in only four of them.

Blind has played in 36 games this season (all competitions Dave) not 45

Both of them are squad players, we have europa next season with possibly an extra 10-15 games coming that season, we have gotten rid of some of the absolute dross we had and still have some to shift this summer - which will leave the squad really thin on numbers, even with a very good summer of recruitment, players like mirallas will still be needed for a fair amount of games, and rightly so.
