I wouldn't be surprised to see him move on in January, not sure it'll be a hefty fee though, given Martinez's attitude during his first season for helping Heitinga and Jelavic get game time before a major tournament. The problem is the standard of club that will be interested and the type of club Mirallas believes he should be at will be a few levels apart.

Apart from not being in the Europa this season we're a club at the top end of his limit, any move for us will be either a sideways step to become another bench filler elsewhere or a backwards step to team where he'd be the star man but have no chance of European football or good cup runs.

To be honest if he's prepared to wait it out he'd be better sticking round and waiting for his chance, but looking at his career history he's not really proved to be a patient man in the past.

If he stayed in England, where do you reckon he'll end up friend?

Swansea maybe.

I doubt he'd stay here though, that's why I think we'll only ever get our money back or just over for him.

Spurs do need some width, perhaps see him going there?

I agree with you though, he isnt at the level of the top teams because he doesnt play well enough consistently enough. That's, for me, what separates the Kevs to the level above him.

I think we do need to be demanding top dollar for him though as he does have a good reputation still outside our club. We are riding a wave at the moment, but as others have said, if Deulofeu gets injured and we are turning to McGeady for that magic moment then I reckon we are in trouble!

I think Pochettino values hard work more than Martinez so I'd be very surprised to see the work shy winger head south.

But if he does go I'd expect we'll have someone lined up to replace him before it gets as desperate as McGeady having a prolonged run.

Agreed, Spurs is unlikely, just a thought.

As I see it Mirallas doesn't provide much in the line of width.

When he gets the ball he always seems to cut in rather than go outside his man, making an angle for a cross.

For an alleged winger, crosses in from the byeline are few and far between.
