El Miz

Post by moonwalk19 »

Anybody know if El Miz has had his contract extended by Ipswich. I have been told by an Ipswich season ticket holder that he his not in their plans to give him a 1 year extension

Looks like Ipswich haven’t taken up Idris’s option and he will be a free agent. There’s going to be a lot of interest.

Weird. Why wouldn’t they take up the option and then sell him and get some cash? Or maybe 200k to a new prem team ain’t worth the hassle

💯 agree Hoover, sign him up & give him the armband.
Captain El Miz should be the 1st piece of the promotion to Championship jigsaw.

I'd hate it if he played for anyone else, but realistically it's more likely that he will.
Fingers crossed

It’ll be the salary that other clubs offer which will do us in. I reckon he’ll end up at a mid-table championship club earning 5 times more than we could ever offer. Good luck to him.

Can’t see he’s good enough for a mid table championship side. Not enough goals for one thing. Top end league one, hopefully with us!

I reckon he’s most likely to end up at one of the big L1 teams, which will be even worse as he’ll be playing against us next season. Will still be earning multiples of what we can offer tho, I agree.

Best player in our squad last season IMHO. So on that basis you think we had no players in our squad good enough for the Championship last season or we have other players you think are better.

Yes, I think RW did a fantastic job to get us to mid table.
Imo, Galbraith and O’Neil have great potential and could be championship players, as could El Miz. But they are not there yet. Agyei is a real wild card, if he stays fit he could possibly be a championship player.
Going to be a tough season next year. We need to keep our best players and add quality and depth, not easy on our budget.

We at least have a chance. With a fee we may have not been in the running at all.

Absolutely . He's been our team's engine room . We didn't look the same without him so we've got to pull out all the stops to sign him .

I suspect as there is no fee he will be asking for a large signing on fee along with hefty wages. Would love to get him but there are bigger clubs in our division with more money than us think he will end up at Bolton or maybe Wrexham,

He turned down moves in January, to stay at Orient. He doesn’t seem motivated by money. I’d be veey surprised if he isn’t an Orient player next season.

Hope you are right but different circumstances now we know he loves it here but his long term future is different than a loan.

Absolutely this, we don't have anyone else in our current midfield anywhere near his level. Absolutely critical signing whether it's El Miz or someone else they need to be top quality or we'll be in trouble.

Ho loves the Os being in London he can easily travel back to France to see his family. His mum and Dad frequently come to see him play. That means a lot. If we can agree a signing on fee and give him a reasonable salary. Who knows?
