I'm surprised that we never looked at him, even allowing for the obvious shortcomings of our scouting team. He is the perfect size for a Tony Pulis team and would have fitted into the role behind the main striker better than Adam has done, but with a slight reduction in workrate over Jon Walters.
The manager seems to be keen to evolve but often picks the wrong players for the wrong roles. Michu would have been an interesting acquisition.

Sometimes everything clicks for a player at a club, then when they leave they are never as good as they were.

Pulis has no interest in evolving. You have to pissed if you think Michu would be able to hold down a regular place in a Pulis team never mind score 16 goals

Well he did play for Rayo Vallecano last year and ended up as the top goal scoring midfielder in Spain. So I'd say he was good, but we don't watch any football outside of the premiership and maybe a couple of Championship matches here in England.

You have to pissed if you think Michu would be able to hold down a regular place in a Pulis team never mind score 16 goals Yes I do watch Stoke and until recently I've seen a manager that thinks evolution is asking a central midfielder to play as an auxiliary striker behind a very static target man. My original post was not to say that Michu would score 16 goals in a Tony Pulis team more than to say that I think he would make a better fist of playing the role of an auxiliary striker than Charlie Adam.

Can't remember where I read it now (maybe Bunnys interview with Warey???) but apparently Lou told Steino to forget side footing his shots and just blast it. When you look at some of Steinos goals (the two v United and away at Rotherham leap to mind) that must rank as some of the best managerial advice ever!!!!
