HawK Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 There's no doubting Hatem's on-the-ball talent, but he'd never fit into an Eddie Howe team because of how he sets teams up to play off the ball. You just can't have one player not doing the high press, if you do then it leaves gaps in the press to be passed through and all of a sudden you're 3v3 or 4v4 with the defence back peddling very quickly. What a player though, one of my favourites. What is it with this club and mercurial French wingers, particularly left wingers? It really is a bit odd. Ginola Robert Maxi Hatem (on the right) Not that I'm complaining, between those 4 you've got most of my top favourite 5 PL-era NUFC players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 To be fair even ASM did the pressing required this season which is kinda unexpected. You can see how strict Howe is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Edgar Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I know he wouldn't pass the "no dickheads" rule, and wouldn't defend properly, but I'd love it if we signed him up and let him roam the final third. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 My greatest regret is not seeing him play a couple back to back seasons every game under a decent manager at his peak. Whoever fault it was, it's surely a missed opportunity to bring joy into the game. Hopefully St Max can replace it somewhat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
