NWMag Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 My worry is that against Wolves they will double/triple up on him, leading him to having a quieter game and everyone then deciding he’s no good again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that too but Sky stats at the end said he only got 2. Does him winning the freekick count as an assist? Never really thought about it before Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikky Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 For me that’s 3 contributions from ASM My target for him was 12 - he’s already a quarter way there if he can get between 12-15 that puts him in some serious category Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can get 10 goals + 5 assists he’s laughing and so are we. He was superb yesterday, unplayable, unstoppable and bang on point. 3 assists against Man City is worldy like!

The College Dropout Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 20 G/A in the league is excellent. 15 is the base for a very good season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 He's starting to play these absurdly delicious passes where he used to run the blind alley or shoot, love that change in his game. Second half where we got a shot away though, that interchange with Bruno/Joelinton was wild, he got up like a mad man to get the ball back and spring back up to attack - the adrenline he had was insane!

Lenny Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 I thought he largely tried to do the same against Brighton however every time it came to the cross or pass it was of poor quality. It was a poor performance, but not through lack of trying to do the right thing. Very good sign that he's working to align to our way of playing.

BottledDog Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Nobody really knows (at least not anyone relying on twitter spreadsheets). However, having to take a second job on hawking card games tells its own story. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Guessing he was top end of the Ashley structure but that'll be overtaken quickly over the next 2-3 years. If he's still one of our star players then it'll be understandable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they don't need to do it just yet, if he's still flying by Christmas, then he'll get what he wants. Seems like we are still sniffing round Jack Harrison though, doesn't he also play LW?

Tiresias Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 From the athletic: Yasir Al-Rumayyan, Newcastle’s chairman and governor of Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), and the club’s ownership team were so enthralled by Saint-Maximin’s display that they requested an audience in the tunnel to bestow praise upon him.
