Allan Saint-Maximin (now playing for Al-Ahli)

I'm in disbelief at some of the posts in here like. He controversially said some nice things about Steve Bruce and all of a sudden he's public enemy #1 :lol:. Bruce really was toxic for people wasn't he.

 

Our best player by absolutely miles and our only hope of staying in the league this season, as he was last year and the year before. Criticising him for the last 3 matches where our forwards were given a completely impossible task is absolutely mental tbh.

There's no reason why ASM won't do really well under Howe. What a luxury of a player to have to build an attack around. I'm hoping he's the cherry on the top under Howe as opposed to how he was our only Plan A under Bruce, give it to ASM.

He'll be the Jordan Ibe Howe never got.

Think he’ll come Into his own once we have a competent full back behind him, so that the opposition can’t double up on him every time he gets the ball.

They have at least 3 maybe 4 players on him now when he gets the ball, if we even had one other creative midfielder for them to worry about that they wouldnt get away with that

Time to nut up and stop sulking about Bruce. He’s on the cusp of greatness here, hope he doesn’t fuck it up like Hatem did. Happily, I don’t think he will, even though his life is going to be very, very different from today onwards. He should be doing everything in his power to still be our talisman a year or two from now, and a regular in the France squad.

Nail on the head there with the reference/comparison to Hatem... The talent is there and he could become one of the best players in the prem, but he needs to realise that a great player is one who gives their all (100%) to the team every game. He cannot shy away from the hard yards, that is one of the base pillars of team games; attitude, hard work and enjoying the game!!!

Fuck the hard yards shit .

 

We need him up the pitch taking players on and scoring goals .

 

Ginola was similar , a legend , didn’t want him chasing around in front of our defence , fuck that , if we are to get out of this he’s the man .

The key to ASM is finding his best position and not having him have to do so many defensive duties as he’s an attacking player and I’m of the belief you defend from the front forts by attacking first, that and he needs better players around him.

Maybe, just maybe, his downturn in form has absolutely nothing to do with "sulking about Bruce" ( :anguish: ) and everything to do with the ridiculous way we set up in the last three games with the whole team apart from him camped 10 yards from our goal?

Different game now though, all the best teams have no passengers. Wouldn't want him constantly running back in fullback positions but definitely needs to put more of a shift in than he has been.

We're not anywhere near being one of the better teams at the minute though. ASM has been isolated up top under Jones, playing in a system that's designed to sit back and soak up pressure for 90 minutes. Granted, it hasn't stopped Wilson from putting a shift in but everybody's different to some extent. ASM will come good again, he's out of form - nothing more nothing less. If we have a Wilson and ASM playing well we'll survive.
