mrmojorisin75 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 His end product looks turgid. Judging from one YouTube video; Yep, pretty much. Again looks exactly like Zaha in style and end product. Would expect similar stats from him as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consortium of one Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 With Almiron, Joelinton and St Maxamin what formation? 5-2-3 or 5-3-2 with Almiron in the midfield 3? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collage Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 With Almiron, Joelinton and St Maxamin what formation? 5-2-3 or 5-3-2 with Almiron in the midfield 3? Just use Rafa’s system, swap Perez for S-M and Rondon for Joelinton? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I’ve done some Dennis Wise scouting. Saint-Maximin seems to be a more athletic Ben Arfa without the end product. Pretty exciting to watch. Him and Almiron alongside Joelinton would be fun to watch, potentially. Looks like an ever-so-slightly better version of Atsu to me. Every clip it looks like he's not sure what foot to use next and never seems to quite have the ball under control. Doesn't quite know what he's going to do next.

Gallowgate End Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 With Almiron, Joelinton and St Maxamin what formation? 5-2-3 or 5-3-2 with Almiron in the midfield 3? Just use Rafa’s system, swap Perez for S-M and Rondon for Joelinton? Won’t happen sadly I think it will be 3-5-2. It will suit some players like Shelvey less so Almiron if he plays him in midfield.

Disco Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 A dwarf winger with no end product. He’ll be even less popular with the Donnay Ultras than Perez and Thauvin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like Obertan Highlight reels for Obertan pre Manure were better tbh. Saint-Maximin does look quality though and is versatile. Most videos look like he is most comfortable on the left though which we don't need so much. Hope we hit the bullseye with Jim Bowen though. He is more like the Right Winger we need.

chicago_shearer Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Fast forward to December and he's dropped from the match day squad for a relegation 6-pointer. Local media stories euphemistically referencing the player's lifestyle and attitude. Bruce talking somberly about needing 'the right kind of lads' and 'fighting for each other'. Pundits nodding in agreement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate End Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Don't want to turn my nose up at signings right now but I really hope we find an alternative to Saint-Maximin. Jean-Philippe Mateta is the one I wanted more than Joelinton, Saint-Maximin. Proper striker reminds me of Demba Ba. Joelinton will need time to make the striker role his best position.

Astroblack Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Saint Maximin looks alright. He seems to advance the ball at every opportunity. But he’s fallen out with Vieira at Nice. Doesn’t bode well but I want him. Looks fun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toon No9 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Jarrod Bowen would be a good signing. Would play a 3-4-3 formation with Almiron - Joelinton - Bowen as the front three. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
