It seems he lost any confidence he had to run directly at the opposition, not surprising given the flack he recieves of he loses it. I think it’s more likely he’s lost confidence in his body Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More of the flack is for standing waving his arms about, berating the ref as he was simply muscled off the ball as the opposition break on us.

Gallowgate Toon Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 He was absolutely pelting about against Liverpool and was trying to open up a lot in the cup final too. He's definitely been protecting from some sort of injury over the last 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 I like Maxi but I think he plays in a position where you can get someone in the £40-50m bracket who'll score and have more assists plus carry out the high press better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say overcomplicate though, I just think they've tried to improve his decision making and it looks to have gone the other way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that was kind of nothing to lose and everything went through him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post about it going on longer than 2 games is about him being reluctant to go direct at the full backs these days, much prefers to pull it back than take his man on.

I agree that he almost looks like he is deliberately over forcing a different style of play at times. That doesn’t always work out, as he isn’t really that kind of player. I just thought the last two games. He genuinely had chances to get at his man. But just didn’t seem able or willing to. He was electric against Southampton when he came on, the odd time against Bournemouth he looked on it and then was the Maxi of old against Liverpool. Which all makes me think he is carrying an injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
