Allan Saint-Maximin

That was the big problem. When he was fit and on form he was almost unstoppable and as said above needed so many to stop him he made spaces for our other attacking players.

Latterly, unfortunately, those days were few and far between.

Maxi was like a hot girl in Alaska.

The lasses who live up their are durable types not dolls. So when one turns up every fella falls in love.

Maxi gave us some entertainment and hope he could do something amazing to win us a game.

Sadly he didn't do that very often. In fact barely ever. However, as he was the only hottie in our squad we fell in love.

Stats, the man was below average. He rarely converted his runs into goals or assists. The facts are plain to see.

We love the romance of a left side swashbuckling winger. However Maxi was out injured as much as he was tearing up defenses.

I don't think we miss anything he has to offer. The rose tinted glasses have powerful effect. What might have been... the City game... not enough.

Give me 10 goals & 10 assists from 2 direct technical wingers over a fancy Dan strp over merchant all day.

Yes and no. I miss the excitement and his 'character' and the potential he had.

The sad thing is that we saw him realise his potential on too few occasions.

Personally, I'd rather have kept him but got Barnes too. FFP has screwed us over massively and it would seem he was the price we had to pay.
