Phil Silvers Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Thanks to SG I think there are only 3 better teams than us right now, if we can keep it up 4th is a dream that might be achievable 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People really do have it in for this guy don't they. Edited December 16, 2021 by rodders0223 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching the game on a none stats basis - I didn't really think he did enough to justify his best FB in the world tag ,(the goal excepted) Biase creeping in - but for example I though Matty Cash put in a better performance V Norwich.

Herman22 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 On the Liverpool goal when Newcastle players were down holding their heads. It’s become a tactic to go up for a challenge and go down holding the head. It is expected that the ref will stop the game, and it probably should have been. But Mike Dean was the ref so anything goes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobzy Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 12 hours ago, TheAuthority said: Watch him every now and again and he looks useful but his output over any length of time is pretty poor. He’s a slightly more skillful, slightly slower Adama Traore. Not at all - the thing that brings him down is his 'greed' in certain situations (though I think a lot of that is down to who he plays with ) but he scores more, creates more, passes more and is just a much, much better player than Adama Traore.

Saint-Maximin played 60% of the minutes available compared to Traore, in a worse team, and still created the same number of "Big chances" whilst having 7 direct goal involvements compared to 4. This season Saint-Maximin has scored 3 and assisted 3, still in a worse team, whilst Traore has scored 0 and assisted 0. Much, much better. Edit: And that's only the statistics. Anyone who watches both of them play would see that Saint-Maximin is a better player. He's a proper game changer. Newcastle would be utterly shafted without him. If you replaced him with Traore, they would be a much worse side. It genuinely just isn't even close between those two.

Even if the goal keeper got on it, I think he would have been in the back of the goal with the ball. Trent Alexander -Arnold with a rocket of a strike.
