8 goals in 28 full games is the equivalent of 13 goals in all 46 matches. Not really that poor for a second striker. Not when the first striker's 27 goals would take the total for the two of them to 40 striker goals in total.
And that ignores the hold up skills, commitment and assists Max provided too. (You've guessed, he's one of my favourites!)
My post straight after yours points out that Ponticelli played in quarter of the game Max did if you want to extend his stats to 46 as you have done he would have scored 30 .As for his hold up skills most of the time the ball was headed on in no particular direction hence only 5 assists all season ,commitment if any player does not show that they should not be in the team. I just think as i,ve said before he learnt his game in the first team not his fault
