He has scored 11 league goals with 7 of them being in League 2, I don’t see how it’s ridiculous really

Goals against higher league opposition in FA Cup dont count

Grendel said:
So how then is he easily league 1 standard?

Lol he had a pretty good games/goals or MOTM performances against Ipswich x 2, Fleetwood, Peterborough, Bristol Rovers and Birmingham last season.

Fact is when he got a chance he performed. His mins per goal ratio is probably right up there in league 1.

ok......

Minutes per goal in L2 - 395
Minutes per goal in L1 - 163

Ponticelli has a goal every 109 minutes in league 2 I guess he was better than McNulty - In the Premier League Mick Harford averaged a goal every 18 minutes for us

Lets ignore his Cup record in FA cup and mickey mouse cups. which btw is even better ratio.

I'm done with you now - iv provided you with the facts as to why he is easily L1 standard. I am not wasting my time on a sad little man like you. Have a lovely day

Ditto - took the words right out my mouth. Big Love

Well I'll miss him, but if it gets him some football, and continued career progression with regular games, then everyone's done alright, surely.

We only play with 1 striker. Godden, Walker and Bakayoko would all have to get injured for him to be considered

I can see us moving to a front two, maybe even as soon as tomorrow. Then three strikers is not enough especially with all the matches we have coming up. One injury and we have no option.

clint van damme · Oct 16, 2020

He's no spring chicken. Best thing the lad can do is get regular first team football.
He won't do that at championship level.
Hope he gets a decent offer from someone in L1. Too short a career to be warming the bench.

higgs · Oct 16, 2020

Would keep him as squad player gives us something different off the bench a better finisher than baka

I'm not having this argument with you. You have made your feelings on Max crystal clear - its almost like he slept with your Mrs or something. You haven't got a fucking clue

Grendel when he hears theres a new Max thread.

But you have not provided any evidence. You quotes one star which I showed was not evidence at all.

Hold up, wait a minute, read that again. He just said he’s ruling out nobody coming in.

Well doesn’t that mean someone is definitely coming in?? Also expecting no business was to do with outgoings??

Not exactly crystal – or is it. You decide. Or don’t. What evs

Jamesimus · Oct 16, 2020

I'm guessing this could be news about his move to Real Madrid?

In all seriousness, I'd say he's a pretty limited footballer technically. Often can look like he's having a bad game / the ball is bouncing off him. Then he finds himself in the right position and pops up with a really important goal. Has obviously pulled some crucial worldies out of the bag on a few occasions, which leads me to then disagree with my own statement about him being technically limited.

I hope if he moves on, the fans at his new club give him the time to settle in and I'm sure he'll do well.

I can rule out there won't be anyone coming in .... I'm not down with these double negatives.

rob9872 · Oct 16, 2020

Whether you like him or not, whether you rate him or not, surely you can all agree that he's never given less than 100% in any game he's played and has given us all some absolutely terrific moments - some of my favourite being a City fan in recent years if I think of his away goals at MK Dons in the cup then Notts Co in the play offs and that volley at Peterborough away.

I'll miss him and wish him luck wherever he ends up.

Earlsdon_Skyblue1 · Oct 16, 2020

Out of all the players that come and go, I really have nothing bad to say about Max at all.

Of course, his goal scoring ability might be in question and we can argue about goals per minute all we like. He has however, given 100% to the club and community for the whole time he has been here, and that no question raises the spirits of those around.

I am really happy with his time at the club, and never expected him to be the next Messi. I will be sad to see him go because in this day and age a hard working footballer does seem harder to come by. He has scored some important goals, and if it wasn't for that one at Notts County, who knows where the fuck we would be right now.

I know I can sometimes be one of the first to get annoyed at players, but I really think we should be showing him a bit more respect here.

Evo1883 · Oct 16, 2020

This should definitely be merged with the "are you OK" thread

Evo1883 · Oct 16, 2020

For the record, I don't believe max is anywhere near the level some supporters think he is... However if his time here is done, then i thank him for his efforts and wish him well.. PUSB

Big news coming on Max...

Mind you saying big news, has he signed for man utd after they missed out on Haaland and sancho?

David O'Day · Oct 16, 2020

Grendal makes him self look a nause shocker

Tommo1993 · Oct 16, 2020

Cult hero. As much as it pains me to say, we’re now above his level, there are others too, not just him.

I will be sad when he goes. Like when Wilson floats off happily but me and Tom Hanks are in tears.

Would be sad to see him go and feel it would be a mistake unless we can replace with better.

If he does go he would certainly strengthen Bristol Rovers.

Why do we need a better fourth choice striker? Shouldn’t we be spending on our first team?

Greggs · Oct 16, 2020

Would be gutted, but we have to progress. Thanks for all the screamers Maxi

Max would be way in front of Bakayoko for me.

Tommo1993 · Oct 16, 2020

I’m gonna guess Swindon.

DannyThomas_1981 · Oct 16, 2020

Without Max and the goals in the closing stages of the L2 season, we simply wouldn't have been promoted - and that could have been a real disaster - just look at Notts County today.

And Max certainly didn't look out of place in L1 after he was over a very serious injury. He's always stepped up. The goal against Peterborough was personally my favourite moment of last season.

It's astonishing that some posters on here (usual suspects who clearly live to see others not make the grade due to their own failings in life) seem to want players like Max to fail.

Happy_Martian · Oct 16, 2020

5pm, transfer window has closed and nothing further reported. Max is still our player, I guess.

Walsall are looking to loan a Centre forward (although manager said, he hopes for 'free', which doesn't really help us)

Some moves get reported late

shepardo01 · Oct 16, 2020

Moves can go down to the wire.
Extensions can be granted if moves are close and proof can be provided, and permanent moves can turn to loans if there are problems (Benrahma to West ham for example....)
So there could possibly still be "outs"

better days · Oct 16, 2020

Max was told a while back that he could find a club as he was well down the pecking order for the 1st team
I guess there may be some wrangling going on if we want a fee for him
The lad wants to play at his age
