He does pretty well as a late starter in games
He does pretty well as a late starter in gamesI find it is the idea that he's reached his ceiling, when without having had the game time to prove it .
So it's based on a supposition . Mine's always been that it's within him to make that progression, even if it's late in a career ,it has happened to others, not forgetting he was a late starter.
I'd be surprised if either are here tbhIf we are in this league next season I’d be genuinely surprised if he’s still here.
When is Baka’s contract up? Both have played a role in our progression up the leagues but the club comes before sentimentality.I'd be surprised if either are here tbh

Both are out of contract this summer - I guess we will wait and see what league we're in.Have no idea tbh
Never got the Carl Baker fan boys, overrated. I doubt either will be here next year should we survive.Ultimately lads this is the reality... Neither are what we need if we are to progress further after this season..
I think biamou will be the choice going forward out of the 2... But their times here have both been uninspiring in the league View attachment 17813max

Baka
Whilst either wear the shirt they get a nod from me though
The way fans feel about max reminds me really of how they felt about Carl Baker tbh thinking about it
He’s miles away from the level of the first teamAll depends on how this season goes for Max and that may boil down to how MR approaches the remaining games tactically.
Personally don't see a Godden/Walker partnership being as successful as a Max +1.
We may well find a "better Max" next summer, should we stay up but I can also see him being given a short extension as back up and competition.
I'd personally like to see Bremang dripped into the squad for a few minutes here and there where games allow. He's been at the club for a while now. If he's not to get a chance then why is he still with us?
Honestly not sure what Max has to do to get the support of some on here. Man of the match performance on Saturday is followed by calls for his removal from the squad next season. Seems very unfair to me - why not support the players performing for us?Never got the Carl Baker fan boys, overrated. I doubt either will be here next year should we survive.

Just exactly what is wrong about having an affinity to a particular player?Ultimately lads this is the reality... Neither are what we need if we are to progress further after this season..

Just being pragmatic, Max has won me over but if we want to push on he’d surely have to progress very quickly. He’s a credit to the club though.Honestly not sure what Max has to do to get the support of some on here.

Aren't we meant to feel a connection?
Maybe it's their averageness that has permitted them the longevity here to actually build that fondness/rapport with the fanbase .

It is emotional ,for sure.Nothing wrong, can get a bit silly at times though, judgement well and truly clouded, it's human nature
It is emotional ,for sure.
Why do we like anything?
It’s actually quite strange, it was the same weird affiliation with Thorn.True, but like with many players in the past, the emotional argument always seems to consume city fans more than the realistic argument.
That's due to so many shit years imo, cling onto tryers and people who give their best..

Would be interested to know how many of those 70 are starts, and to know the stats after he scored his first goal. i remember he went ages without scoring his first.It's definitely due to us having so many bad years... And our fans do love somebody who tries... Nothing wrong with that, but the threads made after every single max goal do seem rather odd, as he's scored 11 in nearly 70 league games.. Inevitably strikers score here and there regardless.
But whilst he wears city colours he will have my backing for sure during those 90
Id be surprised if half the current squad are here. No doubt we will look to improve.
In saying that if Biamou continues his form and averages a goal every other game or 2.5 matches then hes out of contract in summer i woukdnt be surprised if hes offered another contract. Which well and truly shut a few up.
Wouldn't shut people up, we'd be disappointed we aren't looking for better.
That form you're describing over a season hasn't happened before so would be an anomoly

Give him a chance first. 11 goals in 13 starts or something like last season wasnt bad.
3 goals in about 4 starts this season isnt bad either.
Looking forward to tonight and next few weeks. Lol.
Not a bad return at all, very good Infact..
Next season we still need better.
Crouch had a great record for England, still needed better
Obviously if he scores tonight we will have loads of people tagging on this post... Hope he does BTW
We could say that about everyone in our squad barring Hamer and Dabo. About the only 2 players we have no chance of improving on, next season.
I seem to recollect that Regis didn't score loads of goals for us, but when he played the other team mates tended to score more often.
I await the statistical gurus to prove me wrong....as I said it's a recollection. Perhaps Biamou adds more than just goals
HeheheRegis didn't score many, I have no idea why I'm continuing this debate myself tbh... He plays he plays, he scores he scores... I'm going to make an effort not to discuss it anymore
Bizzare mentality when it comes to max full stop
I'm pissing against the wind with this one I'm afraid
