Jimbo Ram Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 If the ownership isn’t sorted in January and clubs come in for our players is it up to the Administrators to decide who to sell and to negotiate the fee ? What say, if any, will Wazza have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leroyoftherovers Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Pretty sure I've seen an interview with him saying he wants to establish himself as one of the best centre midfielders in the Championship. You can't do that in League 1.Hopefully we pull off a miracle or he has a change of heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curtains Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 He is such a great lad and such a great footballer. Love the way he lets the ball run past him and turns. His passing has come on leaps and bounds He is the playmaker. Just needs to add goal scoring to his game.

No way Sage, think he's the best of the young lads, have for a long while,just pointing out what he's previously said, I would be gutted to see him leave.

Curtains Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 When you think Max lost his father which was awful for him and I commiserate. He is the most amazing person and a credit to us all Crewton, Carnero, EtoileSportiveDeDerby and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jram Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Max Bird is a super baller. So much improved since that disastrous debut against villa Biggest complaint was always lack of bravery on the ball but can’t criticise him for that now Crewton and LeedsCityRam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donegal Ram Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Agree with most of the previous comments but, for me, he tends to drift into a position where he is not open for a pass. Seems almost that he is marking an opposition player when we are in possession. This does go on too much for me and he doesn't work hard enough to improve it. ( Thought it only happened when alongside Shinnie but no). Then all of a sudden he wants the ball every time and is a driving force. A player who is improving and his confidence is growing rapidly. Keep it up Max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
England Ram Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 For me it is really telling that he has so much more confidence in Thompson to take hold of the ball and not lose it compared to Shinnie. I love Shiniesta, but technically he has been found wanting a few times. You can see Bird and Thompson happy to receive the ball and play it around the opposition mids, along with Knight when he is in there. This has helped Max move on another level with a better player around him. The Scarlet Pimpernel, Dethorn, angieram and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has helped Max move on another level with a better player around him. I agree. I have always understood the love for Shinnie as he has tremendous heart, and work rate, but as a technical footballer he is very limited in respect of passing but most of all ball retention. He often finds himself out of position too chasing the ball. As much pinball as pit bull. Thompson has both good positional sense, and great passing success stats. Must make Bird more confident that he can be more expansive with his own game. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
