I was going to post this in the "MOTM" thread, but thought it better not to take away from the thread, so... What is it I'm not getting with regards to Maxi? I didnt even know he was on the field on Sunday until the 22nd minute. He is missing for the majority of any game he plays, yes he might pop up now and again and do something useful, but generally, I just dont seem to be seeing what those who sing his praises are seeing. Goes missing, doesnt really do anything in my view worth talking about, has the odd decent shot when there is a blue in the months moon, and has scored how many goals??? As I say, its just me not seeing what others see, but, Maxi is another Garcia, in as much as he didnt do that much, (Champions league goals aside) but the majority saw something more than he was, than I did. Not a dig as such, I just cant for the life of me see what so many rave about, sorry. So please enlighten me.
