    Unlucky with injuries or highly injury prone?

    he wraps himself up like the mummy so I’m surprised he isn’t in better health.

    Love him when’s he’s on form, and that’s only one game in five. Spends most of his time rolling on the floor and moaning at the ref.
    Great when he’s playing well, but it’s getting rare!

    They are keeping him together.

    I do have concerns about his long term health.

    Max is class and will be a useful weapon in key matches in years to come.

    His goals vs Burnley were key the last two seasons... key goals

    Is this a competition thread to see how many times you can say "key" in one post?

    It seems that way
    They double up on him
    But saying that it should leave a man advantage, if only he would pass the ball

    He has been this season tbf but it's his decision making for me. Of all our players he'll take the longest to coach and mould into what he can be .

    I think he's been different under howe personally and this season before his injury he was on form with good end product.

    Watching him lately I’m not sure he can pass the ball.

    Injured playing a pass somewhat proves my point. Merry Xmas.

    You'll end up with Jacob Murray an extra 3 years if you chase max out 1st .

    The common theme is consistency bud. I hope he finds it.

    He won’t. He’s been found out and he’s no longer the big fish in a small pond

    If he played for another club you would be saying you'd love him here. It's the way it is with any player that's capable of the extraordinary.

    The word extraordinary means it doesn't happen all the time essentially.

    Matt Ritchie is the polar opposite but I liked that player too.

    Wolves didn't figure him out thankfully or we'd have lost twice this season
