Lake Palmer aka Monk wrote:One of our worst ever forwards. A horrendous waste of money. Make as many excuses as you like about positioning etc. He played all last preseason upfront, scored a few and then when the real stuff started he went completely and utterly MIA. Awful player, terrible finisher, shit workrate don't let the door slam your arse on the way out.

Can't believe people are defending him. He was utter pony.

A full back might be a bit more attacking or a bit more defensive, but they are basically a full back. A striker could be anything from a Carroll to Cottee to Maradonna to CR7... it seems to me that Maiga's strengths - running at full speed at the goal - are totally and utterly different from the strengths of the bloke he was back-up to. I'm not saying Maiga is great - far from it - but I expect that he'd tell anyone who will listen that he's a shit load better than his West Ham performances suggest, and I'd believe him.
