Play-offs

[Pegojack]

Well, my French mate's club Metz made it back into France's top division via a very impressive performance in the second leg of the play off final last night away at Reims, which they won 3-1 after extra time, having drawn the first leg 1-1 last week.
The player I said we ought to recruit as a replacement for O'Brien, Gauthier Hein, was the man of the match, creating the second goal and scoring the third with impressive skill. I recommend you watch the four minutes of highlights on Flash Scores. This lad is 28 and is valued at 3.2 million euros according to the site. A steal. Go and get him, Gorringe!

I know nothing about him other than the above and Fotmob stats. However, these are very impressive. Best in league for successful passes, pass accuracy, accurate long balls, chances created (a staggering 110), successful crosses, touches, recoveries and penalties scored (6). Clearly a top talent at Ligue two level. Average Fotmob score 7.83, which is exceptionally good.

Fotmob has his main position as striker, but has played in all forward positions.

He's not a striker, he's very much an attack minded midfield general. He's quite short and slight, not a striker by any means.

Sounds more of a 10 or a false 9 than an out and out striker. Clearly very talented.

Watched it in YouTube.

For context Finn Azaz was the Championship's leading chance creator with 88 from 45 games. Hein created 110 chances from just 33 games, 50 per cent more on a 90 minutes basis than Azaz. Impressive.

Not convinced on the blue hair
Saying that though that left foot of his seems lethal
The way he consistently finds the bottom corner right next to or even off the post itself is remarkable
Looks like he would thrive in a number 10 position

There's a couple of clubs we've had battles with in the past.

52,115 attendance. A reflection that both these teams have played higher up in the pyramid
New record for a National League game

And now the ref’s been subbed. Suffering from cramp.

Two goals in three minutes for Oldham in extra time!
