From looking at his goals his positional play looks good and he knows where the goal is.

Subject to home office clearance? One for the future then... So-so record by the looks and another punt on someone we hope we can improve and make the step up. Fingers crossed.

A signing rather than a loan. Hopefully a star in the making which we can make a profit on after he has scored a few goals for us. Fed up of us making loan players better for the advantage of others.

Just out of interest were there other FL clubs showing an interest in this player ?

A three year deal is a vote of confidence. It’s a gamble but feels like an exciting gamble, let’s hope it works out.

Have a feeling this was a 6 figure signing.

Never seen this guy play, not heard his kiwi patter, but I've got a feeling this guy is going to cause massive cases of soiled undergarments in L1 defenders.

He won’t be the first guy called Mata to score at the Meadow.

When was the last time we gave an unknown striker a three year deal? Perhaps we had better not go there I really hope that we've unearthed a gem!

Feeling quite positive about this one. Goal every 3 games in his career isn't bad going evening if they were in lower quality leagues.
He appears to have had a lot of clubs in his career so hopefully he can settle into life in Shropshire.

Big big fan of this, hopefully he's able to play Saturday.

Let’s see how he gets on with L1 defences. Wonder if we will see him used more as an impact sub for the start of the season while he gets used to League One football. Like a few of our signings think it might take him a little while to get used to the physical rough and tumble of League One, but hopefully can come on later in games initially when defenders are tiring a bit and make an impact that way. Certainy good to have another striker on the books

Our new number 10! (Certainly in terms of the training kit anyway! ;-) )

Championship clubs were interested.
We'll either sell him for seven figures or we'll be having a "three year deal" conversation down the line, I hope it's the former!
Best of luck Max!

Welcome Max. Hope you make more of an impact than the other Kiwi striker we signed on a three-year deal - the one and only Kris Bright. Still shudder at how terrible he was and makes the O'Brien signing look like a steal.

In terms of LI rough and tumble, hopefully he will get plenty of that in training. If he cannot handle a centr back who wants to kick him up in the air …..sorry, he is no use to us.

In his interview he says he’s in mid season. I wonder if this will impact on him towards the end of our season.
Apart from that welcome to him and let’s hope he does well.
