Except for the part that he his best goals+assists in a season is 7( 3 goals and 4 assists ) in the last 2 seasons in a row.
Thats half the productivity of Traore's best couple of seasons ago (4 goals 9 assists).
I'm not even bassing raw numbers as the proxy of performance measurement but if I was then............
Traore (last 2 PL seasons + this season)
2021/22 - 4 games (348 mins) 0 Goals 0 Assists
2020/21 - 28 games (2645 mins) 2 Goals 2 Assists
1919/20 - 27 games (2608 mins) 4 Goals 9 Assists
Total: - 59 games ( 5601 mins) = 6 Goals; 11 Assists: A goal every 10.37 per 90 mins. An Assist 5.66 per 90 mins
Saint-Maximin (last 2 PL seasons + this season)
2021/22 - 5 games (450 mins) 2 Goals 2 Assists
2020/21 - 19 games (1568 mins) 3 Goals 4 Assists
