Scout Report – Modibo Maiga
Filed under: Scout Reports - Posted by: Paul
Sam Allardyce continued his summer of first-team restructuring on Wednesday with the acquisition of Modibo Maiga from Ligue 1 side FC Sochaux. The highly-rated 24-year-old arrives on a four-year deal thought to be in the region of £4.7m and is the fifth player to make his way to Upton Park since the club’s promotion, following the transfers of Jussi Jaaskelainen, George McCartney, Stephen Henderson and Mohamed Diame:
The Mali international has already received Premier League interest this year – he failed a medical last January at Newcastle, with the Magpies turning instead to Papiss Cisse to boost their strikeforce. A versatile player, he is primarily a centre forward but can also play on the wing; at 6 foot 1, though, Big Sam is likely to play him through the middle as he goes about addressing his options up front. The new boy made all the right noises upon his arrival earlier in the week, going on to say:
I am really happy and excited about joining West Ham United. I know West Ham are a big club in England and I’m really looking forward to representing them. They have huge tradition and it is like joining part of a family and that is one of the main reasons I wanted to come here. I know some of the big names that have played for the club in the past and I am proud to be part of a new team back in the Premier League.
The Statistics
Maiga first start in professional football came in his native country for Stade Malien at the age of 15. He featured just three times there before making his way to Morocco to turn out for Raja Casablanca where, despite failing to score in 22 appearances over the course of a couple of seasons, he won the Arab Champions League and Moroccan League. As a 20-year-old, he was snapped up by French side Le Mans and flourished in a team that also featured the likes of Gervinho and Stephane Sessegnon – Maiga returned 15 goals and six assists over 88 appearances prior to signing for FS Sochaux in time for the 2010/11 campaign.
His first season at Sochaux was a spectacular success, with 15 goals and three assists from 36 appearances, though Maiga suffered in comparison last term. The club’s refusal to allow him to join Newcastle in August 2011 saw him go on strike in order to force a move through – eventually returning to the first-team, he found the net nine times and produced a pair of assists from 23 league matches as his side stuttered to a 14th place finish. Maiga has represented his country on 31 occasions and notched five times – no doubt we’ll be subjected to plenty of “the next Freddy Kanoute” headlines over his time at Upton Park.
The Prospects
A powerful striker, Maiga will also bring plenty pace to the Hammers’ up front options next season. His dynamic game is suited to the speed of the Premier League and will perhaps stand him in good stead in terms of game time next term, providing he can keep his temperament in check. Allardyce still seems undecided on Carlton Cole – 12 of the forward’s 43 appearances last term came from the bench and while Ricardo Vaz Te impressed with 12 goals in 18 appearances upon his January arrival from Barnsley, question marks remain over his ability to produce in the Premier League.
At present, plenty speculation surrounds the West Ham front line. Moves for Andy Carroll and Dimitar Berbatov have been mooted and, while neither may come to fruition, the intent is clear – Big Sam is looking to freshen things up in the forward positions. Looking at the stats, Maiga is clearly best utilised as part of a front two – those 15 goals in 36 appearances in 2010/11 saw him partnered up front in a 4-3-1-2 but Sochaux’s move to 4-2-3-1 last term clearly dented his potential.
If he can nail down a regular role under Allardyce, Maiga could earn interest as a cut-price option in our Fantasy squads. Similar to Cole and Vaz Te, he comes in at 5.5 in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) though intriguingly, the Sky Sports game has priced him as the cheapest of the trio at just 6.1 – many are likely to hold fire at the moment, however, with the Hammers certain to continue their summer spending.
Certainly, the opening set of fixtures have been kind to West Ham. Over the first five Gameweeks, Allardyce’s men play host to (AVL, FUL, SUN) and with trips to Swansea and Norwich also on the agenda, confidence in their budget and mid-price Fantasy assets will be relatively high. In terms of ownership, looking at the Sky Sports game, Maiga is the least popular of the Hammers forwards so far – while he’s likely to sneak under the radar of many, then, the new boy may well be quick out the blocks.

“I love to attack and I love to go up front...It is a little more difficult than when you are playing centre-back. If you play the way that I want to play, I think my influence is better as a left-back. For the team, it is best that I play as a centre-back. I like to bring the ball out. You need to move the game quickly, and that is one of my qualities as well.”

Is a Rooney – Aguero – Torres strikeforce too much? Doesnæt give me that much to play around with in midfield.
July 21 at 9:00 pm

yes it is
July 21 at 9:03 pm

Thanks, would have to see what to do about that. 2nd option is to squeeze Pogrebnyak in for one of them. Would give me plenty of ££ to tinker with. And it seems that’s in the line of what “everyone” else is doing.

It’s still damn tricky to make a good balanced team.
July 21 at 9:15 pm

Rooney, Kun and Holt at the moment for me.
It’ll be them 2 plus Holt or Gerbil basically. No interest in Torres. He may turn out alright but too many people been burned by him and I’d rather learn by other people’s mistakes than make them myself.

That gave me a bit more money for midfield…

Tevez and his price tag is an interesting one. Will keep an eye on that one.

Got burned by opting for Torres over Rooney in the beginning last season, so if I end up going with him this season as well, I will not be without Rooney for sure.

Im going Aguero Torres(Rooney) Ade
July 21 at 9:17 pm

Ade may be worthless to us all now as its alleged that he’s not going to Spurs any more, apparently.
Not prepared to take pay cut and Spurs can’t afford the wages he’s on at Citeh. The curse of Bogarde may yet strike again.

I really don’t know right now. We have the spreadsheets to look at but it’s all to early to make these decisions. 11th August will see me start thinking, at which time I expect the wife will announce we should go on holiday for 2 weeks!

July 21 at 9:37 pm

Problem is that Gorkss may not start and they are all playing for teams that I think will struggle to keep cleanies and may well concede a lot of goals.
Going for 3 £4.5m defs give you a much better choice of starting defs at decent clubs for only £1.5m more.
Remember that there will still be some weeks when your cheap defender is going to have to be the one to bail your defence out.

Daniel - Chelsea champions says:
Reading this article and noticing: ” is the fifth player to make his way to Upton Park since the club’s promotion, following the transfers of Jussi Jaaskelainen, George McCartney, Stephen Henderson “
So Jussi and Henderson both are big Sam Allardyce signings. The no 1 place is up for grabs. There, it could be our 4.0 starting keeper.
July 21 at 9:25 pm
Warlock says:
+1
July 21 at 9:29 pm
nomar says:
Think you’ll find that Jussi was a direct replacement for Green at West Ham as soon as Green’s new contract talks broke down.
No £4m keeper for thee, I’m afraid.
July 21 at 9:37 pm
Daniel - Chelsea champions says:
Bogdan case?
July 21 at 9:44 pm
nomar says:
Couldn’t displace Bogan.
Word on the street was that Bolton felt Jussi was making mistakes and costing Bolton points.
Kind of not really what you want to hear from a newly promoted team that you are looking at filling one of your two keeper spots with.
He may be fine, but I have reservations about West Ham (and the other 2 newly promoted sides too) and think there are better options for £4.5m.
Barring injuries it doesn’t look like there are any £4m keepers that will start this season so you really have to make your money count in that position this year.

Jenkinson wagon

nomar says:
In other words, Jenkinson not really worth a punt.
Especially if you have to swap a Chelsea defender in GW3 cos they are too expensive to keep on the bench.

Pog will be competing with Noble for biggest let down…

B
The Pog can’t be relied on week in week out, but a DGW with potentially big returns at 5.0 is too good to ignore IMO. I’m sure we all remember his hat-trick last season? Maybe he won’t fire, but at that price it’s not a huge loss and minimum of 4 pts is better than a good chance of 2 for anyone else in his price bracket.

Chris says:
Sorry to be thick but can someone tell me when the price changes start to happen? I am presuming it is during th first game week, as that would seem sensible, but I can’t remember from previous years.
Cheers
