Newcastle United: Geordie fans react to Allan Saint-Maximin’s upgrade

Many Newcastle United supporters have reacted to a tweet from Allan Saint-Maximin posting a funny reaction to his brand new FIFA card.Β
EA Sports announced the release of the initial FIFA Ultimate Team Birthday squad on Friday to celebrate the eleven-year anniversary of the popular gamemode.
This year the first starting lineup features players with five-star skill moves or five-star weak foot and Saint-Maximin’s card has received a special upgrade (Chronicle).
The in-game French speedster has been boosted from an overall rating of 79 to a high 88, with the left-winger having a five-star week foot, and a ridiculous pace rating of 97.
The 23-year-old wrote “uh haha” with an iconic meme attached:

Saint-Maximin has scored 2 goals in his first season in the Premier League for Steve Bruce’s Black and Whites, averaging 1.7 shots per game, successfully completing 4.4 dribbles, and making 1.3 key passes on average in the English top-flight (WhoScored).
As per usual, the fan favourite’s latest post prompted lots of responses from the Toon Army, with several supporters pleading with the video game developer to update his face, and another Geordie saying “inject it into my squad.”
