Pace & Dribbling
As expected, he is one of the best dribblers in the game. With his small body type, he feels very agile and can do the skill moves very fast. If you can find open space ahead of him make sure to use his pace to explore it because he will accelerate so easily.
Passing
I must say, my expectations were really low about his passing, but I need to admit he surprised me. His passes in general are really accurate even with the weak foot. I find it really efficient to get the first ball to him while building up and he is the one that passes the ball to the key space afterward. Crossing and passing are strong with him.
Shooting
Even though I scored a lot of goals with him, I find his shooting a bit weak and inconsistent. If you can green-time every shot, be my guest and score a lot of goals with him, however he seems to miss easiest opportunities sometimes. Therefore I wouldn't recommend him as a striker!
Conclusion
Let's come to the best part. Allan Saint-Maximin card is a very decent one, but I think he is a bit overpriced, compared to the other TOTS cards. However, if you are doing objectives and completing upgrade SBC's and have fodder, you can finish him for free. That is the only way I would recommend doing him, he is one of the best wingers that you can have for free, if you have fodder. And once more I need to emphasize; I wouldn't recommend playing him as a striker. He is an insane winger, so get the best value there!
