A lot of Newcastle United fans have responded to Allan Saint-Maximin’s video as he closes in on a return to action for the Toon.
The 22-year-old posted a video of him dancing to Michael Jackson in his house and with the caption, “When you don’t feel pain anymore.”
Will Saint-Maximin's return make a difference for Newcastle?
Yes, they are a different team with him
No, they will still struggle
This led to a massive reaction on Twitter from many Toon fans who were delighted to see him moving freely, but were also cautious that he could hurt himself in the process.
Newcastle’s captain Jamaal Lascelles even commented.
When you no longer feel any pain ??? pic.twitter.com/Nrh82HELHo

Other Newcastle supporters, though, want Saint-Maximin to take it easy.

What do we think?
The French winger could be available for Newcastle’s match with Chelsea on Saturday if his moves are anything to go by, and his return comes at the perfect time for the Magpies – who have only won two games without him.
The 22-year-old who cost the Toon £16.5m in the summer has made a big impression on Tyneside with his unpredictable playing style and extreme pace, and it will be a significant boost for Steve Bruce to have him back.
