Shhhhhh no he's not he's amazing, Prem standard just there are 5 others at United that are that and above in midfield.

 

[CPB]

Feel a bit for him but he should never have been signed.

I don't really know what role he was supposed to do in our midfield. That includes under Selles.

Ironically he didn't look too bad Vs Ipswich until they scored. But every other time he looks lost to me. And is really quite lightweight.

I fear that for him physically wise I can't see him really cutting it above L1.

But it says something when Oxford fans were surprised we took him.
Mind you same was said from former clubs of McGuinness and Chong and Godfrey...

[FriethBlade]

Oxford would make sense after his spell there last season

 

[Wardy1889]

Can’t seen him going Oxford unless it’s a permanent. There not far behind us so can’t seeing it being a loan

 

[Keen Blade]

That's the best news all weekend ...
Maybe there'll be a bidding war ...
All the way up to £50k

Wasn't he among the names on that photo of Oxford transfer targets that was circulated?

 

[Houston_Blade]

If he goes to Oxford is it possible for us to waive the ‘can’t play against your parent club’ clause so he can play against us and weaken their midfield?

That’s standard practise loaning a playing to a club in the same league.

You need to re-read his post

I know, I’m asking that he does play. He’s shite so I’d prefer him to play against us.

Yeah he was. Although why wait until now, he has been available all month

 

[Wright1889]

Apologies.

 

[FredZeppelin]

If he's going for free we should make them take Adam Fucking Davies with him.

Either that or they pay a fee. Your choice.

utb

Good point. Presumably it means they're not interested.

Unfortunately it a league / Fa rule shame

 

[Champagneblade]

Unless were guaranteed to get Rothwell, we loan him out at our peril, with Davies injured again and Peck and Arblaster just back, the latter from a long lay off, not k mention Riedewald.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Stuck with him for now it seems

 

[10p]

Where is Matos now? Does he get a game with the U21’s? A couple of teams allegedly wanted to loan him but nothing happened.
Does he leave on a free transfer in summer?

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Can’t get rid of him because of the ridiculous wages so I hear

 

[mattbianco1]

Is there a player in there?

I've not seen anything to suggest this, but Chelsea obviously saw something in him to snatch him away from Norwich at 18yo.
Unusual for Chelsea, Man City etc. to take a player at that age with zero apps.

More than likely theres a player in there .

Probably "fit shamed" the rest of the squad, hence got bombed out

Probably worth investing more game time into Matos than Soumare who is only on loan. Or Davies who can’t ever be match fit.

 

[Badger Blade]

Wilder seems to have made it clear that he knows who he wants, who he doesn't and what he expects of them, especially in pre-season where it seems a few of our squad are in for a rude awakening.

If he isn't going to play, get him gone for our sake and his.

 

[JohnDenver]

The Wages of Matos (1956)

Greek swords and sandals epic starring Charlton Heston and Elizabeth Taylor.

Fact.

We clearly tried in January. It isn't simple to get rid though.

 

[Hallamboy87]

He's on a lot of money here! he will stay here unless someone can either match his weekly wage, or we pay him off!

Apparently on £10k a week for an 21 year old with 8 appearances for us should be doable to move on. Even taking a slight loss on him wouldn't be the end of the world to be fair either, he is an expensive U21 squad member and even more of an expensive non squad member
