Matias was a good player but spent too long on the sidelines. I actually thought he was starting to look a player around the time we released him. Good Portuguese tart shop though.

83owl Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 So including the on loan Ross Barkley we have got roughly somewhere between 12-15 players that have moved onto better things after being with us and that’s over the last 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Cadman Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I’ll be honest I thought Matias was below average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The injuries were a huge issue with Matias, but he was pretty effective when fit. He was directly involved in a goal every 194 minutes for us, which dwarfs his replacement Harris' involvement every 543 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, we cant look back. We might as well. We've nothing to look forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same problem on a Saturday night. In fact most nights, come to think of it. I tell my wife it's vertigo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
