Transfer Rumour New signing pending - Rabbi Matondo (306 Viewers)

[torchomatic]

I’m now thinking of a Cov Scottish 11!
I’ve whipped up a very quick and inaccurate 11…

1. Jim Blyth
2. Paul Telfer(?)
3. ???
4. Gary Macallister
5. Gary Gillespie
6. Steven Pressley ()
7. Kevin Gallacher
8. David Speedie
9. Willy Carr
10. Sandy Robertson
11. Dougie McGuire

I got bored/ran out of steam. Please do a proper job!

Davie Bowman! He had a shot on him.

Bit underwhelming if so

Not for me as I've never heard of the fella.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Or Sakamoto

Especially in a time we aren't playing with Wingers and have 2 x RWs sat on the bench along with Tavares who has tended to play there for us.

Sakamoto is in the picture. We just don’t have 2 wide players available to play a formation that best accommodates him so he’s a casualty of a forced system changed.

5-3-2 is a well balanced system for the squad of players we have available atm.

Ashley Cain was an unbelievable athlete when I used to run with him back in the day. Never seen anyone like him, he was a machine even when he was like 14. Was so impressive to watch him in the 100m sprints.
Won pretty much every race bar one. Was a long time ago but I think when he was 14/15 he was running 100m in something like 9.7 seconds

Think i prefer this to the Sorba Thomas rumour and i don't think he'd have been bad either.

 

[shmmeee]

Looks rapid and travels well with the ball.

Looks like his final ball needs work, few times there where a simple pass would have lead to a goal and he shoots instead. Looks exciting on the ball though. We really need players willing to take a man on.

Fastest ever British 100m at 14 is impressive indeed

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

71 on fifa pretty good that

 

[Lamps]

Started off the season well but lost place due to injuries.

The problem with Scottish players is other than 2 sides that would comfortably play in the Championship he wouldn't come up against many good sides. And he plays for one of them.

In his area for his age group.

 

[Skybluedownunder]

Doubtful. World Record is 9.58.

My bad, it was a long time ago.

Just looked it up…

He added the experience actually led to him being number one in 100m and 200m in Great Britain as a junior, running 100m in 10.8 seconds

The world record time when Ashley Cain was 14/15 was 9.77 seconds so I guess he was actually the fastest man on the planet at the time

 

[David O'Day]

I can’t see us signing this guy along with Schlupp with EMC and Wright playing in that left wing/LF position.

Schlupp will play in cm as he has played there a lot since he got older

Normally a second, here or there, wouldn't matter... just the wrong instance

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Swansea fan: Stay clear of Gyokeres, he's rubbish.

Coventry fans: Waste of money signing Gyokeres for £1m

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Just hope he’s alright playing on right, he hasn’t got a chance playing once Emc and wright are back on the left

Hamer a liability. Need to get rid.....

Rabbi Matondo - Most Played Positions

See all the career stats for each position Rabbi Matondo has played in, along with his rating for each position and preferred foot.

www.footballcritic.com

He's pretty versatile. Which is why we're probably looking at bringing him in.

 

[Deity]

Matonda is right footed, even though he plays off the left. Maybe we plan to have him as cover for either wing.

Indeed i recall Oggy saying he was surprised we had bought Vik whilst letting Biamou go. He would have kept Biamou over Vik. That didn’t age well.

Sounds like exactly the sort of thing Ashley Cain would say

Bobby McDonald left back

 

[David O'Day]

If this does happen then it's a back 4 i guess

he needs space to run into and doesn't have the trickery to play in a 3 as part a of a 3-4-3

 

[Briles]

I said Im not interested mate I'm make shit loads out of love island

 

[Terry_dactyl]

Bobby McDonald left back

I thought about him. Some of these being named are slightly before my time.
Gillespie would’ve been the one I’d have loved to see play…just cos I remember him at Liverpool. He looked class.

 

[BrisbaneBronco]

Davie Bowman! He had a shot on him.

Jim Brogan

 

[skybluecam]

A versatile winger is great, means we can go back to 433 and try Wright in the middle with cover on both wings.

 

[SkyB]

I like Matondo, think he's a good player from when I've seen his highlights.

Do not understand this signing. We had 3 wingers on the bench last night and another 2 injured , where is he suppose to fit?

On the wing.

 

[Skyblue54]

Always rated Neil martin

 

[GIMOC]

To be fair he clearly has just seen Dawkins tweet

what are you talking about?

I don’t follow John but he hasn’t tweeted anything from what I’ve just seen

I think he can play across the front 3 from my understanding, Wright isn't going to be up to speed any time soon and if we are moving back to one upfront the only rw we have is saka (and tavares who's not getting a look in) Lampard loves wingers.

 

[Otis]

Dawkins just tweeted then deleted a tweet about Rabbi Matondo so I'm gonna assume it's him

Not sure a Rabbi is the answer at the moment, with things so sensitive with Palestine and Israel.

Personally see Fabio as a striker. Raphael is a develop project so won’t start. This lad has experience and therefore would be starting on either wing and provide cover for both. Might even push Sakamoto out

Snap

Oh bloody hell. Not another injury.
