And within 3 games of joining us, he had 7 goals to put us top of the table! I wonder if anyone else has made such an immediate impact for us/anyone.

Stan Collymore managed 7 goals in total for us.

Yeah I changed my view very quickly.

I realized overnight I want this deal to happen mainly because of the probable spelling disasters. Two a’s in Maatsen will become one a or many more a’s. And autocorrect is going to have a field day. So along with Iling-Junior and Barrenechea, let the spelling nightmare’s commence.

Ross Barkley by comparison is boring.
I dunno, Barclay has potential.

Starting line up of Matsen, Illing Jr, Barracuda, Rodgers, and Barcley.

Not forgetting Ollsen, Ramsay, Bayley, Diabby....and Big Tim Irrogbenham!

Evening everyone, here’s a short video detailing everything you need to know about Ian Maatsen for those of you interested. In my eyes, this is one of the signings of the summer, and I’m stunned Chelsea have left him go to a fellow domestic rival in Aston Villa. I hope you find this useful – feel free to ask me any questions you may have about the kid, cheers!

Cheers Uti.  Looking forward to your videos on the Juve players we seem to be signing.

Nearly £40m for someone who's "piss poor in the air". 😂😂

And as soon as he has a mediocre game instantly changeable to Berkley.

I have often wondered what might have happened had we signed him a few years earlier instead of Savo.

For us, Saunders was close with 6 in his first 4 games.
