Garcia, is okay and a trier but not the answer at right back,

Interesting how different people see different things, I thought he looked good the last two games, for someone new to the country, I think he has great potential.
Garcia looks fine as a full back, Maatsen is a concern for me , defensively he is fragile .

This is the first game I’ve ever been to at VP where I didn’t care about the score. Took my 7 year old lad for his first ever game. It was just magical. Best VP experience I’ve had in as long as I can remember.

Good to hear, I take it he enjoyed it then?

Bloody loved it. Wants to go again asap but asked that we get the train next time. Didn’t get home to SE London until 10:30. Whoever on here suggested parking in Star City is in my baddest of bad books.

Blimey I got home to South Devon by 9pm and I went to the Lower Grounds for a bit after the game. Traffic was grim getting away, I think something had happened on the M6, took me an hour to get to West Brom and the M5. Glad your lad enjoyed himself.

M6 south was worse than usual as well although I couldn't see any particular reason other than volume. A cop car went speeding northbound so maybe there was a problem your way.

I said at the match, how much did we pay for Maatsen in comparison to Garcia?

Wow.

Tottenham and Man U are Ipswich's next two games. Watch that Lev Yashin bellend turn into an amputee Taibi.

The last second save would have been an OG as well because Rogers whiffed it, although he probably would have saved the initial shot anyway. I mean the only time we scored was when Rashford dummied the freekick off the cross bar so he wasn't in between the sticks to save the follow-up.

Maatsen was in the CL team of the season last year, so there's clearly a talented player there. To my gammy eye he's not as fit as he should be. If that's an issue, he needs to address that first. You have to be able to mix it physically to thrive in the PL.

In fairness the price tag was part of the PSR game rather than true value although he was voted best LB in the Champions league so although to me he looks a little lightweight he will come good

Maatsen looks about 12. Can we get him on booster-boots? There's only one Alan Wright...

Great to hear, he can’t change now, his choice (or yours) has been made!
I normally park just past Star City before you get to the Lichfield Rd and it’s generally not too bad although I imagine actually getting off the car park at Star City could be problematic.

If it’s any consolation the trains back were buggered. I was on the Marylebone line but it was jammed as apparently the Euston trains were down. Always more annoying when we haven’t won.

As has already been suggested, you need to take off about £19m off the Maatsen fee, as that was the Omari Kellyman part of the deal.

We're a bit of an enigma at the moment, aren't we? Straight out of the traps against Spuds, then slow, slow, slow in the first half against Town.

But that renders Kellyman worthless which is not the case, he's a very highly rated kid.

Both fees were probably a bit inflated to meet the same needs for each club, I think shaving £10m off each side makes the figures a bit more realistic.

And it's easy to point at the difference in fees between Maatsen and Garcia but the latter hadn't just been voted the Champions League's best full back and transfer fees on the Spanish 2nd division are generally buttons.
