  • Rabbi Matondo to Stoke

    Looks like they are signing him on loan. Would he have come back to us? I have a feeling in the back of my mind that he didn't leave us on great terms???

    He'd come back, he's a City fan. He's quite vocal about it on Instagram but I bet he's on good money at Schalke (they signed him for 12.5m after all!) and we haven't got any money! Harris said we brought in Wilson over another right back as the budget was too tight, so unless we manage to shift Murphy/Hoilett I think it's a non starter unfortunately. I'd love him back, he's got raw pace which we lack.

      But we signed Will Vaulks. This club is a mess.

            Did we have different owners then?

              There was nothing wrong with the Will Vaulks signing. It was a punt at a low cost

                I watch a fair bit of Bundesliga and he hasn't pulled up trees. Man City must have been laughing all the way to the bank at £12m.
                He is probably one of Schalke's highest earners but the fact they're considering loaning him out shows where he is at with them even in their predicament at the moment (adrift at the bottom and in line for record games without a win in Bundesliga).

                We have other wingers with bags of pace that rarely produce the goods. Matondo is no different. Has pace to burn but the rest of his game isn't up to par even given the slim pickings we have on the wings currently.

                  I’ve seen nothing to suggest that he’s going to be anything more than Championship standard at best

                    Before I get shot down here I have just checked his stats.

                    He has made 32 appearances for Schalke and has a total of 2 goals and 0 assists.

                    He seems to get in great positions with his pace but always ends up with the wrong option being taken. Think a very expensive Josh Low.

                      Sorry, I've got absolutely no idea what you were driving at when you brought Will Vaulks into the equation. I shouldn't have bothered replying.

                        He is a half decent player he's typical of other signings , where they were doing a half decent job at a lower Championship club , or was their player of the season, so we take a punt , bit like Cunningham, Nelson, Whyte, Moore, Pack all reported decent performers at thier
                        clubs .

                          £2.5m is certainly not low cost.

                            Correct.
