As under 21 manager, I would have thought Darren Purse would have little input into the situation regarding Matondo - he barely played for Purse’s team. I don’t get to see as much of under 18 players as I once did, but, based on what I have seen, there are quite a few who I would have been more concerned about losing than him.
