Ian Maatsen

[Fulham Broadway 16,393]

 City now want to sign him – as he is refusing to sign a new contract.

That is according to 90min.

We've activated an option in his contract to extend it by a further year.

Since they are not first or second option for any position it would be amazing if we could generate around 100m for Chalobah, Maatsen and Broja. Pure profit for academy boys.

Walked straight into the starting XI

Lining up at left-back for Dortmund, the Dutchman recorded the perfect assist as he dispossessed his opponent deep in his own half before breaking through.

Surging up the field, Maatsen lifted his head and played a stunning diagonal pass to release Donyell Malen, who was left with the simple task of slotting past the goalkeeper.
 

Meanwhile a third fan remarked: "It doesn’t matter if the clause for Maatsen is €35 or €40million, they HAVE to pay it. He’s the best player on this team and it has been just two matches."

 

 

gotta laugh at people saying he’s mediocre and can’t play left back.

Poch out 

[Fernando 6,376]

Yeah I think Poch is not cutting it as a youth manager. 

I think Lampard was the best at giving young players a chance. 

The only problem is that Lampard was not good of a manager.

Poch has this thing with tall LB during his days as Spurs his favoured LB was Vertonghen

Vertonghen very rarely played LB under Poch

it was Danny Rose and Ben Davies mostly

[King Kante 1,297]

I think with Maatsen it was principally the case that he had to be sold/put in the window for FFP.

He wasn't giving enough opportunity....although I think it was as well he didn't want to sign a new contract. 

[NikkiCFC 7,582]

Scored. 

[lucio 5,395]

Massive baller , should have been starting here 

[bluesman2610 1,226]

I like the fact that he can play on either wing well and centrally. Hopefully our next manager can see his talent

remember, Dortmund have an option to buy him for £29.75m

of the only LBs I would truly want

Alphonso Davies
Nuno Mendes  
Federico Dimarco  
Theo Hernández  
Alejandro Balde  

none will come here

so we will have to either hope BD doesnt buy Maatsen

or go for

Miguel Gutiérrez

or

Quilindschy Hartman

or

Pervis Estupiñán (Brighton, eeeeeek!)
Alejandro Grimaldo  
José Gayà 
Rayan Aït-Nouri 
Antonee Robinson
