Just noticed that Matri didn't have a thread yet.


For kurt


He came on and did this then completely vanished. Hoping he does well against Celtic we seriously need someone other than Balo to step up atm but with the midfield we have our forwards (no matter who) will continue to struggle

Wrong topic.

Hopefully han can happily admit he was wrong about this signing like with Pazzo. Don't let me down Matri!

If he's as important as Pazzo was last season I'll be happy to do so king.gif

We just got rid of this dude, right? Loaned to Fiore?

Posted by: X-Offender Jan 18 2014, 07:12 PM

Right.

Best of luck to him. Hopefully we'll do well and we'll get some of our money back.

Seems to have started off well enough for Fiorentina. Either he just got lucky on his first game, or this is yet another example of how a player can produce much better results under a good coach.

I wouldn't blame everything on Allegri, Matri simply didn't fit in with us, and that may be due to a number of reasons. I think it was our playing style first and foremost, it simply does not truly fit a classic 9 like him, it's much more rewarding to the likes of Shevchenko or Zlatan, who can produce goals coming from behind, on one-twos, even from awkward positions.

I also suspect there may have been locker room issues too, seeing as the club was in crisis and still is. It's unfair to ask a new player to adapt in such conditions. We may just see Matri shine in Fiorentina.

Good point, Matri does not fit into our system. Please remind me, who is the person who asked for Matri? :-)

OK maybe it was Allegri laugh.gif

And finally the last, and definitely the least, Matri...

Another waste of money we could all see from a 1000 miles away.

Hopefully will be off to newer pastures this summer. Bologna and Sassuolo are both interested. We need to make sure to sell him this time, no more loans. Just get him completely off the books and try to get a bit of cash in the process

Bye bye Matri, never wanted you, never needed you. Good riddance to a waste of money. 1 goal for us in a 1-1 draw. 12m well spent

Remember, it was Allegri who wanted him badly.
