    I like the look of him, good Footballer and great pace.

    Lets not forget either that hes one of the youngest players in the SPL. I can only think of Fraser Fyvie and Stevie May who start in the SPL that are younger than him and Davie Weir of course.

    I think Adam Matthews looks a great player in the making at only nineteen.
    An absolute flying machine going forwards, and better defensively than either Cha or Hinkel was.

    Is he the future at right back? The more I watch him, the more I like him. I don't think he's ready for the big stage yet, and I love, love, love Mark Wilson, but I think Matthews has a little more in his bootbag than Wilson on the pure talent scale. We'll see, but I like the guy.

    He's a good player, only 19 though so plenty of time to make his way in to first choice. Should grow a beard as he looks a bit like McGrain.

    He most certainly is. In fact going on form he would be starting for us.

    My only observation that he is a bit too casual and shows a wee bit too much of the ball when he takes his man on.

    I'd pick him before Wilson. I really like him, but then again i'm not really a fan of Wilson.

    If I'm being totally honest here with regards to Mark Wilson, and Adam Mathews, both are good players, but I'd say Mathews was the better player of the two, more pace, better defender, loves to burst forward too, and not a bad passer. Mark Wilson, I also rate a very good player, great commitment, likes to go forward too, but I dont rate him good at defending. So, as I see it, there's positives and negatives in both players, my preference though goes with Mathews.

    Can't agree at all, I think his maturity on the ball belies his years.

    The only problem I can see with him is he is always going to be beat in the air.
