    Most consistant player this season so far. Never really seen him half a bad game. Up there with Hooper, Forrest, Forster and Wanyama for my POTS so far

    We signed the lad because he had lots of potential i never expected him to be so good this early,a definite starter every game for me and looks as if he is going to have a great future ahead of him.....

    100% agree, can't believe some of the pish that's getting said about him on this thread.

    I really hope lennon give him the same freedome to go froward he gave wilson because matthews was immense against inter milan in pre season going forward he was troubling the inter defense the whole game

    I really like him especially at his age. The only thing I would like to see ironed out his game is he can hump the ball aimlessly up the pitch on occasions but he is still young. Our best RB.

    I think he's turning into a great wee player. Doesn't mind getting stuck in :50:

    think it was his 20th the other week Alsy.
    But what a player he is. What a player.

    Hope we can keep him for 2-3 years. (would love more but he's destined for some top teams (4-6) in England, like many of our squad sadly.).

    Great piece of business getting such a promising young player for free. His defending is solid, he has good pace, can dribble, can cross, a capable footballer (in terms of link up play), and a very long throw in to add to that.

    He has really grown since we turned it around! Credit to the likes of him, Wanyama, Forrest and Rogne. The guys range from 19 to 21 and have all been great.

    hopefully not for a few seasons at least, we should tie him down to an improved contract and then when that is close to expiring sell him on if he doesn't want to resign. That's the way we should handle all of our young players, pay them buttons at first and when they show they can cut it improve and extend their deals and then keep them as long as they are willing to stay.

    another impressive display, his throwing is a real danger around the box and his link up up with jamesy is getting better by the game.

    Rock solid at the back, genuine quality going forward. Will only get better both physically and when he gets some experience.

    He is going to be worth a fortune in a couple seasons.

    Great wee player and one I hope we can hang to for another 2-3 years at least. He can only get better as he gains experience and develops his game.
