    Been very impressed with young Matthews so far. He's been one of the better performers this season. Can't believe he's only 19 as well! :50:

    He's a great player, hopefully Lennon plays him most games this season.

    In the future, I think Du-Ri will leave the club because of his age (31) so, him and Wilson for the right back position, I say YES :50:

    He is so so young but has a lot of potential. At a club like Celtic though he has to learn very quickly. I hope the fans are patient with him. He needs to work on his defensive game a bit more.

    Also going forward at times he seems a bit scared of taking a player on. But him and Forrest on the right can work very well together. I think Forrest can also give him a lot of encouragement because for the age and size that Forrest is, he isnt' scared to take anyone on.

    aye, big future ahead for this lad looks the part,he hangs on to the ball to much
    for my liking and ends up losing it also lets it run away from him, so he sorts this out and we are on a winner.

    I have grown to like Matthews, at first I thought he was a Mark Wilson lite. However, he is better than that. Really good attacking threat, defends well and likes to link up.

    Arguably he has been the best acquisition of the summer.

    Only thing I feel he needs to add is his positioning. At times he doesnt cover along with the centre backs and get a little caught out. That will come with experience though.

    He has definitely won me over.

    Can't find his thread is there is one.

    Was brilliant tonight. Him and Izzy will be scary together. Should be first picked fullback, with izzy injured

    Aye cant wait to see

    Forster
    Matthews Wilson Mulgrew Izaguirre
    Brown Kayal Ledley Forrest
    Hooper Stokes

    Although Ki and Commons could play without weakening the team too. Just another few months until Brown, Izzy and Wilson are back :54:

    If we can hold on to some of the talent we have now for a few years then we will be the best team in scotland without a doubt :50:

    That's some team. I reckon after Christmas, things will be very different.

    It's gonna be very harsh leaving Ki out when Broony comes back. We're spoiled for choice in midfield.

    As for Matthews, he's been very good so far, I hope he can keep it up :50:

    Very smart too, As he either beats his man or leads him into the foul.
