Mattock to go or perhaps not!

Recommended Posts

£2m? Yes please.

It's easy to forget he's still only 19, but I wouldn't lose sleep over letting him go. Replaceable for that kind of dollar.

Mattock seems to be the latest "hated" player, it doesn't matter what he does people just want rid when there are worse problems in our team/squad.

You hate Kisnorbo as well though. Even though he was one of our top players during our darkest hours. Nobody "hates" Mattock but people are just telling it as it is. Mattock was a massive liability at times last season, and he was often in the bottom 3 in the ratings on here.

Most importantly we aren't going to get someone of similar age and ability for less then we'd sell Mattock for which makes selling him a stupid thing to do because we're giving money away to basically have the same type of player.

Yeah, Jack Hobbs was bought for £400k and he's very good. If we decide to sell Mattock, there are other players we can buy for cheap. I don't have a catalogue of players on me, but if Pearson managed to find a bargain in Hobbs, then I'm sure he find a left back from somewhere. Mattock is easily replaceable. I'm not saying we should sell him, but the he won't be a big loss if we do so.

No, but you do have a catalogue of lingerie models you wank off to every night!!!

PS - Keep Mattock!!

I wouldn't be surprised if mattock left, he's not happy at city at all.

I would expect a relegated premier club or a promoted championship club to come in for him.

Cash in whilst we can I reckon.

I think he has room to improve and would be a good player for us if we kept him.... but any more than £2m and I think we're doing pretty well, could bring one or two (or maybe even three) decent players in for that.

Really, why not? or is that an educated guess?

Heard that too.

I can't reveal how I know this, but trust me I would be very surprised to see him in a city shirt next year.

Thats a shame. I'm in the keep him and help him develop camp. Plus its nice to have a local lad in the team.

I didn't and don't hate Kisnorbo, I just wasn't in love with him like most were until Tunchev arrived.

Seriously all those saying sell, who are you going to replace him with? NP may well know who he wants should Joe leave but I'm asking people on here what they would do.

The obvious name is Dan Fox of Coventry, but they aren't going to sell him to us for a penny less then we sell Mattock, you sell Mattock for more then you need to spend on a replacement, otherwise what's the point

If I had to, Dean Lewington from MK Dons. If Mattock went

Good.

I don't hate Mattock, I just think he's average. And he could easily cost us promotion. If he gives penalties too cheaply, sloppy mistakes allowing opposition to score. I'm not saying it's all down to him, but he's a liability - and it's just because he's aa young player, local lad, and has played for England U-21 that people rave about him. England U-21 doesn't mean much, loads of shit players get capped at that level.

And anyone who doubts a better player could be purchased for less than £2m is a mistaken. Tunchev cost what, £500,000 to £800,000? For £2m you could get two leftbacks as good as Joe.

Mattock is uninspiring. Steady... sometimes but prone to falling asleep in games.

he is young and potentially good but i think to really improve he needs to learn under the guidance of a better LB.

IF Mattock is unhappy at City then he is either too big for his boots ( would be surprised) Or feels he has gone stale and needs motivating/ a change ( more likely) Just me guessing of course. :)

2m? Just think what NP can do with that money......

This I agree with, I don't care if hes Leicester through and through or Forest through and through, if hes not good enough, hes not good enough, and £2mil? People will pay more than that I reckon. Because they just hear the over-rated views that he gets, he is developing but I think we could cash in for more than £10mil.

i think he will be staying with us for a long time nobody will pay 10mil for him(not yet anyway)

plus if he has a good season next year you all will be saying he is the best english left back after ashley cole and that he will be here for life

No, we won't.

And that is where people's opinions differ.

Many of us think that Kisnorbo was part of the reason that we we had such dark hours, in football it helps if you can pass a ball to a player in your side. If Kisnorbo is so good and Pearson is so astute at spotting players (especially centre halfs) then why has he never rated Kisnorbo?

I know whose judgement I'd back.

Am I the only one thinking that Mattock could be on his way out of the club - as he is in (effectively) the Reserve squad (at Loughborough) for this weekends fuxtures (I can't see anyone else in that squad who could be described as a 'First Team certainty' this season !) ?
