He's a very good left back

Going from Josh Reid as your only competition for most of the season to a Portugese international is going to be quite the shock

I thought he was a bit rough around the edges when defending. Was class going forward though. Definitely a talented player though

Did I read that he'll be 3rd choice left back though

Maybe, they loaned Ampadu to Leipzig a couple of years ago and he played 3 games

I think they might use him as a more advanced player as they already have Schulz and Guereiro, that will be a fun one to see the forum try and spell.

Chris Kirkland. Scrap that i reckon Brighton is right with Warnock.

To be honest it’s a great advert for the club to players like him going out to our division. If JCS finds a decent move even more so

Probably right, amazing how a team that bad could win the European cup (knocking out some good teams on the way)

Was originally put down to play in the final as well. Looked good when he was here but never CL quality

Said earlier in season he looks a better prospect that Van Aanholt imo and he had a good career in premier. Fair play great move for the lad.

Great shout, but I'm going to raise you with Danny Fox.

Indeed, forgot Scottish clubs used to qualify for that

Liverpool didn't qualify for the CL that year as it was still only the top 2 at that point.
Hartson did though so I reckon he might be the last one, a genuine sale of a player to a CL qualifier

Fox sounds right. Hedman would be after Hartson also
Acknowledge he is very young and developing but I found Maatsen infuriating. Am probably wrong but I can only remember one assist (Godden at Hull) all season. Carries the ball well but was possibly as wasteful when in the final third as any player I can ever recall playing for us.

I don't doubt MR tried to sign him, he obviously rates him very highly and stated early he thought at some point he is going to be a top player, playing at a top club. He has improved in some aspects, and needs work on other aspects to get to that top level. But he has shown enough to suggest he has it in him to go higher. He had a decent season and it sounded and looked like he bought into the clubs culture which MR and the players must of liked.
However his parent club had a plan for him and we were happy to facilitate that process, it worked out for everyone in the end I think. He looked like he got a lot out of it and don't think he will look back with anything other than positive thoughts and words. And sometimes if you can sign the player that outcome is the next best thing.
The outcome will not put MR or the club off using this process every season. We are an attractive proposition for clubs and players alike. Many under this management have come and gone on to do well in the game, If not always on the pitch lots if not all have benefited in the pocket. This system helps us and needs to carry on, because every now and then we get to keep a real good un...

I think I have read that clubs can loan out a maximum of 8 players if that’s correct it would put Maatsen in the thoughts of Chelsea to move into their first team squad eventually good luck to him he’s a good player,
I’ve just checked new loan rules and it doesn’t errect players under 21

A good friend of mine nicknamed him bomb scare. When I asked why he said every time he bloody shoots twenty thousand people dive for cover!
I liked Maatson and would have him back tomorrow but I can’t believe he is good enough for Chelsea’s first team and I can’t believe dortmund are after him.

Thought he was superb at Fulham and showed how much he's progressed with us. Not sure Dortmund reserves is the best place for him but really hope gets a chance.

Either uput good friend is an idiot or it's a made up story to shoehorn in a years old bad joke.

Maatsen has a lot of potential to work with and with that a lot of areas still to improve. Think a lot of people forgot he was only 19 for most of the season with us. Needs to get better at his passing and shooting in and around the box as the priority for me, but if he continues to improve like he did for us over the last season, he'll be playing top division somewhere in a couple more seasons.

Shrewd move from Dortmund. A young player for a low fee and small wages, like mentioned above he'll be 2/3 choice but will be a solid back up.
I don't see him playing in the CL (maybe very early stages) or against the top side in the league.
