His style is awkward and his first touch needs improving . However there is a player there . He seems to have worked hard , not complained despite rarely getting a game . He has good movement and is energetic and has a goal in him
Perhaps we underestimate how difficult in can be moving to a new country and settling in , while getting little game time to impress .

I have spent far too much time thinking about this...

To the tune of Allouette.

Oh Mateta , Jean-Phillipe Mateta
Oh Mateta il joue en rouge et bleu

Avec sa tete!

(il marque un but avec son pied)
Avec son pied!

Et sa tete!

Verse again
il marque un but avec son cul
(il marque un but avec son cul)
Avec son cul

There's an anime film called Redline and the main character is called "Sweet" JP, think it suits him

Rascal backheel against the Weed
Meatball header against the scum

If he can reproduce that impressive form that was shown in that video then we have got ourselves a bargain at the fee paid, unfortunately since joining Palace we had seen very little of that if we are being honest. Only time will tell.

[Latvian Eagle]

Really hates corner flags doesn't he.

[audreytatou]
