Mateus Mané

[Lycan]

Doesn't have his own thread as he came through the academy (via Rochdale). Might as well start one with the news from Madeley this morning that he signed an extension until 2029 in September.

 

[Lupo]

I said it on the verdict thread, whilst not making outlandish and premature predictions, his confidence, maturity and ability gives me young Robbie Keane vibes

Love to keep him and build round him in the Champ

 

[WVWolf]

That's brilliant news.

I was fearing him getting sold for very little in the summer. Obviously, if he keeps performing like this then there will be clubs in for him, but now we're under no pressure to sell so it should be a massive fee.

Realistically, I'd hope/expect him to be around in the Championship for him, and I've no doubt it would benefit his career playing week in, week out at that level.

I agree with the comments above with Keane. It seems ridiculous (and it is tbf) to be getting so excited about three starts, but sometimes you rarely see someone special but I get that with Mane.

 

[Loki]

If he continues in this vein of form he`ll be gone.

I obviously hope that he stays but if that does happen then at least that's £40m+ PSR free added to what we get for JSL, J.Gomes, André etc to go towards a much needed rebuild.

Keane came from nowhere and scored two on his debut at Norwich. It was clear within 20 minutes of his home debut the next week he was something special.

Provided someone meets the asking price.

Jury is still out on maturity for me. He certainly makes mature decisions on the pitch. Time will tell if that carries over off the pitch.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

He talks a lot about God on his social media.

Don't know him personally, meant maturity on the pitch, the way he carries himself and how he isn't phased by what's going on around him

For sure for sure. Obviously I’m his boy; he lets me just call him Matty

Jokes aside, I couldn’t agree more; I was truly stunned when I realized it was him wearing #36. He makes decisions like someone with a thousand senior minutes, or at least he did yesterday. Really exciting stuff.

 

[SSB]

Wonder if he got a Bully Calendar for Christmas as well?

 

[Lycan]

He seemed like a nice lad in his interview on MOTD (I think that's where I saw it)

I seem like a nice lad but we know better

Jokes aside, so much will be impacted by the people around him having his best interests at heart, rather than their own.
