A few years ago, Adam Matthews was the name on everyone's lips, and whilst he seems to have faded out of the limelight, Dick Advocaat seems to think he still has something to offer by bringing him in. In his first few friendlies for the club, he looks like a perfected version of Billy Jones; more composed and more capable defensively. It's hard to go wrong for the small fee of £2 million and we could have another bargain gem full-back such as van Aanholt.
