Mathieu has gotten a lot of stick from a large portion of our fanbase. Even after being completely shafted by Nice, kept to train with the U-23s, Mathieu in his last two performances for us has given it his all.

He deserves some praise for being a model professional during such difficult times in his career. I feel for him as he was bought to be our starting RB, but injuries and Hector Bellerin's entrance to the first team have plagued him from ever being that player for us.

I wish him the best for both us and his future endeavors!
