Hardly an original comment but we could do with him back.

Did not look to be moving that freely before the game.

He looked to be moving well as he was walking in front of us 🤷

He had those trendy clog things on though that may have prevented him running etc 👍

We miss him, he's the key to unleash the front 3 for me.

We are definitely missing the maestro. My other concern is that he is yet to sign a new contract. I reckon he'll have a great autumn to his career. He seems to be getting better and better as he assumes the role of elder statesman in the team and acquires greater confidence as a result. If he's willing and able we should make a real effort to sign him up. Any known reasons for this not happening already?

I'd expect to hear something in the next quarter. Contract extensions and renegotiations (or not) are normally done in the period after the summer transfer window when Phil, Lee and Keith review the plans for next season.

Agree, has a touch of the Luka Modric's about him, getting better with age

Mathias Jensen is also set to miss Saturday’s trip to the south coast as he continues his recovery.

“He’s doing well,” said Andrews. “He won’t be involved tomorrow. Realistically, I don't think he'll be involved next weekend."

“We’ll see how he goes next week, but certainly not tomorrow.”

Hopefully getting fully recovered and ready to go after the international break.

Nice to have him back. One lovely cross that Anthony probably should have done better with. Some nice clipped balls over the top and some nice passes. We looked better going forward with him and Sangare on the pitch.

Sangare and Mathi are a good combination.

We'd also be more effective with Kayode's throw-ins with Jensen on the pitch. The option to throw shorter to him to deliver into the box from a different angle, with the opposition defence set at the near post to clear a throw, would result in many more opportunities. Add Collins into the mix for far post headers and we'd be scoring more.
 

Mathias Jensen

Sangare plays better with Jensen alongside, the short interchanging of passes and moving attack quickly from one side to the other is noticeable and then you realise Jensen brings momentum and the press with him as well. The team just looks more in sync and fluid with Matti in position.

It was good to see Jensen back yesterday.
I think that Sangare & Jensen may start
next week? Just my opinion, based on their ability of moving attacks from side to side as detailed above.
The solidarity of this current squad is top drawer, whoever is selected in the starting XI will put a shift in.

Totally agree. When Matti got injured I thought oh s###. Now I'm really looking forward to the Liverpool match. Shame about 0-60 Zebedee, but that's being plain greedy.

Agree. I think maybe the same starting midfield we had in the first game against Tottenham. Worked well then
 

Mathias Jensen

He was excellent.

Is the contract situation around him wanting to do something else or the length of a proposed deal? I would love to see him extend
 

Mathias Jensen

We've missed his long ball passes – it needs more time for Ouattara and Anthony to anticipate them better.
 

Mathias Jensen

A rare off day. Battled hard and won the ball back high up the field several times. However, his song today might have been “… he to frequently gives the ball away”
Have to applaud him for the best free kick we’ve had in a long while when he hit the bar.

Did I hear KA say '...and hopefully many more to come' when discussing future appearances? Is this a hint that a new contract is coming soon. I really hope we can get him to stay longer.

All the right words, but not necessarily in the right order. 😉

I totally agree with you, though. Matti is a special talent and is a major contributor to the team (as Keith mentions). It will come down to all parties concerned when sorting out his contractual position and unless there are strong reasons for him leaving (e.g. he wants to move away, the club want to give more playing time to the younger players we have bought, etc.) I, for one, would be very disappointed to see him go.
 

Mathias Jensen

Really good player overall, my only concern is that I'm not sure if our current playstyle suits him perfectly. When we play a formation closer to a 4-2-3-1, I think that Sangare/Janelt/Yarmoliuk are better suited for the double pivot and Damsgaard is the better choice for the more attacking minded midfield role. With him starting in that more advanced role as Damsgaard finds fitness and heals after that injury last international break, I think it's been evident that we don't have quite the creative and attacking punch that we usually would have. In a perfect world, he'd be competing for that second choice attacking mid role with Milambo, Carvalho, and Dasilva.

Been an incredible club servant, but I would still be a bit surprised to see him stay longer term with younger players coming through.

I see Thomas taking him to Palace in January.

Given his age I would imagine he’ll be looking for a long contract on massive money - this will be the biggest contract he’ll ever sign and if he leaves as a free agent he’ll be looking at a huge signing bonus as well. And I would think there will be some reservations about offering him such a contract.

I hope we find a way to make it work.
