Adam Johnson found the opening goal in the second half, but Giovinco converted the important penalty kick to tie the match.

Unlucky. Matteo was unlucky not to score any goals today in a packed defensive affair by both sides. He struck the bar in the first half, then was one-on-one with the keeper, but was tackled viciously from behind. The foul in the box resulted in the tying goal by Giovinco. January is nearing it's transfer window time...will we see a move?

Ohh suspense! The only move I can see you making is maybe going up the ladder in the EPL. But who knows

Re: Something in the Making: Lam Matteo (PES 2009)


Easy. Never a word associated with Chelsea, but Matteo played like the Blues defenders didn't exist. His goal was a thing of beauty - just a typical Matteo goal. Next week is Sunderland, then Tottenham - after that...January time. There are some teams interested on moving this man up the market...believe me.

Nice goal

Lam Matteo has struck gold this year with 20 goals near the midpoint, this time scoring two goals in the victory against Sunderland.

Thankful. If it wasn't for the brilliant play by Kamara, Matteo would not have scored any goals today. It is the unselfish play like that which has guided Matteo to the top of the scoring charts in the Premier League this year (17 in league, 20 for all competitions).

Re: Something in the Making: Lam Matteo (PES 2009)

More great goals. Looks like Matteo is on a bit of a hot streak. any news on the international front?

[Matt10]

Re: Something in the Making: Lam Matteo (PES 2009)

Doesn't look like any news on the international side - but you never know. I have no idea when they start looking exactly either. We will have to wait and see.

I hope you stick with Fulham but you might get some crazy offers from other clubs in the transfer window.

You know me man, I'm a realist. Fulham seems to be the smart decision, but if a big club or two show interest - we'll just have to see.

Pretty cool that BAL still impresses me during transfer time. Love it.

TRANSFER NEWS HOURLY - Lam Matteo

It's that time again, could Lam Matteo's time at Fulham (1250 P) come to close? Where would he go next. We document the 4 weeks of the January transfer window.

• Negotiations - week 1 - Sunderland ofering 1250 P, Matteo is going to sit and wait for more teams to trickle in for now. -- REJECTED
  

• Negotiations - week 2 - Keeping up with the Premiership theme, Matteo receives offers from Hull City (1440 P), Sunderland (1330 P) and Portsmouth (1380 P), the striker doesn't see any need for a big change here. -- REJECTED.
  

• Negotiations - week 3 - Sunderland withdraw their offer, as does Hul City. The only team remaining is Portsmouth (1330 P) - Matteo, once more, says no. -- REJECTED
  

• Negotiations - week 4 - Once again, Portsmouth emerge, this time offering a staggering 1490 P, however Matteo says no for the last time. In addition to Portsmouth, Blackburn offer a pathetic 1380 P. -- REJECTED
  

Sadly, it was a dissapointing transfer window that came and gone. Matteo has stated he did not feel a move away from the Cottage was necessary. "There were no teams that struck me. I feel like there is still more out there. We (Fulham) are in a good spot right now, if we can keep our form - we could win the premiership."

Re: Something in the Making: Lam Matteo (PES 2009)

Well Fullham is doing better, but I don't know about winning the primereship...Good luck!

As a side question..when you play internationally can you play in any of the major tournaments? I'm thinking about getting PES because it's BAL interests me more than Fifa's BAP.

Agbonlahor was the recepient of two Lam Matteo assists, then Matteo found himself on the scoring sheet.

Phew. It's odd that Matteo still received a low rating considering he had two assists and a goal. It is a relief, however, that he managed to find a goal out of nothing - so good to see he is still true to form since the transfer window elapsed.

Re: Something in the Making: Lam Matteo (PES 2009)

Just read the transfer story. I guess Matteo hasn't impressed any of the big clubs yet.

Where is Fulham in the standings?

I guess not, despite being tied for first in goal scoring. Geeez.

Standings - we are in 7th, stupid Man Yooo are in first with like 43 points. If I get an offer from them, I'd reject just for spite.
