I don't know if this has already been posted, but this article in Wales Online was interesting from Vitor - it's clear the fans are responding to his style :

Vitor Matos has thanked the Jack Army for roaring his side over the line against Bristol City on Saturday.

The home fans showed their support for their side as the contest approached its conclusion, and Matos believes the contributions of the Jack Army were huge in seeing his side over the line.

"I think the fans today were unbelievable," Matos said.

"The last 15 minutes they played the game with us. They tackled the Bristol players with us. They created the counters with us and when you have that the players feel it

They feel they can compete against anyone and when you create that, the feeling in the stadium is outstanding."

We would probably have to take somewhere between 25 and 30 points from the last 39 on offer to have a shout at the playoffs. Matos isn't far off 2 points per game but there is a difference between getting performances when there is no pressure to get points and when the carrot of the playoffs is on the line.

Regardless of if we make it or not this season Matos has been spectacular and our best bit of business in the summer might be keeping him.
 
With wingers we often get fixated on whether they can beat a man. Actually you don't need to beat anyone - you just need a half yard and quality in the delivery.
Imagine if we had a right footed Tymon? His delivery is exceptional, and if we had anything even 10% as good on the right we would be scoring more than 39 goals this season.
We might have one in Galbraith?
He has a hell of a right foot on him and I thought he would be doing what Tymon does on the other side but for some reason he doesn’t?
