I hope the move boosts his confidence and wish him all the best. Interesting to see if he plays against Soton tomorrow

More regular first team opportunities? Against one of the best keepers in the league in Leno? Ok then
He may well get to play against Benfica (twice) and FA Cup games.

I note the fairly blunt wording in the article on the club website:
"He was the club's first choice for almost three and a half seasons, before being overtaken by Rob Sanchez in mid-December. "
of course Graeme "Potty" Potter had to get a dig in: “Mat has... ...played no small part for the club at this level.

Sanchez has already made several key saves since coming into the team. I think you’re mostly right Hugo, but being kind. Some of the shots we conceded under Matty were very soft. The stats are there for all to see.
You can see the difference in our back line already. Much more assured.
But I am really happy for Matty. No one wants him to be rotting in reserves, maybe a move like this will be really good for him to get back to his best.

Good luck Maty, one of my favourite signings from our Premier League era.

Why? He wants to play not teach! The clubs trying to get him a loan what more can they do?

You think so? Leno normally plays European knock out games I think doesn’t he? I know Arsenal normally play their reserve in the group stages and English cup competitions.

Sad day to be honest. Really liked the bloke and he will always be remembered as a player who gave everything. His runs to celebrate the goals were brilliant. Can see why he got dropped from the no1 spot, but don't understand why he was out of the squad.

I've just realised that Arsenal are bringing in Mathew Ryan to replace the recently-departed Matthew Ryan Macey...

Doesn’t take a genius to work out there has been a falling out that’s been well covered up does it.
In the public eye Ryan has always come across as very professional but I can’t imagine an international goalkeeper taking it very well, being dropped for an untested young keeper. Given the issues earlier in the season with Maupay perhaps he’s not the consummate professional we all think?
Fair enough. Don't follow that closely if I'm honest.

Because Jason Steele makes really good half time cups of tea for the starting keeper, or something like that.

Bit of a worry. Sanchez has been good so far but it leaves us with 3 very inexperienced keepers at this level.
Don't think Steele is Premier League standard, we don't know if Walton is and Sanchez is young so will have fluctuations in form. Would be happy to see someone experienced come in if only on loan.

Im a bit gutted. Gave everything for the team. He was found lacking a bit this season. But a huge mystery still around his falling down the pecking order.
Will always remember his Penalty save away at Stoke and loved his passion for the team and his lenghty runs up the pitch for our goals. Thought it was going to be tough to replace Stokedale but he took us to another level.
Really very concerned about Potter removing experience from our squad. We really are lacking now across all areas of the pitch.

Maty seems happy about it.

Really?
Seriously?
If Dunk left, that would be a sad day.
Ryan has been so so, very average for AGES. Glad that he has left, he was last good for us a year ago when he actually made terrific saves. Now he doesn't save or command his box.

There was the falling out, but Maupay was back in the team and squad. So why cut out Ryan, unless he called Potter a ****.
