Matt is one of the best and most well respected players in Southampton’s history. He turned down a number of money rich moves in order to see his team through the tough times. His loyalty to Southampton was noted by fans who nick named him “Le God.”
In 1990 Matt won the PFA Young Players award, for his outstanding performances and ability. An unfortunate case of repeated injuries meant that his career came to an early finish. Matt is now a panellist on Sky Soccer Saturday.
