Matt made his debut along with Sterry in the drug-filled Amsterdam trip of 2000, and went over 130 games before scoring his first goal, finally breaking that duck at West Ham in 2008. Since then he’s been relatively prolific, which helped him reclaim his righful place as the most improved player in 2009, adding to triumphs in 2004 & 05. Matt also accepted the poisoned chalice of organising the club’s fixtures in 2009/10, maintaining the club’s proud run of completing 20 league fixtures in his first two seasons. If we can just stop him wearing his big ginger sweater into the showers after playing, we’d be onto a right winner.
