He oozes class Ryan perhaps in a way David Silva does. Guile, pace and can pick a pass. I can see him drifting between the lines and finding space. I bet he'll link up nicely with Suarez.
On a side note there was a video of Banega up here last year and Mata looked great it in. I wonder can that be traced back. I remember people in the thread claiming from watchig the vid we should be after Mata instead.
Think (U-21)Spain are playing tomorrow night. Perhaps try catch some of that.

Thanks Daveed.
I heart Silva so this pleases me.

Silva is a good comparison, Mata seems to be more suited to play "in the hole" that is behind the striker than on the wing.
Here's a little Mata special from the world cup:

Seen that before, tremendous.
We do that every night at training, I like that international rules apply; you get megged and you're in for 2 turns - thems the rules.
There's a Danish lad playing for us right now (that khl knows) who absolutely owns that circle and pulls out similar tricks to that Mata one.
