How do you pronounce his names?

Just read that we have signed Malen - hopefully he will be brilliant, however the folk who sit around me, will give him 10 minutes and then decide that he is shit as soon as he either gives the ball away or does not track back!Best of luck Donyell, hope that you enjoy your time at the best football club in the world!!
Am I right in assuming he and Maatsen will have been together at Dortmund for the second half of last season? I wonder if he was asked his opinion. I know professionals have to move and settle quickly, but I guess having a fellow countryman and former teammate at Bodymoor might make that process a bit easier?
Malen also said in his interview on the OS that they had been messaging during negotiations and he was impressed by what Maatsen said about the club.
Apparently his most succesful area of the pitch is playing up top, I imagine in the numer 10. Obviously though if we are moving Philogene on as part of this he will be expected to provide depth on the right.

Seems like a quiet guy.
