Chelsea offer Benfica Nemanja Matic as makeweight in £25.5m deal for David Luiz

Chelsea have offered Benfica the midfielder Nemanja Matic as the makeweight in the €30 million (£25.5 million) deal to sign David Luiz.

read rest here...

Shame we will give them Matic. I liked him. I think he can be a quite good backup CM in the next season when he's back from loan.

I always liked his hair.

As I said before, Rajkovic would have been the better player to offer them, but I suppose they would want someone better than him right??

[Swoopz 183]

We're not losing a cancer cure here... Thank you Matic, now go on and let the big boys play

Yeah me too. Can't understand why people want him to cut his hair.

If Ivanovic moves on the right and Luiz comes in the central defence, it's gonna be weird to have a CB faster than our RB. I would in a first time try to play him as a right back, because for now Iva and Terry are a good partnership.

And I hope he gonna become accustomed to the EPL quickly.

I dont think Luiz will have any problem settling into our backline... he is a perfect replacement for our Ricky - A ball playing CB. Cole-JT-Luiz-Brana ftw !!!

Hitting a bit of a stumbling block. Benfica getting pissy about part-exchange want straight cash and are playing him in tonights game. From the MailOnline.

Knowing our luck he'll get injured tonight

Why is Luiz even playing anyway?? That's what I would like to know

Probably the Benfica President trying to make a statement along the lines of "sign him now, or we'll keep playing him"

Or a chance for him and the fans to say goodbye.

Despite our bad form, Brano has been one player who has worked hard and done well whenever he's started, so I would say they were about the same.

Yes brano is brilliant but David Luiz is a different type of defender, the sort of defender we need. I think David luiz can supplement all that power and determination we have in terry and ivo/alex !

5 days left in the transfer window. Starting to lose hope on this

[BLionheart 516]

when it comes to transfers , i wish we could be just like barca ..... it is as simple as barca has signed villa or afellay , but with chelsea you get a month and a half of negotiations where no one knows if that is gonna end with the transfer or not .

[Randall 315]

Worried about this now.
