Nemanja Matic

[manpe 10,855]

Am.....all of those which is why I'm very happy about this transfer Very rarely balanced midfielder! Most importantly, he works very very very hard and has a very calm, strong and stable personality. I believe his plan was always to shine at Benfica and return here

Great stamina, strong, good tackling, very good break up and counter attack play, never give up attitiude...just a player we need, just a player Mou likes, and a player at the mere start of his best career

AW CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM PLAY!!!

Does he have any skill or trait he's particularly known for or is he just an all-rounder who's good at everything but exceptional at nothing?

He looked like Ballack when he was with us before .. He had class just like the Kaiser ,,,pity we have missed 3 years of him ... but like Jose he is HOME

Does anyone have a video of the Chelsea TV interview with him? They are always fun to watch.

I think and hope that he will finally fill that Ballack-shaped gap in our midfield that has been there since 2010.

Exactly this. Reminds me so much of Ballack with his style

rambo-esque but with better reading of the game and definitely better range of passing.

So basically coupled with Rambo we'd be witnessing a bukkake? Anyways, I hope in the end he justifies the hype.

He's not Rambo-esque because he doesn't have his pace IMO, which is a big part of his game.

hahahaha... that's one way of putting it.

Never realised until now that he completed that many passes and also made the most tackles in our match against them last season. Impressive

[YouNameIt 1,511]

Will he be our Mikel-replacement or what?

true that. What I had essentially meant was workrate cos that I feel is rambo's USP. Anyways like shan0x put it, a very complete player.

[OneMoSalah 8,611]

What a size he is, 6 ft fucking 4. Anyway hope he can potentially get a start vs United and show Moyes what he's missed out on.

Welcome back Matic!! Can't wait to see what you do here this time!

"If you love something, set it free... if it comes back, it's yours"

[Barbara 15,149]

Kind of player we have lacked since Ballack. Great to have him back, and can't wait to see him in the starting 11

Just wrote a whole scout based exactly on that, the player we've lacked since Ballack. It feels like that imo

[robsblubot 3,205]

So, i guess we are going to stop complaining about the CM position now?!

We've now got the Brazilian Kenyan and the Giant Serbian.
