Can you Chelsea fans give me a run down on this kid? What will he bring to Benfica and is he good enough to play for my club? Give me the details por favor smile.gif

EskWeston will probably correct me here (as will people who have watched him at Vitesse), but what I have seen of Matic shows him to be a very physical player; he is not afraid of making challenges. He is quite creative and has the potential to be a great playmaker, but he can be a little lazy at times and can 'go out' of games. But he is still a top youngster.

Huge midfielder (1.94) with great technique and a classy first touch. Quite strong and can pick out a pass, a bit slow on the ball and with decision making. All in all he is classy but slow. Being described as the next Ballack probably had something to do with both ;)

Matic didn't look impressive at all in the summer games although to be fair not many players did and pre-season friendlies aren't much to judge on.

He just looked too gangly and slow footed to ever make the grade. A capable passer but sadly in my opinion he just wasn't good enough.

Does anybody know how he's been getting on in Holland?
