Matic

I wouldn't mind seeing a middle 3 of Ramires/Matic/Lampard in a return to 2005 tactics, with Matic as Makelele, Ramires as Thiago and Lampard as himself. Gives Lamps free reign to attack without having to track back as much. The only issue is that one of the AM trio would have to be dropped but its nice to have the options.

Would you not rather have Oscar? I mean I love Lamps, but Oscar is the man for that position now

Could even have Mata in there in place of Lampard. Sure he'll be better off without as much defensive responsibilities.

Aside from the financial aspect, no poster here seems to have a negative word to say about this signing - prayers answered with this one? I'm very happy about it too, Rambo needs licence and a calm figure next to him - Matic can bring the best out of him.

 
Dont mean to be a party popper, but after the initial high, im wary of this signing and im not taking his good performances in portugal as be all and end all.

he might just turn out to be another fellaini.

Im positive that we are a better time with him in the side, but i remain on the fence whether hes good enough to be a clear starter.

It seems a lot of chelsea fans are expecting a lot from him, and i still feel theres a chance this signing may end up a bit underwhelming

I'm pretty pleased about the Matic signing, now we can play a good defensive midfielder in that position rather than playing luiz out of position.

Yes I will remain on the fence as I have never really seen him play bar against us and a few other European games.

However, I really hope he can be top draw!

 
i have seen nothing of matic at all since he left us. i thought he had promise as a young player, but when we sold him i assumed that would be that. Having not seen him in the last few years, i have no idea how well he could fit into/contribute to our team. Having said all that, i trust Mourinho, and Matic certainly seemed his first choice target, so i will happily throw my support behind and assume this signing will improve our squad

 
Matic showed a lot of promise when he was younger, hope we can bring out the best in him. looking forward to seeing him back with the team.

 
as some have mentioned, i believe that his signing will allow others more attacking time and playing time.
