Former Blues manager says Nemanja Matic is crucial to their success
Roberto di Matteo has spoken of his admiration for the midfielder, who scored the only goal against Sporting on Tuesday as the West Londoners secured their first Champions League win of the season.
Di Matteo famously guided the side to victory in this tournament in 2012 and believes Matic will be hugely important if they are to do it again.
“He dictates the time of the team, he shields the back four very well and he has great distribution with his left foot. He has good vision as well. He’s matured very well as a player,” the Italian told Sky Sports.
