Matic at the Fantasy Football: role, price and why to take him to the Fantasy Football Championship

Roma’s first transfer market hit will be fundamental for Mou but for the fantasy coaches it represents a risk. The pros and cons of the midfielder

The first shot of Mourinho 2.0 at the Giallorossi home is Nemanja Matic, a midfielder with great tactical acumen and football experience. The Serbian finds Mou for the third time in his career after his experiences with Chelsea and Manchester United.

the profile

Defensive midfielder in quantity but also in quality, he has a great predisposition to act as a filter in front of the defense. He has a good shot from outside. He will compete with Cristante for a starting place in the Giallorossi midfield. In the “Gazzetta plank” of the next Fantasy Championship he is listed as a midfielder with 26 credits. A relatively low cost if compared to other departmental colleagues such as Pellegrini (55), Zaniolo (45) and Veretout (35) which however guarantee greater prospects of bonuses.

the numbers

Born in 1988, he has great international experience: he defended the colors of Kosice, Chelsea, Vitesse, Benfica, again Chelsea and Manchester United for a total of 537 games with 26 goals and 36 assists, winning the Premier League 3 times. From a disciplinary point of view, also for the “fragility” of the role, the yellow flocks: 102 with 5 expulsions.

why take it

Matic is a player with an assured performance, potentially with a high average rating. Mourinho is unlikely to be deprived of it at the key moment. This factor can be useful, given that it can yield – by virtue of the relatively low price – a possible capital gain.

why not take it

An important football player, a little less imaginatively footballing: despite being a possible owner, he has little propensity for goals (maximum of 3 in a single season) and an excessive inclination, instead, to cards. Some malus is guaranteed.
