Ole: Matic in the form of his life
The Reds ran out 3-0 winners on our return to Old Trafford and January transfer window buy Fernandes and Pogba, who has been recovering from injury since the Portuguese’s arrival, was the dream ticket Reds’ fans were desperate to see as they came together for the first time in the engine room.
But Matic, who turns 32 in August, was key in the Reds’ midfield triangle and has featured strongly in 2020.
“Nemanja is playing some of his best football. He’s had a good pre-season for the first time in many, many years and today he was dictating the game and his experience is vital for us,”
said Ole in his post-match press conference.
“I’m very, very happy that we’re seeing the best of Nemanja and he’ll be important for us and then of course it’s down to performances and if Nemanja wants to stay but at the moment he’s in great form.”
Matic joined United from Chelsea in 2017 and his deal with the club was extended until 2021 in March.
