I'm hearing welcome to Manchester Nemanja Matić

Wouldn't be upset, but don't see a midfield three of him, Herrera & Pogba working especially well if I'm honest.

Add Fabinho & we'd be there.

For me United need a brain in midfield. Someone to run a game. Tough to come by though.

Looks that way. Don't want Matic at all tbh. Find him very one paced. He's a good player but he's not what we need.

What a debut that was

He's the complete midfielder

not going to look back but did anyone say anything like he's a beast and chelsea would be mad to sell him to us?

if they did they were spot on

Looks the real deal tbf.

There's a hell of a lot more to his game than I gave him credit for nqat.

Love it when these threads are bumped and I've not made a tit of myself.

Couldn't have played better or made more of difference in the games I've seen him in. Early days but he brings balance, graft and skills.

Could end up being mou's best signing.

Switchers is such a re-quote £#%&!ing snide . Might have to take old rusty %@#$&!s to the cleaners this year tbh...

I have said on other threads he's more mobile than I gave him credit for. At least I identified that he's a good player as well.

Watch your back switchers...

I know mate; just pissing about.

Someone called him Mehtic, cant recall who tho...

Didn't want him, thought he was in decline but he has been extremely impressive in this start to his Utd career. Will be delighted to be proven wrong. Same with Lukaku.

Big man is Tibs.

Happy to admit when he's wrong and doesn't allow his preconceptions to cloud his judgement.

Could other forumistas take a leaf out of his book ?

Not really for me to say.

there was someone on here posting last summer that we should be all over signing him. not for me to be looking back though to see who it was.

Well I was judging him from his Chelsea days but to be fair he's handled the step-up excellently. I'm happy to be wrong.
