Football Matic!

2016/17
Chelsea (with Matic) 1st
United (without Matic) 6th

2017/18
Chelsea (without Matic) probably 5th
United (with Matic) probably 2nd

For me, the best Nemanja we've had since Vidic. Folk saying he's been shit since the start of the season. There's some £#%&!ing numpties around, nqat.

Proper midfielder and thank £#%&! we've had him this year to have someone finally step into Carrick's golden slippers.

Impressed with the in-depth analysis of Chelsea and united with and without him. Didn’t have you down as a stat man but those are pure stats It’s also 110% fact and pure science to boot. Hawkings-esque.

Been our best signing under the Mou.

He's everything you'd want in a proper holding midfielder (as opposed to a ratting little shit like most teams like to have).

He's been overused, and probably overworked, this season so needs back up but he's a proper big game player.

He was poor on Saturday in the first half but came into his own when we needed leaders in the second. He also was never shy about looking to get hold of the ball and build, even when we were under pressure. Just a shame we didn't get him 3 years ago really.

like anyone. good player, but needs dynamism and discipline next to him. ridiculous to expect him to patrol a third of the pitch on his own. three matics would be awesome.

Good to see the stats getting some props. For me this rough patch has been overplayed. More like everyone else had been having rough patches and he's been left to do everything himself. Yes there were some games but for the vast majority of the season he's been top drawer

Been absolute solid since he joined.....

No idea why he has been getting grief, does a job that not a lot of modern footballers would like to be seen doing...

Minimal social media, solid family guy....

Breaks up so much and offers a splitting pass most games...

A great signing

I like that’s he’s constantly involved, never shies away from the first minute until the last and like all our great players, just does the simple stuff very simply. He’ll be even better when he’s got a solid back four behind him, he must sigh every time he hears Smalling’s name called out.

Drives a red mini
That aside, he’s pretty solid and consistent.
