While announced on departure, Nemanja Matic should finally end the season at Manchester United. Ralf Rangnick, the manager of the Red Devils, is counting on him and he shows it by lining up often as a starter.
Thursday night, during the opposition against Burnley, the Serbian played for the 3rd time in a row and was able to honor his 8th start of the season. He was accredited with a good performance and his coach was the first to congratulate himself on the final whistle.
Rangnick distributes the right points
“Having Nemanja in the team, as a quarterback player, who can calm things down and play passes from this position is perfect,” said Ole’s successor Gunnar Solskjaer.
Rangnick is also happy with the bond that the former Chelsea player displays with his midfielder, Scott McTominay. “It was important to have each player in their best possible position and that’s why we decided to play Jadon [Sancho] from the left and Mason [Greenwood] from the right and two forwards up front. We decided to play with the two collecting midfielders like we did. Besides Nemanja, we had Scotty’s energy on the pitch and she’s contagious. It was a very good performance from Scotty today. He [McTominay] played in a 4-4-2 defensively and a 4-2-4 offensively. Therefore, it was important that he and Nemanja were the two ‘sixes’ playing together. “
Matic still has a year and a half contract with MU. Currently, he is playing his 5th club season. Even if he plays less and less often, the Serb is in no rush to leave.
