He was supposed to be a destroyer and people were calling him a "Chelsea reject" but he has put both Herrera and Pogba to shame when it comes to keeping possession and passing. Despite having only played 45 minutes in pre season and being new to the team.

comes in without a preseason and immediately stands out. Quality buy. Thought he was the best United player in the first half.

Proving a lot of us including me wrong. What a beast he's been. Hope he carries this on for the rest of the season.

Best player by a distance. Think he'll be brilliant for us behind Pogba and Herrera. Just need the others to show his level of composure.

I'll put my hands up and admit that I was wrong on this one. Quality signing.

I wonder at what point he will get tired of carrying our midfield and regret pushing for that move.

Feck the age concern he's a quality player, will be a great buy imo.

Very glad we got him.

Was meh on signing him, but he'll prove to be a bargain I think.

Excellent today. Had some very decent forward passes, covered a lot of ground, good shot.

Did very well. One of the few who wasn't afraid of showing for the ball and was pretty good with keeping it and moving it on. He started even driving forward well when we were down. Not bad for a Chelsea reject.

Looks like the perfect acquisition and does exactly what it says on the tin.

Very solid start.

Well, if that's what to be expected, then Matic will prove to be a super signing. Was fantastic tonight, against a top class Madrid side.

Excited to see what he can produce this oncoming season.

Looks good. Think he'll be a massive player for us for a couple of seasons at least.

I didn't want him at first, but he looks really good. I am glad we got him, top player!

Great tonight. If this is the level he will be at for us, I'll have to eat all my words about not wanting us to sign him. And I'll do it happily!
