Since the departure of Jose Mourinho, Nemanja Matic has found himself out of the Old Trafford spotlight. The midfielder has played just 30 times across all competitions since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took charge back in December 2018, and this season has seen him feature on only 12 occasions.

Amidst speculation linking him with a potential move away from the club, Matic was given another chance to shine against Norwich on Saturday afternoon.

After seeing his display, United fans took to Twitter to voice their thoughts on the holding midfielder.

Some fans discussed Matic's importance to the side in relation to United's current midfield options, with a couple claiming that he is a far better footballer than Scott McTominay.

A few fans of the Manchester side admitted that if Matic continues to perform like he did against Norwich, then they would be in favour of seeing him stay.

As reports continue to circulate over his long-term future at the club, Matic's impressive performance against Norwich certainly delivered a reminder that he may still have a bit to offer. Of course, Saturday afternoon's display should be taken with a pinch of salt considering the opponents were rooted bottom to the Premier League table, but the midfielder certainly took advantage of his chance to shine.

Meanwhile, Manchester United have fans reacted to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's update on the club's transfer plans.
