Manchester United’s fans couldn’t help but become frustrated with Nemanja Matic after his lackluster display vs West Ham.
The experienced Serbian was just as guilty as anyone else of having a poor performance in what was a disappointing 1-1 draw.
Paul Pogba gave away a penalty that Michail Antonio tucked away comfortable before Mason Greenwood netted the equaliser.
Supporters were hoping for all three points in their quest for a top-four finish but unfortunately, they were let down by the players.
Matic was guilty of playing at too slow a tempo when what was needed vs West Ham is crisp passing and movement.
Matic awful today! He's slowed the game down so much averaging about five touches every time he gets it. How that's not been addressed is schocking

Matic got a new contract and went missing. He did an Ozil on us sigh.

Hopefully Ole saw Rice embarrass Matic & decides to make the move. Whatever it costs, pay it.

Matic’s performances recently might make us buy the midfielder we’ve obviously need tbf. Silver linings

One that doesn’t take 500 touches.
Overused Matic is a criminal https://t.co/1O6xbmTHMG

We have Matic that contract too early. That’s all we know, reactionary contract extensions

West Ham were determined to disrupt Manchester United’s desire to play out from the back and that only exposed Matic even more.
It would be unfair to focus just on him but in a young side, his experience in this type of fixture was badly needed.
Nonetheless, United can still gain qualification for the Champions League by drawing with Leicester City in the final match of the season.
If there was ever a time for Matic and co to make amends, it would be for that crucial, season-defining fixture and they will have to put in a much-improved performance if they want to achieve their goals.
18-year-old Mason Greenwood has been setting the world on fire for Manchester United this season. But how much do you know about other teenage stars that have played for the Red Devils over the years? Take our quiz below to find out.
