Must start vs PSG: The Man United star who topped stunning statistic vs Southampton

Manchester United star Nemanja Matic has perhaps not received as much praise as he should have for his role in the superb victory over Southampton.

The experienced Serbian was thrown back into the starting XI tasked with protecting his defence in a 4-4-2 diamond formation.

United found themselves 2-0 down at the break after some questionable defensive errors but roared back in the second half to complete a remarkable 3-2 comeback victory inspired by Edinson Cavani.

The talented Uruguayan deservedly made all the headlines but Matic played a crucial role in ensuring the three points too.

The former Chelsea man has been overlooked a little with Fred and Scott McTominay often chosen ahead of him but perhaps Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will reconsider altering his plans for future fixtures.

It’s remarkably encouraging to see him top the charts in these defensive aspects of the game, particularly as he was the sole defensive-midfielder in the side and it was essentially his main task.

However, what’s arguably the most stunning of the stats is the sheer amount of recoveries he’s made as 15 is a ridiculously high number.

There will be question marks over Matic and the squad’s first-half performance but there’s no doubt he, as well as his teammates, came out firing in the second-half.

United have had some world class goalkeepers over the years and some entertaining ones too. Take our quiz below to find out how much you know about United’s number 1’s, past and present.
