Nemanja Matic wants the manager to receive financial backing
Manchester United have finished the the 2017-2018 season trophyless, after being the closest challengers to Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City in the Premier League. They were runners up again as they lost to Chelsea in the FA Cup final on Saturday.
The Premier League giants are expected to invest heavily in the summer to bolster their squad for the next season. The club will also look to sell some players in order to accommodate new players.
United’s midfielder Nemanja Matic has urged the club to back Jose Mourinho in the summer transfer window so he can add few more good players to the team. He believes that they can compete for major honours next season with high quality additions.
Matic joined the Red Devils from Chelsea last summer and was reunited with Mourinho, previously working with him when he was Blue’s manager. The Serbian has been pivotal and one of the best players of the team this season.
“I think with a few more good players in the squad we can fight for the title, of course, and I’m sure we will do it,” said the Serbia international.
On United’s performance against his former club at Wembley, Matic added: “I don’t know what we did wrong but we had one mistake when we conceded the goal, but I think that we played good football for 90 minutes.
“I think that we deserved more but this is football, one mistake and sometimes you can lose the game and this is what has happened to us.
“I’m not disappointed, we tried, obviously we tried but we played against a very good squad, the defense is very organised, it’s not easy to create the chances. We had some that we didn’t use. To win the game you have to score goals but as I said I think we deserve more.”
