5 things Manchester United must do to get all three points against Tottenham Hotspur

#2 Get Matic in heart of midfield

Nemanja Matic is back in training after undergoing a surgery

Matic is one of the senior players who missed most of the preseason due to the World Cup, and later due to injury. His absence was severely felt when Fred and Pereira struggled to do their defensive duties.

Matic has been training well for a week, and Jose Mourinho will be desperate to start him against Spurs. The Serbian is Jose’s chosen warrior, and one of the most reliable players at the club. His defensive and ball retaining abilities will be crucial while facing the likes of Eriksen and Dele Alli.
