Nemanja Matic picked up where he left off against Huddersfield and was brilliant in the middle of the park. He is one of the six outfield players who have started every game under Solskjaer so far.

For the people who were worried whether a Mourinho favorite like Matic would be a part of Solskjaer's plans, the recent games had been a reality check.

Matic had not just made Solskjaer's team, he has played some of his best football under his new manager. Against Bournemouth, the Serbian was brilliant, showing his passing abilities as well as nipping the opposition attacks in the bud.

Some of the balls played forward by Matic were so good on the night. The Serbian has adjusted well to Solskjaer's attacking tactics while also staying true to his defensive traits and responsibilities.
