Premier League 2017/18: Best summer signings XI

Manchester City v Liverpool - UEFA Champions League Quarter Final Second Leg
The bargain of the decade?

Nemanja Matic - Manchester United (Defensive Midfield)

Manchester United v West Ham United - Premier League
How did Chelsea let him go?

Signed from: Chelsea

Price Paid: £40.23 million

The Serbian midfielder goes about with his business smartly and effectively, though he does have a tendency to start seasons well and fade off, as it is looking like he might be doing it this term like he did at Chelsea last season.

How Chelsea sold this man to a direct rival is beyond comprehension. Matic has been the pivot around which this United side is functioning. He stays back screening his defence allowing Pogba to run free and create damage how he best can.

He has scored one screamer against Crystal Palace while also providing an assist for his teammate.
