He was really sad. I was also sad because it’s not something nice and it’s something that I did only twice in my career. “But the next day he comes to me and he says, ‘I’m not happy, but it’s my fault.I’m not happy with what you did to me, but it’s my fault, because the way I was playing I can understand the change. So let’s keep going’.“We didn’t keep going for a long time because a few weeks later I was sacked.  “But again he was one of ‘my guys’, was one of the guys that we kept close during these years even not working together. So I know that the big man is there, even with more maturity.” Matic has settled quickly into the United fold, with the 29-year-old making a seamless transition from Stamford Bridge to Old Trafford – helping the Red Devils to make an unbeaten start to the 2017-18 campaign. Mourinho was clearly expecting as much from the two-time Premier League winner, with his qualities allowing others – such as Paul Pogba – to flourish.</blockquote>
