When I see your faces at Old Trafford, applauding, supporting and cheering us on after waiting for ages to say goodbye to us, I understand how big this sport is… and how big this club is. “Your support has been admirable, especially in those moments. You all deserve a lot more than what you’re getting. That is the reality.” Mata may not be back for more in 2019-20 as no extension to his expiring contract has been agreed as yet.</blockquote>
