Nemanja Matic has said that even though Jose Mourinho is not always an easy guy and can be very demanding, the Manchester United boss is the best he has worked with.
He said “Mourinho is a brand, and the best coach I’ve ever worked with.
“Sometimes it isn’t easy to work with him, because he always demands more. Even when you play the best match in your career, he considers that you can play better in the next match.
“I cooperated excellently with him at Chelsea, and the fact that Mourinho is the coach at Manchester was the decisive factor in choosing my new environment.
“Privately he’s completely different from the way he is perceived by the general public. This is a man who possesses all human virtues.
“He’s not at all cold or conceited, as he is presented in the media.”
He added: “Mourinho has created an excellent group of players with huge potential, and everything is there for us to achieve good results.
“I don’t want to talk about the goals of the club, but when I mention Manchester United I think the ambitions are clear to everyone.”
He said: “The fact that I’m playing for United is the pinnacle of my career and of everything I’ve achieved in football.
“I really like it in Manchester, and the family has got used to the city. I needed very little to make me happy in my new environment — just to be together with my wife Aleksandra, my six-year-old son Filip and three-year-old daughter Tea.
“The children have a good school in Manchester, and I’m particularly glad that my son started football training. He has a place reserved in United’s junior ranks.”
