7 Reasons Why Man Utd Will Run Away With The Premier League Title This Season

2. The Addition Of Nemanja Matic

The signing of Nemanja Matic this summer could well turn out to be the pivotal transfer out of all the players who made moves during the summer transfer window.

With Chelsea manager Antonio Conte letting one of his star men from last season go, he opened up a window of opportunity that United manager Jose Mourinho was simply not going to miss.

His addition has opened up the pitch for club record signing Paul Pogba to further influence games, giving the young French midfielder license to roam while Matic can sit in and protect the back four like he had done so effectively for Chelsea. This is evidenced already this season after only four games, with Pogba notching up two goals and three assists already.

While not the most glamorous signing, Matic not being the sort of player who is going to take all the plaudits and stand in the limelight, this transfer could turn out to be the deciding factor when it comes to winning the Premier League title come May.
