Man Utd urged to offer Matic clean slate as Schmeichel rejects criticism of ‘slow’ Serb

The legendary former Red Devils goalkeeper would like to see a proven performer returned to a holding midfield post if he is now back to full fitness

Nemanja Matic should be offered a clean slate by Manchester United, says Peter Schmeichel, with a club legend claiming the Serb could have an important role to play despite accusations of “being slow”.

A two-time Premier League title winner has taken in five appearances for the Red Devils this season.

Matic has seen just 160 minutes of Premier League football, with his last top-flight outing coming against West Ham on September 22.
