All the talks about United have been either on Pogba ranting with Mourinho’s methodology or Martial’s contentious future with United. Pogba, Martial and Mourinho have been all over the news with much talks pivoted towards them. Or on Alexis Sanchez who has been unable to whistle the ball through the keeper.
Juan Mata has not been in the business this season and will be wanting to change his club expecting more game time.
Among others, Mata is ranked pretty highly but is not into news for mouthing opinions. He surely is ranked as a starter but one could only wonder why does he spend more time on the bench.
Nowadays, seldom do we see Mata in out television screens. If we hear about him it will be through his Monday posts on official site of United or via his charitable works. The Spaniard who came as a record transfer, five years back is no longer seen in starting XI of Mourinho.
The Spaniard continues to warm the bench under Mourinho. With a plenty of combinations available, Mourinho prefers Mata more as a substitute midfielder. Fans are able to enjoy his sight mostly after the first half. Last match too, the Spaniard was seen in the 63rd minute after he replaced Sanchez.
Mata will become a free transfer as it is the final year of his contract. Speculations are high, inclining towards his former club Valencia who are keen to take him back.
Mata who has the ability to keep the rivals on tenterhooks with his through balls and accurate touches, will soon be offloaded by Red Devils.
