Former Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic has revealed which two players used to anger their team-mates because they were always late to training.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 35-year-old joined the Red Devils from Chelsea back in 2017 and left for Roma in 2022.<\/p>\n
He currently plies his trade in France for Rennes, but in a recent interview has looked back on his time in the Premier League, highlighting the differences between the standards at Chelsea and United.<\/p>\n
Speaking to YouTube channel YU Planet, he revealed: ‘At Chelsea, players acted professionally, they were punctual and were never late for training but at United it happened almost every day.’<\/p>\n
The Serbian continued to name the two players who would ‘always be late’ and discussed how ‘angry’ it would make the other players.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2018Among the players who would always be late were Paul Pogba and Jadon Sancho and couple of other players,’ he continued.<\/p>\n
Matic’s midfield partner Pogba left the club alongside the Serbian and returned to Juventus on a free transfer.<\/p>\n
However injuries have impacted his game time and he’s struggled to overcome the issues.<\/p>\n
Sancho, on the other hand, remains a Man United player but has fallen out with manager Erik ten Hag in recent months and is down the pecking order at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n
It appears that the winger will follow his former team-mates out the door if Ten Hag is to remain in charge, with a potential reunion with Pogba on the cards.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matic went into detail about his disciplinary committee as they collected money from those who were late to training.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018The rest of us who were always on time were angry so we decided to form a kind of an internal disciplinary committee with me serving as its president’.<\/p>\n
However, the Covid-19 outbreak meant that the money could not be used for a celebration.<\/p>\n
He continued: \u2018I put a sheet of paper up on the wall where I documented the names of individuals arriving late. During one particular season we collected around \u00a375,000 in fines.<\/p>\n
\u2018We had planned to use the money to throw a party in London but we didn\u2019t due to the Covid outbreak.\u2019<\/p>\n
