That's true. A dick for that kind of talk in public, but also not wrong.

Wan't he responding to something Oonna said ?

[Deano]

n the buildup to this match, Matic branded Onana one of United’s *poorest-ever keepers when responding to the 29-year-old’s claim that United were better than Lyon. The tit-for-tat closed with Onana’s dig that he had won trophies at United – unlike Matic in his five years at the club – before a nightmarish evening ended with another error, this time for the hosts’ equaliser.

I think Matic said, what he said because Onana claimed that Man U have a better team on paper than Lyon.

Exactly, full context...

Matic, now playing for United's Europa League quarter-final opponents Lyon, has made the build-up to the tie unexpectedly tense.

The Serbian was responding to comments by Onana who said his side are "way better" than their French opponents.

Matic, 36, said: "If you are one of the worst keepers in Manchester United history, you need to take care.

"If David de Gea, Peter Schmeichel or Edwin van der Sar said that, I would question myself.

"But if, statistically, you are one of the worst goalkeepers in Manchester United's modern history, he needs to show that before he says."

Sure, but they're hardly comparable.

[Buzzo]

Sure, but they're hardly comparable.

Yeah if he’d kept it at club level it’s fine. Being so personal and continuing it even beyond the game is totally disrespectful.

[Sus]

well I thought it was excellent banter, and played out even better on the night with those two errors!

I'm not a fan of trash talking other teams or players, I would want our players to keep their mouths shut and do their talking on the pitch. That said it's funny when other teams players are giving it all that and can't back it up with their performances

100% agreed on wanting our players not to trash talk and just do their taking on the field

I’m just find it funny that’s it a couple of United players / ex players going at it

[Buzzo]

Onana not in the squad for Utd today.

Mission accomplished for Matic?

[spud_gun]

Not sure Matic did anything other than point out the obvious.

Onana is a poor keeper. The only real surprise is that it took this long for him to be dropped.

[Buzzo]

He went in two footed.

But agree Onana needs a move now he is in Karius territory. He needs a fresh start in a new League.

[spud_gun]

Just another headache for United

He cost them £50m and is no doubt of silly money wages

They'll be lucky to recoup a third of that now. They might be looking at yet another loan move as it'll be close to impossible to sell

More than likely they'll have to spend to replace him.....money that could and spent on the other glaring holes in their squad.

.....you just love to see them in their current predicament
