Man U coach, Jose Mourinho has hinted at problems within the camp of his former club, Chelsea, following the club's decision to sell
Nemanja Matic to Man U for 40 million pounds this summer.
It was reported that Chelsea coach, Antonio Conte, didn't want the club to sell Matic and wants to leave the club after his season.
Matic, has slotted in well to Man U's style of play and was the man of the match in the club's 4-0 win over West Ham on Sunday,orchestring te midfield and shoring up the defence and Mourinho remains at a loss of words as to why he was ever sold by Chelsea to a title rival.
"[It] depends on what was happening behind [closed] doors," he said.
"And we don't know. The only thing we know, of course with Chelsea money, I brought him to Stamford Bridge because I thought he was a player with special qualities.
"And since I left I always thought he could be a perfect player for us. But I didn't disturb him. I didn't disturb Chelsea. I never thought it was possible unless something special was happening.
"And it looked like something was happening. Because his agent told me 'you can have him, you just have to pay'.
"So we have him, and we are very happy with that.
"Because he's a player that our team needs and now with these kind of qualities we have Nemanja and Michael Carrick. Michael in spite of his age has a role to play. And I'm happy with these kind of stability players."
