BELGRADE (Reuters) - Manchester United are well placed to challenge for the Premier League and Champions League titles amid strong competition on both fronts, the club's Serbia midfielder Nemanja Matic told Reuters on Monday. We’ve made a pretty good start in the Premier League but it’s a long season and we will see how it goes." "We were outplayed but that was a one-off while the Champions League is a competition where you face different rivals in every round." Matic earned instant praise from Mourinho after the match in Skopje, having previously worked with the Portuguese manager at Chelsea. United were drawn with Benfica, Basel and CSKA Moscow in the Champions League group stage.
