Matic has featured just once for the Red Devils in the new season as he came off the bench when the side drew against Southampton at the St Mary’s Stadium.
And with Solskjaer preferring the midfield duo of Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay, the Serbian defensive midfielder has failed to find a place in Solskjaer’s match-day squad for the first three games.
In a press conference ahead of Serbia’s Euro 2020 qualifier against Portugal on Saturday, the former Chelsea player revealed he has a harmonious relationship with the Norwegian trainer as he struggles for game time.
"In the first two or three games he determined the team without me.
"I work as hard as I can, we respect the decision, it is mine to show him that he was wrong and to bring me back to where I belong.
"There is no problem. I told him I disagreed with him, but that he had to decide the team.
"I have been in football for a long time, I have played almost all the games for all the clubs in the last 10 years.
"In order for me to play, one had to sit on the bench and accept that fact, and so do I now. The coach must opt for the team that will fight for the title, and if he does not win, he bears the responsibility."
