  • A video has popped online that shows Nemanja Matic copying Jose Mourinho's reaction after he was being mocked by Arsenal fans
  • The Manchester United midfielder was filmed biting back at Arsenal fans during his side's 3-1 defeat to Arsenal
  • The veteran Serb was raging and made it clear to the Gunners fans that he has three Premier League medals

Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic got into exchanges with Arsenal fans during his side's 3-1 defeat at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

Nuno Tavares, and Bukayo Saka handed the hosts a deserved lead in the opening exchanges of the first half before Ronaldo got his name on the scoresheet in the 34th minute.

Granit Xhaka scored a late screamer to propel the Gunners to a well-deserved victory over Ralf Rangnick's side.

Matic, who provided an assist to Ronaldo's 100th Premier League was substituted in the 77th minute by Marcus Rashford.

The former Chelsea midfielder exchanged banter with a section of Arsenal fans while he took he seat in the dugout.

The veteran Serb seemed to be getting stick from the Gunners fans so he put up three fingers and said:

"Three titles for me. You zero!"

He's actually won two Premier League titles but he may have included his league title during his time at Benfica as well when he made the gesture.

Jose Mourinho famously said in a press conference during his time at United: "I won more Premierships alone than the other 19 managers together. Three for me and two for them. Respect, respect, respect man."

Maybe it was Matic's ode to his former boss who he won his two Premier League titles with.

Ralf Rangnick Reveals Why Cristiano Ronaldo Did Not Take Man United Penalty vs Arsenal

Sports Brief earlier reported that Man United interim boss Ralf Rangnick has opened up about his side's penalty drama during their trip to Arsenal on Saturday, April 23.

Fresh from their 4-0 mauling by Liverpool, United were out for redemption against the Gunners, who beat all odds to hammer rivals, Chelsea, 3-1 in their previous outing.

However, Rangnick's charges fell short of a spirited Arsenal side who condemned United to yet another humiliating loss.
