I'd like to hear Rooney speak some spanish.
I'm really glad Herrera made the move. All the controversy regarding the transfer made me think we had lost out on him but here we are.

Yup, and what an asset he's been. Fought his way back into the first team and is a genuinely nice guy. I'm really looking forward to see how he progresses from that point on

Ander Herrera impresses former Manchester United captain Bryan Robson
Bryan Robson has pinpointed one of Ander Herrera's many qualities that have made an impression on him during the Spaniard's debut season at Manchester United.
While his countryman Juan Mata has been winning the recent plaudits, including March's Player of the Month award, Herrera has also been in excellent form and set up Mata's first goal against Liverpool with an inch-perfect pass.
The 25-year-old acquisition from Athletic Club has shown signs of being able to provide the sort of all-action performances that were a hallmark of Robson's feted career at Old Trafford. Although perhaps not quite the box-to-box midfield marauder that the former United captain was in his heyday, Herrera plays at a high tempo and always makes himself available to receive possession.
"Ander started off the season well and he’s got a lot of energy," Robson told ManUtd.com. "He is always on the move, trying to close people down really quickly. He has got a lot of qualities really, it’s just getting them out of him on a consistent basis. But he has got that in his locker, maybe it’s just taken him and a few of the new signings time to adapt to the Premier League.
"He is quite good defensively and, when I watch him, I can see he has a lot of energy and he does like to get involved. What I like about him is that, when people are on the ball, he is always on the move to try and receive the pass."

7 goals in all competitions from him now, the most he's ever scored in a season. Not bad for a player underused for big parts of the season.

Simply irreplaceable part of central midfield, brings so much with his clever movements, linking and an eye for a pass. He's now added goals too to his already impressive games, we wouldn't be where we are now without his contribution. MOTM vs Villa.

Simply irreplaceable part of central midfield Indeed. In my books, Carrick's and Herrera's positions are sealed as first choice. This summer should see another face complete that trio in CM imo. As much as everyone should recognise how influential Fellaini has been (and will remain), or how well Blind is developing, I believe they're our "second choice" in CM. |

Van Gaal: I kissed Herrera at half-time"He has a very good kicking technique and he should be more composed. "I said to him 'you have to control the ball before you shoot'. "I said that to him again in yesterday's training session, and then I kissed him at half-time because he had controlled the ball for the first time in his life and then he shot! "But then I came to him after the second-half and he said 'without control I can do it also!'" www.goal.com/en-za/news/4635/england/2015/04/05/10479832/van-gaal-i-kissed-herrera-at-half-time

What a fantastic signing Herrera has turned out to be. I was always happy when we signed him, however I wasn't sure how'd he get on. He's shown recently that he can get on just fine, he's been fantastic. Not to mention the fact that it's absolutely impossible to hate the lad.

Tidy finishing. More often than not his goals look like clever taps-in because he has such a bright positioning. I never doubted Herrera's quality, and I am glad LVG is starting to trust him and giving him the role he deserves. We're a better side with Herrera on the pitch, there is no doubt about that.
