Some of his passes today were wankworthy. Class today all around. What a signing he's turned out to be... And to think so many on here were doubting him and comparing him to Kagawa

Exactly the type of player our post-Scholes midfield has been screaming out for. Love him.
Carrick face looks like a serial killer holding his victim
There's not another CM I'd prefer right now.
Great player,so glad we bought him.Still boggles the mind how he couldn't get a game for a run of 10 games around Christmas.Would easily have hit double figures in goals otherwise.
Love him
Or a lustful older man....Carrick face looks like a serial killer holding his victim
...
7 goals and 5 assists in 23 games, a lot of them subs.
Today :
110 touches of the ball.
96 % pass completion.
2 shots, 2 goals.
2 tackles.
MOTM.
110 touches that's a lot, he is turning into a real playmaker.
Andonio Materrera is such a good 3 man combo. If Valencia could cross, by God we'd be killing teams.
He's what I thought Cleverley would be for us. Just brilliant, my favorite player at the moment.
Villa clearly tried to nullify Fellaini by sticking an extra man on him. The result? Herrera had a little bit extra room and used it immaculately.
He's such a great all round player. With our 4 midfielders I really don't see a need for another one.

What is especially important is that he didn't start dropping easy balls at the end of the game when we were stressed and shaky, he improved his passing percentage in that time.
Today Ander provided more reasons to justify why I went ape when Moyes messed up his transfer two summers ago. If only we'd have had Herrera at the start of 2013/14...
...can't believe Herrera's been sat on the bench for so much of this season.

Knew he'd add goals to our midfield but surprised at how much of a goal threat he is really. In 15 starts, he has 7 goals and 4 assists apparently. Great numbers from a central midfielder.
I'm starting to think we wouldn't have been as terrible to watch as we were under Moyes had we signed this lad earlier. Regardless, I do think we should have signed him at least a year prior.
Gracias. One of the best things Falcao has done this season!
That goal was very smart.
Herrera and Mata are our midfield equivalent of Yorke and Cole.

For every player, there's a certain group of posters who only come out the woodwork to insult certain players at the slightest chance to do so. Herrera's a gem though.
Not surprised by Ander in the least. Got a great attitude to boot and seems to love the club. Great spot/buy by Sir Alex
Then Moyes prolly would still on the job
This. Love the combination between those 3. Valencia didn't have a good game at crossing today, but he's working well with the other two. Mata and Herrera with the intricate play, and Valencia being able to adjust to their game and use his speed.
Herrera was magic today. Pops up everywhere.
He's going to be regarded as one of the best in the league sooner before later, his performances have been immense.
It could be considered a positive that Herrera's mentality wasn't completely obliterated by David Moyes
Yeah that right hand side would look lethal if Valencia could cross.
Brilliant player we haven't had a midfielder like him since Scholes.
Didn't have him as a goalscoring midfielder, but his composure in front of goal is excellent. Never tries to blast it and is always looking for the corners. Two great goals today, topped with a great overall performance.
Fantastic player and great to see him improving every game!
Great stuff.
Great for him to get a couple of goals.
Always maintained it.
When was the last time a United CM scored 2 goals in a single match (not counting Rooney)?

You know that Ballague foretold this a couple of years ago when the transfer was first on. He also said that De Gea would be the best in the world eventually when he was getting flak in his early United career.
Had Herrera not sat on the bench for 10 games, he would probably be a genuine contender for our player of the season. He is the only out-field player putting in performances at De Gea level on a regular basis.
Fabregas 0.08 goals + 0.65 assists per 90 mins = 0.73
Herrera 0.36 goals + 0.29 assists per 90 mins = 0.65
Fabregas 0.08 goals + 0.65 assists per 90 mins = 0.73

Best midfielder in the league on current form. Generally only Fabregas is ahead of him anyways IMO (as Toure shows up on the odd occasion only these days), but he goes missing after New Years always. Herrera, Fabregas, Carrick, Cazorla and Matic are probably the best midfielders in the league.
As said already, fantastic player for us. A player that can use both feet, great touch, great vision, not afraid to shoot, box to box.
Hes what we all wanted Cleverley to be.

Both should never be mentioned in the same post, does a big disservice to Herrera.
You could make a nice 4-3-2-1 with this players.
He's just a lovely little footballer. His bromance with Mata is beautiful as well.
I didn't get the weight/direction of his pass criticism either. There were misplaced balls yes, but they were extremely rare (can only think of 2 myself, the one where he played the ball too soon for Valencia who failed to make a run and a back pass which was over hit) and there were a few lovely penetrative passes he made in the right hand channel (one fantastic through ball for Valencia in the first half which led to the Rooney overhead kick and another in the 2nd half for Mata).
