Apparently he can. He sent a tweet in English to Rio once I think.
Ander Herrera is a Manchester United Player!

Haha its gorgeous sundhine here in London and as usual its pissing it down in Manchester.
No white sheet.
well i did say most are at a similar level, meaning Fleth, Cleverley, Ando and Fellaini.
In no way would i bracket Carrick and Herrera with those guys
You're underestimating Herrera a bit.
See above post
On the question of loyalty to Fletcher - which you didnt raise so I dont know why your post made me think of it - I think we'd be doing him more of a favour sending him on to a club where he can be at the heart of things, rather than keeping him on the periphery here. At a mid table club in England or a big club in Scotland he could get a lot of football.
I literally can't wait to see him photographed with De Gea. I'll instantly have the image of him thinking to himself 'another one crossed off the list. Koke up next'. 
I bet we'll hear stories of De Gea constantly messaging Herrera when is he joining like he did with Mata.
Nothing wrong with Dave seducing Spainards to Old Trafford.I literally can't wait to see him photographed with De Gea. I'll instantly have the image of him thinking to himself 'another one crossed off the list. Koke up next'.
Bit of a Spanish contingent now
This Bilbao fan is clearly unhappy. He's made a list of 'traitors' to Athletic:
Honestly I feel for him after Rooney and his two transfer requests in three years. It would've been a lot better for everyone, including the Athletic fans, if we had just signed him last summer and not made them go through this see-saw process.
Ah well he's ours now.

Nothing at all wrong with it. He seems to be good friends with most of the highly rated Spaniards too, he's just a really friendly lad by the looks of it.
Javi Martinez should be next on De Gea's list of targets.
Anderson is better than Cleverley and Fellaini.
I do have great respect for this club and their basque philosophy. I always thought when they sold for high fees, well they deserve it. So I can't see it any diffrent now that it is United to sign one from there.
At his best, certainly but his worst (which happens more often) is absolutely terrible. Cleverley and Fellaini are very shit too when they are out of form, but I think it happens rarely than with Anderson.
No white sheet.
is that a purple vauxhall corsa! we're really pulling out all the stops to sign him.
Every time I read the thread title on the main forum page I think it's about to say "Spanish Press..." conference. The sooner this gets done, the better.
We'll have no problems signing Spaniards now we've got De Gea, Mata and Herrera
What I like about this transfer is that LvG clearly rates Herrera, or it wouldn't have been pushed through so efficiently, and at that price
So let's hope he hits the ground running.
forgive me for my lack of education but could someone please tell me what all this BASQUE business is and how it effects transfer fees?

Agent De Gea can't claim credit for this one, can he?
What on earth has Anderson done to be considered better than Fellaini? (not that I rate him highly either.)
Bilbao have a rather unique policy of singing only Basque players. It can result in difficult transfer windows and a reliance on their academy to produce the goods.
Bilbao only sign players from their own specific region of Spain. Therefore they have a very small talent pool from which to pick. Therefore the players they do have are worth more to them. Therefore they are inflexible when it comes to transfers, they set a price at which they are prepared to sell and they dont budge from it.
If they could sign anyone players would be easier to replace and therefore wouldnt be worth so much, basically.
Oh yes, what KM said.
Basque country is an area of northern Spain. Bilbao only allow players of Basque origin or 'nationality' on their books. Therefore, they don't have a wide pool of players to choose from when it comes to replacing their players and therefore demand top money.
IIRC, Real Sociedad had a similar ethos until recent years and they now allow foreign and non-Basque players.
Its amazing they can remain competitive with a policy like that to be honest. I guess it makes them work harder developing players.
...at a pie eating competition.
Anderson cant complete a full 90 minute match. I'm amazed that he still earns a living off our club.
Yep, if I remember correctly they're the only club in Spain with Real Madrid to have never been relegated too. Unreal.
Compared to Real, definitely unReal.
If we signed Martinez as well as Herrera I may actually get up and go running down the road.
Never write off Daves influence in capturing Spaniards.
I feel foolish for ever doubting him. God he really does get around.
On a side note Mata should really teach him on how to wear a suit.
Never write off Daves influence in capturing Spaniards.
He's become our new Jorge Mendes.
*splosh*
Played football for Manchester United better than Fellaini has. What else could it possibly be? Or are you one of these new age weirdos that want a statistical evaluation of their performances?
Feel in uncharted waters here - not sure what happens when one of these transfer threads has a successful resolution!!!
He has a future agent in him, that's for sure.
Yep, Barca too! But that's it!
