Herrera at Holding

Absolutely criminal how underused he was the last two seasons.

Honestly think he should be made our next captain.
This I said this earlier.. Seems to really want us to do well.. Smalling and Rooney are none captain material..
 
Masterclass today. Fully deserved Eau de Cologne

He really looks like captain material to me. Always shouting and waving his arms to dictate others.

Must be incredibly annoying to play against. Not sure on the numbers, but just from memory he had 4-5 very important defensive plays.

Magic. Has had to wait for an extended run and embrace a new position. Champion player and attitude. Deserves all the plaudits.
 
Neither Fellaini nor Herrera are positionally disciplined enough to play the holding role on their own against a top side. But the two of them together works brilliantly.

I think if you swap Fellaini for Blind you get a bit more passing control in the middle. It's horses for courses. But Pogba ahead of Herrera + A.N. Other has to be the way to go.

I would like to see Blind given a chance there at some point but I have to say that Fellaini looked good next to Herrera, they seemed to compliment each other well. We just need Pogba to get in to some form and we could end up with a very good midfield trio.
 
One of the highlights of the season so far. So glad that he has been given confidence and has taken that to play as well as he is. One of my favorites players at the club at the moment. Had lost a little bit of faith in him after last season, but it's back. He would be perfect if he could pass the ball a little better. May be that aspect too will improve with time.
 
I hope @Bob Loblaw was watching that. Joe Allen and the Spanish Joe Allen both look excellent recently.
 
He is absolute quality in this position atm I feel. He is doing a great job so far and if his performances don't drop he should be given that role next to Pog. As soon as Pogba has found his place in the team those two will be a great duo.
