Played as a DM or not aside, the point is if he would have done the job well.

That guy is a machine, does not commit those errors and can pass.
The point is he’s better as a DM than what we currently have and that was why nitrogen brought his name up.

Herrera can pass, tackle, dribble, shoot, etc - plus he’s the master of shithousery. He knows how to frustrate opponents to death. He’s the master of dark arts.

He frustrated Gerrard so bad in one game at Anfield and Gerrard got a red card that allowed United to win the game without pressure.

Mind you, his brilliant assist got Mata the first goal before the red card. In the game against Chelsea where he shadowed Hazard for 90 minutes, he assisted the first goal and scored the 2nd. Chelsea had no shot on target that day.

Herrera is a monster!

Can give accurate through pass

Man Utd fans who can't remember Pogba and Herrera pairing, with Herrera playing DM.
Many of them couldn’t afford DSTV to watch live games when Herrera was at United.

They only started watching Herrera after Osinbajo launched MarketMoni/TraderMoni which afforded them the coins to subscribe.

Brainless antelopes. cheesy grin

He didn't play DM for us. Only on very few occasions. Our DMs since Ferguson has been Blind, Carrick, Schweisteiger, Sneiderlin, Matic, Fred/McTominay.

Herrera and Fellaini were occasionally used when there was no DM due to injuries
This is another evidence why I don’t rely on bankrupt memories like yours and the other bunch of retards when discussing Manchester United.

I ask again, did Herrera ever play as a DM for United or not? cheesy cheesy

“He didn’t play DM for us but he played on few occasions.”

Which is which?

This is like saying elampiro isn’t a man but he has a penis he fücks girls with occasionally. grin cheesy

The fact is - he played there and he can play there.

Herrera played as a DM for United 33 times, and assisted 4 goals for United from that position.

33 games as a DM is enough to see he is a competent combative midfielder that could have helped this current team.

Ronaldo and Messi don't have this stats at 21.

27 apps with 29 goals at Salzburg

15 apps with 12 goals for Norway NT
That’s what I said.

Haaland at 21 = Prime Ronaldo(27) = Prime Messi(25)

Your guy; Haaland can't stop scoring.

Banged double today, scored hattrick for Norway last week.

I hope OLE won't miss out on this guy.
Haaland is the future. cool

At 21, he’s just casually dropping prime Ronaldo/prime Messi stats.

65 games, 65 goals, 19 assists for Dortmund.

This boy is ridiculous.

Lukaku will get 25 PL goals this season. He has everything he wants at Chelsea.

The support system is gracious. Kante, Jorginho, Havertz, Mount, Pulisic, Hudson-Odoi, Ziyech, etc.

Lukakuuuuu

EPL golden boot race will be tough this season:
Lukaku
Ronaldo
Bruno
Salah
Kane
Aubameyang
Penalty takers have the edge.

Jorginho will rob Lukaku of many goals.

This is another player that could be balling for United as we speak until a certain Norwegian PE teacher decided to play him from the flanks to accommodate Martial and Rashford.

Nobody wants to talk about how they went past Matic like he wasn't there a couple of times or I should mind my business?
Matic doesn’t have the legs any more. It’s not his fault. Ole offered him a contract and picked him for this game - Matic wouldn’t refuse such a generous offer.

The Matic of 2014 would have also been an excellent addition to this current United squad. That Matic was a baller. The current Matic should be playing seniors. cheesy

Jones and Martial contract was renewed before the last year.

Herrera was the one sending reminders to OLE and his crew. grin Just Imagine
Jones & Smalling, especially.
One can still see the reason why Martial’s contract was quickly sorted.

There’s no way Smalling & Jones should be getting a renewal before Herrera.

That’s just gross disrespect for a player that paid his buy-out clause from his own pocket to join Man Utd.

Solksjaer is just useless.

Where he was our Best Midfielder self.

Always behind DeGea in Man Utd Player Of the Season Award
His passion is 110% and it’s very contagious.

Herrera gives everything on the pitch until the Norwegian fraud started playing hide and seek - giving British players new bumper contracts and ignoring Herrera.

He felt unwanted and engineered a move away from OT. I will never forget the job he did against Ajax in the last trophy won by this club. He was everywhere.

Wont be the end of the world if we could price him back to OT tbh.
Ole’s IQ wouldn’t even think that far.

I won’t be surprised if Ole signs Maddison instead of a DM in the coming transfer windows.

He doesn’t even realize United have a DM problem.

Shadowing one player is easier than shadowing multiple players going through the middle and having to turn up at sides to cut out attacks though
Herrera has done that role plenty of times. He was born to do it.

Herrera can do everything in the midfield.

Heard that Herrera scored two goals today. Just imagine Herrera as DM at Utd, choi Alerts just dey land anyhow.
Herrera as a DM in this team and United would win every trophy available.

Herrera has an incredible engine in him and he can defend. I saw this dude shadow prime Hazard for 90 minutes.

Even at half time, Herrera was following Hazard to Chelsea’s dressing room. He’s a beast of a player.

TBH, Ronaldo’s game has changed significantly. So, the hype won’t fly for a player like him. He is not going to dribble or showboat a lot. He wants to score goals.
And only goals matter.

Minus Ronaldo today, United would be losing this game.

He needs decent full backs that can cross.

The bottom 12 teams in the league would set up like this against United throughout the season. It’s inevitable.

Shaw has tried so far, but AWB can't cross.

We might use Dalot for this.
No decent cross in the first half. He was always hitting the first man or putting it too close to the goalie.

Ronaldo would start demanding more from them. They have been horrible all day.

Newcastle are packing the middle and leaving the flanks bare. It’s almost as if they knew United’s full backs are totally inept.

Lol, Sancho should cross
Sancho shouldn’t be crossing. He should be tucking in against teams that are parking the bus.

I rarely see Mane/Salah crossing. They tuck in so that their full backs can deliver miracles into the box.
