Matic Is One Of The Best In The World in His Position – Herrera

Ander Herrera has made it a personal mission to make Paul Pogba the best in the world.

“I feel very good to play with Paul,” Herrera told Scandinavian supporters’ magazine United-Supporteren.

“We know his qualities. His football is free, so you can’t keep him in one position, because then you lose all his qualities. So, when you play with him, you know he can win the game for you.

“I think there are not too many midfielders who can score 10 goals and give 12 assists, so we have to give him the freedom he deserves to win games for us.

“Matic, Carrick, Fellaini and myself have to help him be the best in the world. If we are there to balance the midfield, he can score goals for you and give assists. He is a fantastic player.”

“There will be a lot of games this season, so we will sometimes play with two and sometimes with three, so we have a lot of solutions.

“Matic is a master class, one of the best in the world in that position, and I think he is going to help us a lot. With Carrick and Matic I have two mentors that I can learn from.

“I know I can play more forward than them, when we play with three, so I will be there for the manager whenever he needs me. Sometimes as number six, sometimes as number eight, sometimes No. 10.”
