Man Utd Star Calls Dynamic Front Trio The Best In The World

Manchester United new boy Ander Herrera has declared that the club’s front three of Wayne Rooney, Robin van Persie and Radamel Falcao are the best in the world, as reported by the Daily Mirror.

He has even gone as far as to say that to play behind the trio is nothing less than an honour.

Herrera is currently out injured with a fractured rib, putting him on the sidelines shortly after his big money move from Athletic Bilbao in the summer.

He said: “I want to try to score more goals. It’s very important for the midfielders.

“I like assists as well and I think we have maybe the best three strikers in the world here in Rooney, Van Persie and Falcao.

“Juan [Mata], Angel [Di Maria], Adnan [Januzaj], Daley [Blind], Fletch [Darren Fletcher] and me are all going to help them try to score, and if I score of course I’ll be very happy.

“The Premier League is a great league. It’s a very quick league, non-stop and great spectacle for the fans.

“That’s good because sometimes in other countries there are more teams that try to keep the ball in their end of the pitch but in the Premier League you will see a lot of goals.”

Man Utd began the new season in poor form, and fell to defeats against newly promoted Leicester and League One side MK Dons.

The loss against MK Dons was particularly humbling, with the minnows winning that game 4-0 against a weakened Man Utd side.

A series of signings seems to have arrested their poor form, however, with a pair of 2-1 wins prior to the international break against West Ham and Everton aiding their climb up the table.

Man Utd Wonderkid Praises £91M Duo’s Training Ground Displays

Manchester United starlet Andreas Pereira has pointed to the club’s summer signings Angel Di Maria and Ander Herrera as two of the better performers in training, as reported by the Daily Express.

Di Maria moved to Man Utd from Real Madrid, with the Red Devils breaking the record outlay for a British club by paying £59.7 million for the player.

Herrera did not come cheap either, with the Old Trafford club having to match his release clause to push through a transfer.

They paid £32 million to Athletic Bilbao for his signature.

Both have impressed since the new Premier League season kicked off, with the duo posting a combined total of five goals and four assists.

Di Maria has been adjudged as the best of the lot, winning both the Player and Goal of the Month awards at Man Utd.

Pereira, who has been involved with the first team, has said the two have impressed considerably in training.

He said: “Everyone’s been really good but the best in training, for me, is Angel Di Maria. He’s very good in training as well as in matches.

“I also admire Ander Herrera for the way he plays in my position but also the way he speaks to the other players.

 

“I can think back, a couple of weeks ago, to when Di Maria scored an unbelievable goal.

“We did some finishing after training with the forwards and he scored a brilliant strike.

“He controlled it and bounced the ball into the top corner. It was incredible.”
