Fred is a good mufc level player. Always has been.

Herrera was not remotely even an epl level player.

Just not comparable. He was a clueless, directionless pointless acquisition.

Only those that just don't get the game could see it any other way - and there appears to be plenty of those

You are an idiot sandwich.

Herrera was massively overrated and such a limited player. Turned out to be a snake in the end too.

Fred has come in and done a great job.

Glad he's getting recognition for it. A lovely couple of goals tonight.

Completely disagree with all what you said about Herrera. He was probably our big game player and performed more often than not in the big games. He was reliable but not spectacular. His game management was excellent and it was the clubs fault and nit Herreras that he has gone. Waiting til right at the end of his contract before offering him a new one. Anothee amateur error by the club but he was a decent player who played for the badge and we could have done with him numerous times thus season

Still think he lacks a few fundamentals to be a top quality player. He often turns into trouble, gives the ball away too often, delays a pass and his positioning leaves a lot to be desired if he's the defensive option in a three.

I think the stood out in a very poor period for us mid way through the season and people have gone from one end of the spectrum to the other. Realistically if we're ti gzttbac'we challanging he's a squad player imo.

My handle originally was pure jest. Apparently I did some good.

A snake? Jose didn't play him or want him to he made up his mind to move. He had already agreed a deal with PSG before Ole took over and honoured that decision. Nothing snakey about that. He had a contract with us and he saw that contract out and never gave less than 100% when he was on the pitch. If the rest of the payers we have had since SAF retired had put in the same effort as Herrera then we would have done much better.

lol, you really are one of the most clueless posters I’ve seen on here.

i always thought herrera was a very good player and would be a big loss for the team as i thought fred wasn't up to it. glad to see him doing okay because he puts in the effort. the midfield is starting to take shape.
when everyone is fit is pogba in the plans for next year?

Herrera was a good player. What we miss most about him is his attitude and commitment. He understood the club and the fans and it is a shame that he left. We would have been a useful option for us this season.

I’d have a a fully fit, on form Herrera over Fred I think.

But there isn’t that much in it now. If we get more from Fred like we’ve seen the last few months, he’ll be a very good squad option when we go and buy a proper partner for McT

Always said Fred has a good skill set. Didn't see him last night but was pretty good against us last game.

Herrera is possibly the most overrated player I've ever seen on these boards. I find it baffling tbh. Spanish Joe Allen.
