We gonna get how he is World class for next few weeks after a few decent smash and grabs?
Herrera definitely has to play for me. Like you say he may not be the most technical or have the silkiest touch, but he brings what a lot of our players are missing in his fight and willingness to work.
Wouldn't say no to Rashford starting either but I wouldn't say anything bad about Jesse as he's actually one of the best when it comes to quick passing and his movement helps create lots of space for others.
My concerns lay more with the midfield as I don't think Matic is helping out at either end of the pitch as much as he should be and Pogba is so hot and cold.
I have often been quite quick to criticise Herrera recently but he has shown that he should be starting alongside Matic and Pogba. He brings more stability to our midfield.

Not good at reading are you?
Worst decision Jose made was buying Matic last summer and putting Herrera on the bench after being our player of the season.
He's probably our most hated player by oppo fans, was great seeing some of the comments after last night's game, he's still got it
I’ve always liked Herrera and he doesn’t get the recognition for his technical ability either. He’s got a great touch and good close control and his forward passing and through balls are very good.

This. He obviously isn't Xavi Hernandez but he's a technically proficient player who compares well with the median level of our squad. I think this gets overlooked a bit because he's prepared to scrap and because there isn't a hint of ostentatiousness in his style.

United poster makes a thread saying how a player isn't the most gifted of midfielders, resident Liverpool wumtard has the first response suggesting how we are/will make out like said midfielder is world class.
Serious question; do you wake up each morning and think about how you can make yourself look more moronic than the previous day?
Back to the OP, Herrera should deffo be starting ahead of Matic. At the moment I would have Herrera, Fred and Pogba, with Pereira getting a few chances here and there.
I think the fact Herrera actually looks like hes trying on the pitch i.e. sprinting/going into tackles makes him a favourite, for all the deficiencies some players have most fans wont care as long as there putting in 100%, look at pogba/matic for example who basically stroll around the whole game

If you had Fred and Herrera behind Pogba then he wouldn't have to do much running. I really don't think that Jose makes the right team selections/finds the right balance. Pogba doesn't want to do the dirty work most of the time, so you need to have lots of energy and mobility in behind him. Instead Jose picks Matic.
matic is turning into the fellaini of the last few years, just no idea why he's in the starting line up, but unlike fellaini who has a role now from the bench matic cant be used like that, remember we used to use fellaini when defending a lead(great idea) now he primarily used to chase games
How he got Dybala booked too
Listen to his post match interview after the Bournemouth match, he understands the club and fans!

Not from me.
What you will get is that Matic should never be in the team ahead of him,.
Hope this eases any confusion you might have in the matter.
Watch him talk to Mata after he scored last night.
His anticipation is great too, has a real knack of intercepting things in fairly dangerous positions, something Carrick was great at
I get the impression he genuinely loves the club, which is a bit of a rarity these days. I think he should be starting ahead of Matic as well, though think the big Serb had one of his more decent games for us last night.
Agree on Herrera but Lingard to keep his place on Sunday, for me. He is more creative than Rashford and his workrate will be needed.
He is more creative than Rashford
......................
Is he? When was the last time Lingard did something creative?
Last night. He drops deep and starts passing moves.

Good grief.
Yep, i'd give Herrera the armband and play him every game he's fit.
Quality player with a real footballing brain. Hopefully we get to see Herrera, Fred and Pogba soon.

I certainly think this would be our most energetic midfield. Hopefully Fred can push on. I have seen enough to see there is a good player there.
