Ander Herrera Backs Anthony Martial to Become Best in the World

Despite spending a hard time at Manchester United, Ander Herrera believes winger Anthony Martial can become the best in the world.

Martial had a difficult time at Manchester United last season.

The French winger scored 11 goals in all competitions last season but was used sparingly by manager Jose Mourinho. He completed 90 minutes in just six games in the Premier League.

Indeed, the 22-year old also got left out of France’s World Cup-winning squad after a patchy season. Martial’s agent subsequently claimed earlier this summer that Martial wants to leave United.

Herrera, though, believes his team-mate can thrive at Old Trafford. He has backed Martial to take his game to another level this season. Herrera told Sky Sports,

“He’s very talented. He can be one of the best players in the world, and I think he is very focused this season to smash it. When you have players like Anthony, like Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, Alexis Sanchez, those kind of players that can change the game.”

Indeed, Herrera believes United can be confident of success this season. He also insisted no squad in the league is better than Manchester United.

“If one of them cannot play, we have three or four more so we have lots of options. I think we shouldn’t think that any other club in the Premier League has better players because at least we have as good as the opponents. Now it’s all about work, confidence, about keep playing like he did [in the friendly against CF America]. I am confident with them because they are all amazing players and Anthony looks very sharp.”

United face San Jose Earthquakes in a pre-season friendly on Sunday. Then they will compete in the International Champions Cup, with games against AC Milan, Liverpool and Real Madrid looming.
