Manchester United midfielder, Ander Herrera, has admitted that he is not taking his place in Jose Mourinho’s team for granted.
Herrera put in a fantastic display, as United beat Chelsea 2-0 in the Premier League on Sunday. The Spaniard laid on the first goal for Marcus Rashford, before seeing his deflected effort loop over Asmir Begovic for the second goal.
He, however, admits he is worried about his place in the team.
“We have great players and Manchester United has the capacity to sign big players, so I cannot sleep,” Herrera told United’s official website.
“I have to keep working, performing and giving what the manager wants me to give.
“I am a team player, I want to give everything for the manager and I don’t look back. I just look forward.”
The 27-year-old has made more starts this season, than in his previous two campaigns at Old Trafford and credits Mourinho for trusting him.
“I am very thankful to him,” Herrera added.
“This season has been the most regular for me and that is with Mourinho on the bench. I am very happy.
“He gave me, from the first day, a lot of confidence and he told me that I was going to be an important player for him.”
