Park: Best Still To Come From Herrera

Ji-sung Park believes Manchester United fans are still to see the best of Ander Herrera.

The Spaniard, like the former South Korean star, is hugely popular with the Old Trafford faithful and was voted the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year last month.

Despite an outstanding campaign for the former Athletic Club man, Park, speaking ahead of the Legends double-header with Barcelona, believes more improvement will be forthcoming in 2017/18 as the 27-year-old hits his peak.

"I think he’s worked hard on the pitch," Park told ManUtd.com. "He’s very clever. He is a great midfielder and, actually, I played against him when he played for Athletic Club. 

"It’s really good for the team to have that kind of player and he is really appreciated by the fans for what he has done for the club. He is still improving, actually, and can be even stronger than last season."

Park played in former colleague Michael Carrick's testimonial at the end of the season and was pleased with the confirmation that the 35-year-old has signed a one-year extension to his contract.

"He’s very composed on the ball," said Park. "He can control the whole game. He has the experience, having been at the club for 11 years, and it’s good to have him for another year. He can use his experience and share it, particularly with the young players, so I believe it’s a great deal for him and for the club."
