JAMIE REDKNAPP’S BIG MATCH VERDICT

-

JOSE MOURINHO has always had players who are masters of the dark arts such as Didier Drogba at Chelsea and Pepe at Real Madrid. Now we’re seeing similar trouble-making from Ander Herrera (right) — whether it’s diving, provoking players or trying to get an opponent sent off. But Herrera is a workhorse in midfield. He’s had a fine campaign and is United’s unsung hero. PAUL POGBA was not the only one of United’s big-money signings to impress against Ajax. Henrikh Mkhitaryan also came up trumps after failing to fulfil his potential this season. We have seen glimpses — such as the scorpion kick against Sunderland — and last night he produced another moment of inspiratio­n to give United a 2-0 lead. His season only got going in November. I can’t wait to see a full campaign from Mkhitaryan at his best.
