Herrera Returns After Scoring For Manchester United, Thorpe For Under-21s
An inspiring and committed midfielder of Manchester United, Ander Herrera has a promising return to first-team action after a spectacular game for the Under-21s. Ander Herrera who overshadowed the game with his tantalising moves, speed, and bravado rendered Tom Thorpe with an injury to which the latter carried through the end of the game.
Ander Herrera who signed a thirty million pound for the summer from Athletic Bilbao participated in a Manchester United game with Blackburn Rovers which ended in a five a 5-0 scoring in the Lancashire Senior Cup on Tuesday. Herrera, despite suffering from a rib fracture in the game's 2-1 win over West Ham United on September is determined to not let his team mates down.
Herrera's overwhelming perseverance to contribute to the team pushed him to make a premature return against West Bromwich Albion to which he struggled physically. Herrera's well-taken goal was added in the first half and by then, the tempo of the game was primarily dictated by him, just as when United takes dominance in the midfield.
Thorpe also made a brief first team debut for Manchester but was otherwise limited due to Louis van Gaal's preference for Paddy Mcnair at the centre position in the field. Due to a suspected ankle injury suffered by Thorpe, United is expected to give a statement regarding Thorpe's condition later this Wednesday.
On another note, Jonny Evans' come back, as he is the other reserve on Tuesday, Jonny Evans, is yet another something to look forward to considering he also suffered an ankle injury from last September's 5-3 defeat to Leicester City. Amid these entire injury crises, the Northern Island International has missed its last seven games which placed Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo, and Rafael da Silva sidelined.
As expected Evans is deemed ready for the next Premier League game on Nov. 29 against Hull City after a series of clutch games against Crystal Palace and Arsenal. Evans is expected to be ready for the next Premier League game against Hull City on Saturday, Nov. 29 after back-to-back victories against Crystal Palace and Arsenal.
