Been one of the best player on the pitch for United. Provided a good balance of technical skills and dynamism to improve our second half performance.

Yeah, brings so much what both Pogba and Fellaini lack. Been very good in the second half, he is probably one of the main reasons why we actually started to look like a team in comparision with the first half.
Only played one half but was superb.
His introduction changed the game for us. Very good.
Our best midfielder today.
Hell of a performance, tbh!
Should've started. Came on & brought tempo to the play.
That was a very good performance
Great half
Our best player.
Excellent game. Showed passion and commitment and looked hungry. He ran hard and played very well
He played great today
Should play all the big games, he is a big game player, always was
We really need to starting Herrera, looked far better with him on the pitch.
Was brilliant when he came on today.
Great performance and will impress Jose with that. If he keeps putting performances in like that, he'll be a big player this season.
I like him. Technically very good at shows fighting spirit. Him running at top speed is a sight to behold though, looks to fall flat on his face every time.
Very good match, proves again that he's excelling in 433. Wasn't aware that he can play the #6 though in a 3 man midfield.
Was very good but some really aimless/odd long balls from him. Not to mention some very dangerous presses where he completely lost his man when he's meant to be sitting and holding shape 
Love him as a player though. Brought on some much needed urgency.

He is a damn good footballer
Class today when he came in
Shows something lot of us here have been saying for a while. Move to a 4-3-3 and get the best out of this team.
He was very good.
Honestly need to trash Rooney and play 4-3-3 with Herrera starting.
The best performance I have seen from him in a while. Our only actual midfield presence and brought a bit of order to the omnishambles we saw in the first half.
At any of Jose's other clubs he, or the equivalent of him, would have started today, his energy really helped the midfield out.
Big thing was that it allowed Pogba to play further up the field and gave us another option in midfield that could pick up the ball from the back, turn and carry the ball forward rather than playing it backwards or sideways. Also provided much more solidity defensively, though not sure if that's because he did such a good job or because it gave us the extra man in midfield we sorely needed in the first half.
Was really good when he came on.
One of the few players to actually come out of the game well.
He's the B2B we need to bring some steel when we are defending with his tenacious tackling. His deceisive passing and nibble touches are great going forward.
Push Pogba up as he doesn't have that desire to defend, shove Rooney to the wide righr to provide crosses. Finally have Felliani/Schneiderlin sit in front of the back 4.

Xabi Alonso approves of this message!
Seriously, its actually a little bit shameful that Herrera was arguably our best midfielder and one of our best players today. In a Manchester derby players shouldn't need lifting by subs.
He did well today.
His post match interview on MUTV was also impressive. He seems to have a bit more steel about him compared to the last two seasons. Reading between the lines, basically saying to the manager that he needs to pick him and that he can be a leader in this team.

He can be one of our most important players this season.
He was very good. I'd like to see him with Pogba and Fellaini in a 4-3-3
Was our best player by quite a distance. When will we ever switch to a 4-3-3 with Herrera and Pogba ahead of Fellaini/Carrick in DM.
Very good performance. He's a Mourinho type midfield player. I don't know why he's not starting often, but if he doesn't after that performance, I'd start looking for another club if I were him.
Very good today. Needs to be in the starting lineup asap. He provides that much needed intensity that Pogba and Fellaini lack. Hopefully we'll see all 3 of them next game from the start
Energiser bunny. Ran down every half chance today.
Seriously? I know why, we have a certain palyer that is undroppable and therefore we keep playing 4231. You could say he could play instead of Fellaini, but Fellaini played very well so far.
Same. We'd win pretty much every midfield battle with these 3. But it won't happen because of you know who.
