4 Manchester United players who deserve the captain's armband

#2 Ander Herrera

Herrera is certainly a player that managers can count on

It is true that Ander Herrera has not been the most consistent performers at Manchester United since his arrival five years ago, but definitely, he is one of the players that a manager can count on for an important match because of his technical abilities.

The United midfielder has an astonishing 88% pass accuracy rate and a dribble success rate of 71% this season, which is amongst the best in the squad. His recent on-pitch behaviour in the loss to PSG and draw against Liverpool, suggested that he can be relied upon to lift the morale of the squad in tough times. That surely is one of the roles a captain should always play properly.

Herrera has been the fans' favourite to be named the captain. According to Squawka, the Spaniard has been an important player for the club almost every season and fans are appreciative of his efforts. With such a strong fan-base behind him, it could be a wise decision to name the 29-year-old the captain.
