Ander Herrera declares that Manchester United is optimistic for the derby after the victory at Juve Football

Ander Herrera wants Manchester United to continue to show the obvious personality of the win at Juventus, which he sees as the perfect boost for the Sunday derby in Manchester City. . However, Jose Mourinho's team showed a solid victory by equalizing in the 87th minute of Juan Mata and scoring the goal of Alex Sandro. Since their victory over Newcastle last month, they have lost once in six games, 1-0 at home against Juventus.

Wednesday's win was a third over a loss in the play as United also eliminated their deficit in Bournemouth last Saturday.

"When you play for Manchester United, the biggest club in the UK and one of the biggest in the world, you have to get used to the pressure," Herrera said. "Manchester United players must have the personality to face that. It's true when our Premier League opponents lose, newspapers do not talk much but when we lose, they do.

"I have been here for five years and with [Louis] van Gaal [Mourinho’s predecessor] every day, newspapers were talking about it then. Since Mourinho has arrived, it is the same and we have won titles. One day, if another coach arrives, they [critics] will also speak, so we usually get out of it. "

United's recovery means that morale is high for the match against the champions of Etihad Stadium.

" When you win, you prepare the next match with more optimism, " said Herrera, although he refused to let himself be carried away. "We are the real Manchester United also in tough times because we have to recognize that we have hard times and we need to improve. It is true that the latest results have given us good mood, energy, but the real Manchester United … we will see at the end of the season if we can say that we had a good season.

Herrera does not do much in the past. Matching derby of the season, United beating 3-0 at halftime to impose 3-2.

"It's a new match, a new situation," said the midfielder. "Let's hope we can win. True, they are the favorites because they are in incredible form, but it's Manchester United and you never know what can happen. "
