Herrera: I want to play for United for as long as possible

Fans’ favourite, Ander Herrera, has spoke about why he goes so bonkers when one of his teammates scores a big goal for Manchester United. Whether that’s Bastian Schweinsteiger’s late deflected winner at Watford, or Wayne Rooney’s strike at Anfield, the Spaniard can be seen going crazy on the bench.

We have to go everywhere to win and to make our fans proud. That’s why I react like this. I feel the passion for this game and I always say the same, when you play for such a big club, you want to be there as long as possible. When you score and the team is winning, that means everything is alright and things are going good and I want to be part of that. There is nothing better than that moment or that feeling.

However, it’s not just United games that bring out his wild side. When Andres Iniesta scored the winning goal the World Cup final, with just five minutes of extra time remaining, Herrera went crazy.

I was with my friends and we were together watching that game. There is no video about that but, if the video was there, it would be very, very crazy!
