Herrera's salute

ANDER Herrera has praised the number of game-changers in the Manchester United ranks in the wake of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's late midweek winner at Crystal Palace.

Having been pegged back to draw 1-1 in three of their previous four Premier League outings going into the Selhurst Park clash, Jose Mourinho's side appeared to be heading towards a similar result before Ibrahimovic struck with two minutes to go.

His sixth goal in as many games wrapped up a vital 2-1 win for the Red Devils after Paul Pogba's opener had been cancelled out by James McArthur.

Pogba scored despite being in an offside position as he met Ibrahimovic's knock-down, which appeared to come off the arm of the Swedish striker.

The same pair then combined for United's dramatic winner as Pogba's slide-rule pass was finished with aplomb by Ibrahimovic.

"When you have top players, they can do that (win a game)," said Herrera.

"They don't need to play their best game to change it. That is where we have Paul, Wayne Rooney, Juan Mata, Anthony Martial, Ibrahimovic, top players who can change the game even when they are not playing their best. That is fantastic for us."

United head to improving West Brom in the Premier League tomorrow.
