'He's a beast with people who aren't honest': Ander Herrera praises former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho... as midfielder admits PSG squad were 'very surprised' that Ligue 1 season was curtailed early

Ander Herrera has praised his former manager Jose Mourinho, insisting he 'only feels gratitude to him' after their time together at Manchester United.

The Spanish midfielder, now at PSG, worked with Mourinho for two-and-a-half years at Old Trafford, winning the Europa League and the FA Cup together.

Herrera was a regular in the starting XI under the Portuguese manager, and despite often falling-out with players at United - most noticeably fellow midfielder Paul Pogba - Mourinho did not have a problem with players who 'worked hard and don't mess him about', says Herrera.
