Spaniards De Gea, Mata and Herrera all flourishing in England

Three Manchester United players are in Spain's squad for their friendly against England at Wembley on Tuesday, a trio who've all performed well for their club so far this season.

David de Gea, Juan Mata and Ander Herrera are all expected to feature at the national stadium of the country where they earn their living. De Gea was the only one of the three amigos to play in Spain's 4-0 World Cup qualifying win over Macedonia on Saturday in Granada which keeps them top of group G ahead of Italy on goal difference.

Mata has played 40 times for his country, scoring 10 times, since making his debut under Vicente del Bosque in 2009, but he's been a peripheral player for the team which boasts the best midfield in the world.
