Man Utd ace Mata enjoying Herrera partnership

Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata is enjoying his football alongside with Ander Herrera.

The pair came through Spain's international ranks together and, alongside current team-mate David De Gea, won the European Under-21 Championship in 2011.

"I think maybe we see the game in the same way," Mata told ManUtd.com.

"We are different players but we like to play the same way, which is to try to pass, to assist, to move and to find the gaps in the opposition defence. Ander is a great player and everyone who plays with him enjoys it."
