Man Utd midfielder Herrera excited facing Valencia

Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera is looking forward to Tuesday's friendly against Valencia.

Herrera is set for his first season in English football following his move from Bilbao, but will come up against familiar faces when United take on Valencia.

"It will be special," said Herrera. "Juan (Mata) has said to me they were a big club for him because he was there when he first started to play in the first division in Spain. It will be a big game for him but of course he wants a United win.

"I have played against them a lot. They always want to keep the ball and traditionally they are an offensive team."
