Former Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood admits he's a big fan of Manchester United midfielder Hannibal Mejbri.

Sherwood feels Mejbri should be playing more this season.

He said, "He [Erik ten Hag] seems to pick superstars. £50m, £70m, £100m players – he throws them onto the pitch and hopes one of them does something to get him out the mire.

"That is what has happened. He's had to go to a kid in the academy to do that for him now. Hannibal got into that side. Say what you want about him and people will say, 'He's not a £100m player, he's not this or that' – but he went to Birmingham, worked hard on loan there, he came back and for me, he was Man of the Match in a couple games.

"But as soon as someone else is fit, he is out the door. Sit on the bench, son. Someone else comes in and strolls around the pitch, doesn't want to run around or get the ball back. It's up to the manager to put the cocktail together."
