Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera has spoken about the methods of boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The interim boss has led United to six Premier League wins in a row, putting them back in contention for a top four finish.

And Spanish midfielder Herrera believes that Solskjaer impressed the team by delivering a simple and uplifting message to the players.

"Since the first day he arrived the message has been very clear: this is Manchester United and you have to show that you are Manchester United players," Herrera told the club's website.

"He asked us to show that, and that we want the ball even in the difficult moments in games.

"I think we have done that. Newcastle away, for example, is a really tough atmosphere, they are waiting every year for United to come so they can try to beat us, but I think the team reacted very well in the second half."
