Manchester United defender Eric Bailly is full of praise for midfield teammates Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard.

Speaking to Inside United, Bailly hailed the quality of Spaniard Mata.

"Mata is known as The Wizard. It's magic," he said.

"He is someone who has talent, technique - he's a great player and a great person."

On Lingard, he added: “Jesse is the top man. He's the comedian. He's a really nice guy and someone I appreciate a lot. On the pitch, too; he's an excellent player, very intelligent. Last season he was on top form and the pride of our team. I hope he continues on this path."
