Paul Pogba has paid tribute to senior Manchester United teammate Nemanja Matic.
The Serbia international has been a player reborn in the middle of the park, ousting Scott McTominay from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's starting XI.
And Pogba told the United Review: “Nemanja is the mentor of the team.
"He gives us our balance, he pushes me to get forward and he directs me sometimes - he'll say 'go for it', or 'stay there'.
“He's been great, he's always giving me advice and as a midfielder he has experience and he's won things but he always wants more.
"He trains hard and is always professional and that's what we need in the team, we need someone like that.
"He's been great at pushing the team to where we are now. It's been unbelievable, it's been great to have him as a teammate."
