PSG midfielder Herrera: These 3 stars can take Man Utd forward

PSG midfielder Ander Herrera says former Manchester United teammates Paul Pogba, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford have what it takes to go all the way to the top.

The Spaniard, who spent five years at Old Trafford, says the trio are key if United are to get back to winning ways domestically.

"They have the quality to be among the top 10 in the world," Herrera told The Athletic. "Why do we admire Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, or [Eden] Hazard, who I also think is one of the best in the world?

"We admire them because they keep that form for a long time.

"If they do it, they will become - maybe not Messi or Cristiano, because they are unique in the history of football - but they can be top five or top 10, but they have to do it for a long time and keep it up.

"It is the same for Paul. Rashford is on his way to doing it. And Paul can be the best midfielder in the world if he keeps playing those games where we are all amazed by him. But to keep it at that level is the most difficult thing in football.

"To keep at it it Sunday, Wednesday, Saturday, every time. If those three can do that, Manchester United will win the Premier League soon, for sure."
