Along with Dalot he was our best player. Showed everything we bought him for. I’d give him a run now until the end of the season and let him improve. It’s clear he currently performs better in European games, just needs to get used to the Premiership.
Great performance. Ideal replacement for Herrera if he leaves.
Just like McTominay, he deserves to start all our games now.
He’s a baller. Just needs a run of games
Based on his last 2 UCL games it's clear why Pep wanted him, you could see him in that City midfield no problems. Needs to get used to the speed of the PL and if he does that he'll come good
Tied MOTM with Scotty. He played an excellent passing game. Linked the defense to attack very well. More of this please, Fred.
Could not care less Herrera is leaving. Fred is much more talented.
There's a very good player in there
Dalot? He did nothing. Fred, Mctomminay, Smalling etc were all miles better than Dalot.
Best player today. He looked like a top quality midfielder in the second half, in particular. Calm, forward-thinking, great defensively, intelligent.
Tried to keep the game ticking over. Haven't seen a performance like that in our midfield since Carrick.

Signs of life.
He was fantastic tonight.
He made 14 ball recoveries today! Was everywhere in the second half.
Honestly can anyone imagine Matic and Herrera bossing the midfield like Mctominay and Fred did?

Brilliant as he has been for a while despite everyone jumping on the Wolves mistake and deeming him useless.
Hopefully Fred and McTominay are rewarded for their performances and given the opportunity to continue in those roles for a few games at least.
Seems well suited to champions league, let's hope he can properly adapt to the premier league. Great game today.
Has been very good recently and most of the time when I have seen him. Apart from the errors I can't understand why we have not used him a lot more this season.
deserved to be on the winning team. Had the measure of his opposing numbers.
Great game and there's a player in there for certain with his best performances against two of the giants in Europe
His best game to date. Pogba could learn a thing or two from him and McTominay.
Definately.
Class tonight. All the energy you get from Hererra with a range and consistency of passing I don’t think I’ve ever seen from Ander. Someone in the Hererra thread suggested he might end up being an upgrade and got the piss taken out of him. That might end up being exactly the way things turn out.
MOTM tonight for me.
Played well but not setting the world alight. And he did have his usual misplaced pass in the build-up which gifted them a huge chance.
I like how he is so good on both feet, it gives us an extra split second in terms of passing which helps the ball moving forward.
The best game from him since he came. Was absolutely everywhere, I was surprised with his defensive output too. There's a player in there it seems. Fred McT pairing actually looks pretty good.
Not sure if that was me but I did mention in the Herrera to PSG thread that him being here makes Ander redundant, when people were panicking at the time about leaving on a free
He is very good in a central role unlike at wide midfield. He seems to be improving on the basics too. Good performance.
Yeah. Makes me jealous! Played a game in central midfield last weekend for the first time in years. Forgot how disgustingly one footed I am.
Very promising performance. Most pleasing part was his passing was good with both feet. When the passing lane was blocked, he just passed the ball with other feet. Looks very talented player, hopefully he will get run of games now.
Very good against best midfield in the world
Good performance. Clearly best off the ball. His passes are often unnecessarily hard, and still does silly mistakes. Would like to play him solely in games where we are not going to be much possession.
He was brilliant, totally commited, need to give him a proper run in the team, I'm sure he will become a important player for us next season.
I can use my left foot but for simple short passes, if it gets to a serious distance then there is no way I won't twist myself to at least attempt it the outside of the right foot.He is playing more like what Verrarti and Thiago are doing for their team as deepest midfielder.
Been saying all season that I still have faith in him. Was great in Paris, very good at The Emirates, and fantastic again tonight. I think he will be very good next season.
Keep playing the lad and let him get some confidence. He was so good tonight.
I said it before, his potential is a more technical version of Kante, without the niceness 
I think new players coming from weaker leagues should have the chance to play many games in a row to pick the pace of the league and not be scared to death by the risk of be dropped after a mistake or a bad game, because is not a smart strategy.
