Pundit Danny Higginbotham put it best when he said: “That’s how you want it to feel. If you’re sitting there laughing and joking then it’s no good.  He was a standout player today.

“He’s had a fantastic season, scored again today — his second goal for the football club — and he is a player, no doubt about it whatsoever, that Solskjaer will want around the place.”

The academy graduate has been amongst the few players whose performances were hailed in the tougher encounters that United have had as of recent, particularly against Barcelona. A staple for next season?
