Ander Herrera offers motivational praise to under-firing Alexis Sanchez

Ander Herrera did not only please Manchester United fans with his opening goal and performance against Chelsea but he also delighted them with his actions at the end of the game.

The midfielder broke the deadlock in the 31st minute with a header as United secured a 2-0 victory over the Blues to reach the FA Cup quarter-finals.

But it was his conversation with under-firing Alexis Sanchez at full-time that also went down particularly well with United supporters.
