Manchester United legend Antonio Valencia has reportedly been left amazed by one player’s performance against Aston Villa, admitting that watching the game brought back memories of his own unforgettable days at Old Trafford.
Valencia was so impressed that he revealed he went back to rewatch the entire 90 minutes, something he says he had not done in a long time. According to the former United captain, the player’s technical ability, intelligence, close control and overall influence were simply outstanding.
He even went as far as comparing the performance to prime Carlos Tevez, praising the player’s incredible work rate, movement, creativity and determination.
Valencia reportedly rated him 9/10, describing him as the best performer among all 22 players on the pitch and the biggest reason Manchester United dominated Aston Villa despite the disappointing draw.
What surprised him even more was that the player was not awarded Man of the Match, despite what he considered a truly exceptional display.
The comparison with prime Tevez is certainly massive praise. United fans know exactly what that means: relentless energy, fearless attacking football and a player who gives absolutely everything for the badge. 🔥
ONE PERFORMANCE, ONE MASSIVE STATEMENT! 👀🔴
