READ MORE NEWS ON: Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson
Manchester United bossSir Alex Ferguson reckons Anderson can become heir apparent to United legend Paul Scholes.
Scholes, 36, is in the twilight of his career and Fergie believes Brazilian youngster Anderson has what it takes to fill the midfielder’s boots.
Fergie said: “Anderson’s form has gone up a notch. I was delighted he signed a new contract before Christmas.
“He knows he should score more goals and if, and when, he does he, will undoubtedly become a top player.
“He is still only 22, he has electric pace from a standing start and great appetite for the ball, which he can work out of very tight situations.
“Opponents can never rest easy when he is buzzing around them.
“Injury to Paul has given him an extended run that he has grabbed and long-term I hope he can prove to be Paul’s successor.
“It’s a big ask to reach that level and the challenge will test his confidence, but someone will have to step up to the plate one day.”
