Manchester United reserves coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has likened Antonio Valencia to David Beckham.
Solskjaer benefitted from Beckham's pin-point delivery during his career and says United's strikers are now enjoying the same service from Valencia.
He told the Manchester Evening News: “Antonio is a striker's dream. He is also a manager's dream.
"He works hard and he does his bit defensively. He doesn't just do the flash bits. He keeps the team shape when he doesn't have the ball and attempts to win it back.
"He has something special because he has pace and he has a delivery.
“I can understand the comparisons between Becks' service and what Antonio is providing now. The work ethic of both players is the same. Their first thought is to put in a dangerous effort for the strikers to feed off.
"Just like with David, you know when Antonio is going to cross the ball. He doesn't dilly-dally, as soon as he can, he is going to cross it. He puts his head down and you know it is going to come in.”
