INFO:
José Herrera is a former defensive or central midfielder who could also play as side-back and occasionally centre-back. He had his best time at Cagliari from 1990 to 1995, making 164 appearances and scoring 15 goals. He also played for Peñarol and Atalanta among others. He capped for Uruguay 57 times, scoring 4 goals.
Herrera was a versatile and unselfish player, gifted with great class, good feet and tactical awareness. He always found his place in the field and helped his teammates find theirs. He had very good passing ability and was praised for his outstanding determination, aggressiveness and ablity to push forward to create scoring chances or deliver powerful long range shots that often beat the goalkeeper. He wasn't the typical old-school defensive midfielder who only recovered the ball for the entire match. Moreover, he was a good set piece taker as some of his goals came from free kick and penalty. And despite being a midfielder for Cagliari, he often played as side-back or centre-back with man marking tasks for Uruguay.
