Carrick spoke to reporters after the final whistle and claimed that there is still a lot more to come from Yoro. Martinez will not be available for selection during Friday’s meeting with Bournemouth, providing another chance for Yoro to catch the eye.

Silvestre also shared his verdict on the player, expressing hope that he will be at the club for many years to come.
