The Argentine has been in magnificent form lately and has helped Barcelona reclaim top spot in La Liga, as well as guided them through to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
The Spaniard revealed that he is a huge Messi fan, and also shared that watching the Argentine in full flight sometimes gets him emotional.
He told the Daily Star, "The last time I cried? I almost cried watching Messi against Man City. He's so good!
"But anyway, I get emotional very easily and excited easily, not only with the major teams.
"I'm a classic man and I was delighted when we played against Yeovil Town (in the FA Cup) in front of 8,000 standing people yelling at me: 'Who are you?'"
Herrera played against Lionel Messi a few times in his career when he was still with Athletic Bilbao in La Liga.
