Bruno United
Pogba is more talented yes but Fernandes is a more productive and competitive player. Still time for Pogba to realise his full potential though.He's not even the best player in this very team.
Much more physicality IMO. Bruno always goes for a tackle.It's as if United have gotten a prime Chelsea type Juan Mata with a motor, little bit more physicality, bite, and maybe a little more quality as well.
This is terrific from Rio
Which is exactly why spending £80mil on an average CB will bite us. Wrong thread I know but I can’t help but think where we’d be had we been as prudent with our summer dealings as we proved with this one.And also there were questions about the portuguese league making him look better than he really is.
There are great players playing in Portugal/France/Holland
Think Sancho is nailed on for 7 if he comes. Maybe Fernandes will take 8?Its going to take me a while to get used to having a proper number 10. Wouldn't be the worst thing to give him jersey 7, he has auditioned for it and has the mentality to carry it. Sancho can get the 11.
I think 18 fits Bruno well. It was worn by legends such as Paul Scholes and Ashley Young, I see no reason to change it to a more "mainstream" number such as 8.Think Sancho is nailed on for 7 if he comes. Maybe Fernandes will take 8?
Tbf he played an outrageous amount of football that season. Whoscored is probably more accurate on the assist front - TM are very generous and give those ‘fantasy football’ type of assistsI'm convinced those Mata stats are not true, what is the source? No way did Juan Mata have 50+ goals/assists in 1 season.
In the PL only KDB really puts up these crazy numbers. Mata at his peak (as above) was doing alright. Ozil was setting assist tallies up for fun for a while, but nowhere near the goal threat.His productivity is insane. It was insane in Portugal and he’s kept it up here. Who was the last United player to score/assist this frequently without playing as a striker? Feck it. Who was the last PL non-striker to match him?
Please be a monster for us, please.
His goals and assists are one thing but his movement and work-rate are on another level as well. He moves teams/defenders all over the place, absolutely amazing player. Best we've signed for a long time.
Bruno 18 shirt for me on next years kit!
De Gea 2010.Best signing since Vidic and Evra I reckon.
He was signed in 2011.De Gea 2010.
De Gea 2010.
Yup, you are right.He was signed in 2011.

Villa game isn't till Thursday. I think he will be fine. PersonallyNeeds a rest soon surely. Maybe Pogba at 10 for Villa?
Which forum was that because on the main forum everyone thought we sold too cheapI saw in a Sporting Forum some fans laughing about how "they fecked us over" with this transfer. I Wonder what they be thinking now.

I was hoping for that today, tbh. But now it looks like Matic is knackered and needs a rest, which means that we might need Fred coming in in for him and Bruno and Pogba starting again.Needs a rest soon surely. Maybe Pogba at 10 for Villa?
Barca and others seem to have made a mistake overlooking him. We should extend his contact already!Not many of our big signings have come in and made this impact so soon that he has. RVP was probably the last one. Maybe Rooney before that.
I don't think there's an attacking mid anywhere in world football, other than KDB, who I'd swap him with. He's special.
We haven't got a game for 5 days.Needs a rest soon surely. Maybe Pogba at 10 for Villa?

The comparison with Mata (at his peak) is spot on though. Just that Bruno is bigger, better, and stronger.
