Problem?
Absolutely love everything about this man. What a player!
A perfect start for Bruno, he was combining well with Pogba and Mason and bagged a quality hat-trick with the 3rd goal being the pick of the bunch for me.
Does anyone know the points per game before and after signing bruno for ole?
Hopefully he continues with this goalscoring. This is more like the Sporting Bruno if I am not mistaken
Is Bruno a God? I mean, a for real God, with thunder and lightning and togas and massive white beards and stuff.
No, don't laugh it off. You know it's totally possible.

Old post, but still made me chuckle.
Surely that's a joke?
On course for 114 PL goals this season.
He's a bit rubbish isn't he. Just a stats player
Had 1 preseason game and just comes in and bosses the game. Love this guy.
Cheers mate
Surely that's a joke?
All he does is score loads of goals and grab assists.He's a bit rubbish isn't he. Just a stats player
What was his pass completion today?
Bruno is money. Can't remember the last time someone came to United and had this sort of impact from Day 1. Have to go way back...
That volley when he smashed it first time from the throw in and switched the play to another side was a thing of beauty in itself. Just showed his level of confidence.
Fecking hey!
Sell him!
He's the closest thing we'll ever get to the second coming of the greatest centre forward that the world has ever seen.
Decent performance today, but hasn't quite scaled the heights of Jack Grealish...
Hilarious to think some posters on here were saying we're better off as a team without him. The belief Bruno singlehandedly brings to this team is invaluable!
Not too far. RvP is up there.
So Bruno first game for United… 3 goals. Jota first 30 minutes for Liverpool… goal. One was benched for his last 2 games and the other was terrible the entire Euros.
I fecking hate Santos, he is criminally destroying this generation of players, cannot wait for @Peyroteo excuses regarding Qatar WC where he will explain to everyone here that’s not Santos fault, we aren’t entitled to win more than 1 game in 90 minutes in any international competition because we aren’t Brazil or Germany.
I will repeat again. Feck off Santos and all his apologists, from now on I won’t watch Portugal with that clown as a manager.

Top banter from Maguire.
This guy is suggesting that Bruno is actually Eric Cantona regenerated.
I mean, you've never seen them in the same room, right? Maybe, just maybe.
Anyone who dislikes Bruno is a fake fan in my estimation either a rival fan being salty pretending to be a United fan or some strange plastic fan its impossible not to love him!
True but RvP was already in EPL and a known commodity.
My favorite united player of all time. Best player in the league followed by Pogba then Sancho then Grealish and I’m serious.
Sancho might still have a say in the order I listed. Loved his velvety touch and awareness… feck me… like Dortmund officials were rumored to comment… “we don’t think United realize what a good player Sancho is! .” When united seemed intent on nickel and diming and haggling endlessly for Sancho’s services.
Fantastic all around game.
It's not that straight forward though. In 70% of games, we more than have the quality for Bruno to play whenever he wants.
It's the other 30% of games when the going gets tough against resilient teams or when we're not up for it, not fresh and/or having an off day. The issue with having Bruno at 10/so far ahead is that we lose midfield control and we don't quite have the players or tactical set up unless we're asking the likes of Rashford/Greenwood/Sancho/Martial/Cavani etc to be more disciplined as it becomes a 4-2-4. As we've seen many times last season, what ends up happening is that you live and die by Bruno's risk taking.
I'm not against playing counter attack, ceding possession etc but you've got to careful for what you wish for and ensure if you are going to play a certain way, be fully invested in it. For Ole that means not shoe horning certain players in certain positions and being really tactically smart. It worked against Leeds today, where I was surprised with Biesla's naive approach again but like last season against Villareal, where the difference in fitness and quality is reduced after a long hard season (fatique/injuries etc), you can't just expect things to fall into play alone with individual quality. I don't want to be a downer but we've seen fantastic starts to the year with Mourinho and Ole before (both second season and after the Covid restart) but then as our freshness goes and teams counter-press and adapt, we've seen the drop-off.

Razor sharp against Everton and again today. Hat-trick, with no pens? You have to rate it. But in general, he was just sharp.
shit player, only scores penalties.
Didn't see a single post of that. But some criticism he really deserves. He was tired last season and we should manage his game time much better. Can we convince him to sit some games out though?
Seems like maybe the biggest problem for Solskjaer, the guy likes every minute..Superb hatrick and some nice pieces of play against the team who deserves to be smashed.
Did an ITW for french TV after the game and great words for Pogba as well. This guy is a true leader and good to have him back and happy after a horrible Euro where he looked miserable
He is fecking lethal and is the type of player that can have an unplayable spell where he can singlehandedly rip a side apart.
His runs and movement were absolutely on point. I think he can play false 9, not sure we would want him in that role though.
Big shout to Pogba who I thought was man of the match today though. Created chances for fun.

On a more serious note, he is one of the best signing any club could've hoped for and it didn't cost an arm and a leg for us either.
I don't know if I could be any more bullish with this player at this point short of starting to make ridiculous comparisons to GOATs.

That pass to AWB? yeh. It's like he has an eye on the back of his head.
Wow that's some strong feeling there - Portugal were certainly underwhelming in the Euros, so maybe a new coach is needed. Side note: I fecking love Lisbon. One of my last vacations before this stupid pandemic. Can't wait to go back again!
You'd have to be a pretty shit coach to make Bruno look like Donny tbf
