Bruno Fernandes Out?

I feel bad for him. It looks like he’s willing to sacrifice his next two years of his career not winning major trophy by putting his full commitment with us.

We can’t complain this commitment from him. A true captain. Hopefully, we can give him something he deserves.
 
So, his uptick in form is him playing for new contract.

I'd rather he stay with us, but if anyone is offering big money, we cash out. We aren't offering him a new contract, especially not a bigger one.

We cash out on the one remotely creative midfielder ee have and then spend similar (If not more) to replace him?

When we have bazillion other positions we need serious upgrades at!
 
I don't mind paying him more if it's heavily incentivised. Anka was mentioning on the athletic podcast that Varanes contract was a base of 215, but win and a clean sheet got him to that 300+ mark. No problem if that's how he achieves his big bucks.
 
Agreed and he deserves more respect and support from the knobs who get wayyy too upset at him “being whiny”. Give me 11 “whiny” players with his work rate, consistency, attacking output and fitness.

Bruno fan but this season the petulance has got my on nerves. I can't help thinking a top manager like SAF would iron that out of his game, as inevitably when he starts complaining he loses composure and his game and consequentially the team suffers.

Im not so sure.

Think of Roy Keane and cantona. Both liable to explode and cause big issues. Cantona missing half a season, keane missing games for a book that said he wanted to do in Haaland. Rio Ferdinand missing a season for missing a dope test.

Whining in games is a price SAF would accept for the kind of output Bruno gives us.

If you think about it, is whining really that bad ? He’s not taking bites out of players or kung fu kicking anybody. I really feel too much is being made out of it.
 
We should only entertain a very big offer from Bayern which includes them buying Sancho too... try and take advantage of them being the only bundesliga club with money. Sure we don't want to lose Bruno, but I'm some fantasy world where they offer over 100m for him and Sancho then we'd have to take it.
 
I’m glad we aren’t selling him.

I don’t think we’re close to being ready.

Next summer however (depending on how Mount settles) we might be in a position to entertain a stupid bid.

I dont understand this kind of thinking to be honest we aren't exactly talking about a player who has been instrumental in achieving great things at United , truth to be told all things considered he has hardly moved needle at United if decent offer arrives I say thank him for his services and move on .
 
I think we are tactically stuck in the way we want to play if Bruno stays because he can only play in one position.
I don’t think him leaving is the end of the world. I know many people don’t want to hear this argument but our biggest failing as a team is our inability to have any meaningful possession or territory.
For all his qualities, he’s a reason we fail in that department.if a big fee comes, we should sell and completely rebuild that midfield.
 
I get frustrated with him all the time but that's just because i expect everything from our best player. World class unquestionably. Not a matter of should we sell but rather hope he stays.

I don’t think this fan base has the patience for us to sell a Bruno.

He definitely made Ole ball significantly better. He’s also incredibly creative.

If you get stupid money for him then fair enough.

Don’t hugely disagree. I just don’t think this summer is the time to make that change.
 

I really like Bruno but he's got two years left on his deal and though he ended the season well, it wasn't the best campaign from him and that's been the story these last few seasons. Why should/would the club want to offer him better terms, bearing in mind he is already earning £240k? He can do the PR spin like Herrera did but if he moves for money, he moves for money and we will have more ability to spend.
 
If we get a good offer, one which you'd be mad to turn down, then we'd obviously have to consider it.
 
We will get to see what INEOS are made of this summer. Plenty of case studies to dissect involving Bruno, Sancho, Greenwood, EtH.

Will be interesting to see how they operate.

But Bruno shouldn’t be rewarded for an 8th place finish and a badly run dressing room. Rashford’s form and contract aligned perfectly last summer to get himself a fat packet. Sadly for Bruno his situation is not as strong so INEOS have no need to bow to him.
 
Quite surprised that he is looking for a new contract when he has two years remaining on his with an option for another season. I guess his agent is trying to make up for the 25% reduction in wages due to no CL football. Hope Ineos tells him to feck off. Let him go to Saudi for 70m+ if he is adamant on a new contract.
 
Sure thing, but the replacement better be really feckin good, or we're heading into mid table fast.

They don’t have to be really good, but they have to fit a style of play.

Bruno for all his chances created etc is only good on counter attack football and is often quite terrible when trying to play actual football.
 
I think United would be mid table even with him, tbh.
We aren't going to be a success anytime soon and INEOS know that. If we get a great offer, take it.
 
Would be interesting if we got £100 million plus offer. And signed Olmo . But huge risk. He is probably the only world class footballer we have at the club.

Indeed hes the best player in the world, irreplaceable, we have been so great since we signed him and we're currently so much higher than mid table right now
