Back to his best when used properly in front of a screening midfield and in classic #10 role.
The Bruno Fernandes appreciation thread.
- Thread starter simplyared
- Start date
Nice way to mark 250 appearances.
He needs to stop scoring and assisting. It's dragging us back.
Separately, he's just 1 goal shy of Beckham and being in the top 20 United scorers of all time.

He had an excellent game, but posts like these are silly because you're acting as if these games are standard for him, but the reality is that he had 1 goal and 2 assists in the league before today. That is not good enough. Luckily for us, he is finding great form now.
Him and Amad in the two behind the striker is going to be a delight to watch.
I'm actually seriously looking forward to that. One that is excellent creatively and can create out of nothing, and one that is brilliant in tight areas who can dribble and also fairly creative, but is more patience in his play. I reckon Amorim will play these two. If we can get Gyokeres in the summer, I think we can be really, really dangerous offensively.
I don't think they are silly, because they're clearly tongue in cheek. What you've said would be more appropriately applied to the absolute meltdown that happens when he's in a bad run of form. He has carried the team at times and we've reached a point where some phenomenal assists, or what should be assists only for players to miss, aren't even noticed any more. He is absolutely taken for granted by many, and yes, he had a very poor start to the season, but it was truly bizarre to not allow him the leniency of being in what was a hopelessly dysfunctional team as ten hag's reign neared its end.
More goals than Cantona. Nuff said
“Fernandes has been directly involved in 100 Premier League goals in 170 United appearances in the competition. That is only one more than Cristiano Ronaldo managed following his arrival at Old Trafford.” - BBC
But but he is an average player, not fit enough to tie the laces of the Odegaard or McAllister. Just shows how little some fans know thanks to the prejudice taught to them by the great Mark Goldbridge.
Bruno has been the single greatest player we have signed in the post Fergie Era who has consistently performed and why are only our players not allowed to have any slump in form, specially under Eric’s tactics. It’s not like KDB or Odegaard or any other AM have performed in every single match of their careers. I am sure even the greatest of players (other than Ronaldo and Messi) have gone through multiple stretches of bad form.
But yeah it’s hipster to hate Bruno, so carry on while he keeps on breaking all the good records.

So the United website has a big interview with him, and they've stuck it behind an MUTV paywall, the cnuts.
He’s reminiscing about his brief stint at Police Tero FC in parts.
