Will Bruno achieve legend status at utd?

Isnt Legend suppose to have a real heavy meaning?

Not close imo. Very far from it.

He's better than Nani, many will disagree but thats because Nani has now retired and looked at with red tinted glasses.

You dont receive legendary status whilst your still playing because your presently analysed rather than analysed of performances of the past.

Just wait until Bruno retires & he will gain some respect for his performances for United.

Is Nani a legend though? He is in a throwaway, casual sense, but not a proper one.
Bruno's biggest issue is also his greatest strength. He is the best of a bit bunch in a period were the club was irrelevant in the footballing sense.

Wider point but Ferdnades and even arguably Rashford have better players for United than Nani was by almost every possible individual metric.

We overrate players from the past based on the success of the team.

As I said earlier in the thread, legend should be used to describe only about 20 players from our entire history.

Well for me thats what makes him a legend but its all personal. Because he has been the best player during a time the whole team has been been rubbish. Expecting him to win a title by himself whilst he plays with poor players and poor managers is not his fault.

Whilst he is also not a great captain, he has also been our best captain post SAF.

In my mind - a few legends of the top of my head are Keane, Scholes, Ronaldo, Rooney etc.

A level below that and who are not legendary status is Nani, Tevez & possibly De Gea (but for someone who only watched United from 1990's he is still our 3rd best keeper).

For me Bruno is a level above them & scratches his teeth in to the low level of legendary status because Bruno for a whilst has been our most important player - whilst the ones mentioned really wasnt especially considering they got to play under SAF aswell.

Maybe this is why some people have said that Bruno needs to win a title to achieve legendary status because he is kind of almost there & a bit like Kane needs to win a significant title at a top club to assemble a well rounded career.

Whether Bruno being our most important player because the rest of the squad is average is still a considerable argument - however that doesnt hide the fact that he has been the best player United have had in this decade of Post SAF retirement period which is the toughest ive ever watched.

Unless Bruno leads us to a PL or CL trophy lift, I don't see him every becoming a United legend. But he is a very good footballer.
