Will Bruno achieve legend status at utd?

[CloneMC16]

He's the only current United player I feel sorry for because he deserves better than the players he has to work with. He'd have looked right at home in any of Fergies teams

Would have loved to see Bruno play in our team during 06-09. He's as good as the players that played during those seasons, and would have deserved to experience the success those squads did.

Still don't think he'll be counted as a legend, due to no major trophies. It's a shame. He'll be remembered fondly by the fanbase. He was one of the only shining lights during this banter period. His form for 18 months after signing was absolutely ridiculous.

Le Tissier.

He never wanted to leave Southampton. He obviously would have if he wanted to. The other guy comparing Bruno to Nani and Fortune is wild, though.

I hate fans who hate Bruno.

One of the best players ever for United.

It's weird that legends are made for some by trophies they have won.

Trophies are won by teams, not individuals.

Also, if legends are only won by trophies then all clubs on the bottom half of the tables in any league would technically have no legends because they never win trophies.

I also don’t understand fans who hate Bruno. But to say he’s one of our best ever players is laughable and actually disrespectful.
A great player in a poor United side? Absolutely and after he leaves us he’ll be remembered more fondly by the haters.
But one of our best ever? No chance.

 

[G97]

Not a chance. Not even a dream. United have has so many legendary players, great players, good players. Bruno may fit in last category here if debatable. But not legend.

Macari
Stapleton
Moses
Bruce
Pallister
Ince
Mcclair
Whiteside (arguably)
Mcgrath
Olsen
Strachen
Sharpe
Kanchelskis
Butt
Sheringham
Yorke
Stam
Tevez
Park
Brown
Evans
Carrick

Non of these and more are legends at United. Bruno isn’t even close to being best player on this list.

Genuinely the first fan I’ve ever come across who wouldn’t class Carrick as a club legend. An ever present and pivotal player to 5 prems and a champions league…

Tevez? Really? If he ever returned to Old Trafford he'd be booed.

 

[BorisManUtd]

I consider De Gea a legend and felt for him having to bail us out for years but he at least won the title in his 2nd season. Bruno has few cups and given he's 31 you really don't expect him to win the league with us even if we were to achieve that in 3/4 years (and no one can be confident of that happening). Shame we couldn't get Europa in 2020 or 2021. This year you wouldn't bet on us either.

 

[G97]

Tevez? Really? If he ever returned to Old Trafford he'd be booed.

Ince too. Celebrated like an absolute Cnut at the Kop end when he thought he’d stopped us winning the treble in 99.

This poster had a mare putting those two in the same category as Michael Carrick and Wes Brown.

 

[OverratedOpinion]

He is a Utd legend.

 

[MalaysianRed7]

I don’t think he personally can do any more in terms of improving his performance level. It’s now up to the club to build around him and enable him to take us to a league or Champions League title such that people see him as a legend. Unfortunately, he’s already 30, so I think we’ve run out of time for him to become one. It’s genuinely sad because I love the player and man that he is.

 

[FriedClams]

You need to win a lot more than 1 fa cup and 1 league cup to even be talked about as a legend of any club.

 

[Isotope]

Don't know if he's United legend or not, but he's definitely one of my all time favorite United players.

 

[DrRodo]

Considering we currently are, at best, a midtable club now (despite many of you thinking We DeSerVe troPhiEs because some sort of divine heir) he's absolutely a legend and i feel sorry for the lad to having to drag these lot of players who can't make 5 yard passes

 

[G97]

No, it's a sign of the club in a bad position. It doesn't mean that fans' standards have slipped. Everyone wants us to be back challenging for the big pots but that's quite frankly not possible at the moment. So this is what we've got.

So you don't think Kane is a spurs legend, le tissier is a saints legend etc?

What spurs and Southampton consider legends isn’t a measuring a stick for what a club like Manchester United consider club legends. We’ve had a large bunch of players who have won 5+ league titles. Those clubs haven’t got that…
Le Tis kept Southampton in the top flight against all the odds and Kane’s goals kept Spurs as a stalwart Top 4 club. Bruno hasn’t elevated us to anything.

No player post Ferguson - to now - will ever be in a discussion for being a United legend, not even close. Bruno will be remembered as a good player when we were shite and that’s it.
No sane person would put Bruno in a bracket with Charlton, Robson, Cantona, Giggs, Scholes etc.

I don't think so. He is a "moments" player with great stats; can be garbage in several games but in some of them will produce an important goal or assist. Stats can decieve.

His biggest problem is that he gives the ball away too much meaning he can't really control games and also he is really easy to play against. Best amongst a bad bad bunch but not good enough for Ferguson's best teams.

Shame, Kane must not be a Spurs Legend

 

[Tallis]

He wouldn't though. We never played with a classic 10 under SAF. We tried to with Veron but failed. And dont tell me Bruno is better than Veron.

I don't think this should be a debate at all. Bruno is way better than Veron. Whatever Veron did for Lazio doesn't matter for me - if you look at their Man Utd performances, its night and day.
