That jersey suits you…..might as well be one of us
Can the fans at Old Trafford add him to the large pantheon of Man United Legends 🙌
Man I had been dying to see Bruno back in the true 10 role with ruthless attacking players like Mbuemo and Amad, and he just didn't disappoint
He would have had this type of season long ago if it wasn't for the likes of Daniel James, Garnacho, Antony, Hojlund Sancho etc.
They said he was washed
Might be his best individual season but he'll have nothing to show for it come the end of the season. Unless Portugal do a Greece 2004
Amorim wasted him in the middle of the pitch.
He is a #10 not 6 or 8.
Massively underrated tbh
Amorim was really an idiot
Daily reminder that this channel published a video about how United shoot too much from range (based on bullshit statistics), then a couple of months later posted a video saying premier league clubs should shoot from range more 🤔
And he was playing as 6 in only 2 midfielder system just 3 games ago😂
Surprising people said he's their worst signing ever, if i am not wrong flex said that. People are entitled to theur opinions bust i personally feel he's been man utd's best player in the last decade. Again just my opinion.
What happened to pronouncing his name weird?
I believe he could reach 18 or less goals.. he’s currently at 5. I doubt he’d reach that many goals or even exceed his PR, though. Time will tell
Bruno Fernandes in his 6 years 1 month in the PL so far; 96 assists, 103 goals.
KDB in 9 years and 11 months: 170 assists, 108 goals.
These two are the best players in the EPL of this generation .
JJ seems to have developed a passion for United recently! Wonder what happened..
Too bad you can't downvote these
He's always been like this. The difference is now he actually has good players in front of him instead of the likes of Garnacho, Sancho, Hojlund, Weghorst etc
That record is cursed 😂😂😂😂
Ozil was on 16 in 18 games but failed to get it
Biggest United hater. We kept receipts JJ
Still think he’s overrated and United would be better without him JJ?
Please take our shirt off! You hate us make up things and use our name just for clicks. Remeber the video was it on our shooting
Probably the best in the entire world
If only he hadn’t have to suffer through the worst manager in United’s history, he would likely already have 20+
JJ why you sitting down bro?
It was obvious Fernandes needed to play as a number 10. I don't know what Amorim was thinking.
Bruno hater’s questioning their hate? Maybe? I don’t think so. Hater’s gonna hate no matter what.
That record is cursed. Bruno is my savior, my idol, my heaven and my earth, but he ain't breaking it
JJ Bull’s recent love of United is quite something
He was still game changing under amorim imagine without bruno
Bruno's always been the best. We just lacked quality finishers in attack. Now he has Cunha, Sesko, Mbeumo, Amad, Dorgu, Mount, et al.
Probably the best player in the league since Christmas.
Enough said. Call Amorim and sack him again
