no wonder they are crap, they play with the referee instead of their opponents😆
Bruno amazing personality I love him to bits..
This interviewer legit looks like a vampire
Serious question. Where do you get your interviewers from?
When he talks about the defence and Martinez you can tell he genuinely knows just how shit Maguire is.
I will always love Bruno for acknowledging his faults. Everyone bashes him but he accounts for it. My captain 👏🏾
My captain
This is my captain
Too emotional and severely overrated as a footballer. He should not be the captain.
As United fan i want this type of personality in players at United. He just gets it.
This is another level of class.
Scumbag of a player…
I saw Marcus Rashford also not selfish anymore, I love it. Football is not about playing with star players or Star players scoring, it's all about whole team play so give assist when someone easy to score. Thank you bruno
There's mutual maturity and hunger in the team and Bruno is just a sign of that .
MY CAPTAIN [C]
Bruno the referee specialist , no top player relies on the referee in games than him
I'm being pedantic but Bruno had a 2v1 vs Brighton last season and he scored but he too could've passed to Ronaldo. it happens. as long as they score, it's not a big deal
Mark Goldbridge gets McGuire Tattoo !! https://youtu.be/rCUyX9BbkqM
he's letting everyone know he's the right man to be captain 👏🏿
Why does he have to deflect and mention other players? This guy is not caption material. I will not be brainwashed by the media. He's won nothing in his career and as soon as ten Hag gets a real no10, he will be gone! https://youtu.be/PiVcquooR18
This man deserves to wear the armband idc about his 'moaning' n 'throwing his arms about' it proves that he cares which couldn’t be said for loads of the players last season🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️when he first came in he was unreal n even if he isn’t putting up those same numbers rn he’s contributing more with his effort off the ball n build up play anyway✅✅he’s formed a really good partnership with Eriksen also n hopefully they keep it up throughout this long old season🙏🏾🙌🏾
CLASS!
MY CAPTAIN❤❤❤
I think bruno will not only be a captain, but even a manager…. He always talks about creating space, mentality….. May be man utd manager after 15 years
Bruno is 200 IQ
Bruno you’re wrong. I knew we would beat Liverpool. I was the only one but I believed it because I am a idiot
That interviewer definitely has children locked in his basement
The bloke is a total whinging piece of shit on the pitch constantly moaning at the refs, I hope one chins the little coward he is a disgrace.
Bruno throwing strays everywhere loooooooool
