🚨🎙️🗣️ | Thierry Henry on Bruno Fernandes breaking the Premier League Assist Record:
🗣️ Henry: "Listen, we need to stop debating and start appreciating. What Bruno Fernandes is doing right now, on the verge of breaking the all-time Premier League assist record... it is simply 'magnifique.' To have that vision, that consistency in the final third, it’s not normal. People talk about statistics, but I talk about the *difficulty* of the pass. He sees things before the camera even pans to the runner.
And it’s not just the passing, is it? You see him stand over the ball 25 yards out and you already know the keeper is in trouble. For me, he is easily one of the best shooters in world football right now. He strikes the ball with such purity; it’s a gift. When you combine that elite finishing with the record-breaking creativity, you aren't just looking at a great player you’re looking at the clear PFA Player of the Year. He deserves that recognition, without question.
Looking ahead, if Portugal goes all the way and wins the World Cup, let’s be serious: Bruno has to be in that top five for the Ballon d'Or. He carries the weight of the game on his shoulders every single week. I’ll say it plainly anyone who doesn’t appreciate what this guy is doing, quite simply, they do not know ball. You have to respect the craft, and right now, Bruno is a master."
Mason Greenwood should honestly move on from anything related to English football… unless a miracle happens.
Over 30 goal contributions and still no call-up 🤯
Meanwhile, Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, and Dominic Solanke walk straight into the squad.
At some point, you have to ask… what more does he actually need to do? It’s not just frustrating — it’s genuinely sad 💔
