@FrankEra_@StevenRailston Oh come on 🤣🤣 - are we supposed to get excited about anonymous comments that anyone could make up.??
Let's just see how he does - don't put unnecessary pressure on him - and if he turns out great let's celebrate it then.
As a Bruno fan, I know what level he had to reach before his performances were rightly recognized.
In the 2024-25 season, he created the most chances like a no. 10, played the most progressive passes like a no. 8, and was amongst top 3 for ball recoveries as a no. 6. These ranks weren’t United ranking, this was amongst all players in the PL. Do you realize how crazy these stats are? I don’t think this has ever been done or anyone is ever going to do it. He wasn’t even nominated for the best player award. He was not even part of the team of the season.
My man had to make history by breaking the assist record for people to recognize his performances. I have rarely seen a more consistent performer at his level. One of the absolute best this league has ever seen. Now he is part of the history books as the 2025-26 PFA Player of the Year.
@SwedishRumble Been thinking the same.
Kinda hope he doesn't grow much taller and stays lean too else it could change his balance a lot.
Not being tall didn't bother Messi or Giggs too much.
@FPLfrasier Against Hull Bruno, Tielemans, Cunha, and Maz were definitely not match sharp, having only had a couple of weeks of pre-season.
But that's where you need the players who had a full pre-season to step up. But they didn't. I'm thinking of Maguire, Shaw, Mbuemo + Dorgu especially.
@SwedishRumble I agree 100% with your point about playing the same players who have failed over such a long time.
I'd add Dalot to the list though - he's been a United player longer than Shaw.
@Muppetiers Too many players at United who think they are better than they are, and think they can get away with putting in less than 100% against what they think are "lesser" teams and players.
Been happening for years. Sick of them.
@Alisdair_0204@MartienBall Yeah it was the board that made him go out drinking all night in Belfast too.
And phone in sick and miss training the next day.
And lie about it when found out.
And told him just to stroll about on the pitch when he did bother to actually turn up.
@Muppetiers BIG FACTS
- PL starts tonight and United haven't added to their squad from last season. Just replaced Case and the injured Ugarte.
- Oh and a backup GK to replace Bayinder who they have to send on loan cause they can't sell him. Oh & new GK has a medical issue and unavailable
