Bruno Fernandes has been one of Erik ten Hag’s stalwarts at Manchester United.
The Portuguese has shown his mentality time and time again and has brought the team forward.
Ten Hag made him captain, knowing his leadership qualities and passion for the club.
It’s safe to say that Bruno is currently one of the most important players on the team.
Since he signed in January 2020, the Portuguese has posted outstanding numbers.
His production of goals and assists is simply remarkable and he is a player who always produces something, even when he is not playing at his best level.
He is ranked among the top five players with more than 25 goals contributed in European competitions since his United debut.
Since he made his #mufc debut, Bruno Fernandes (25) is one of the five players who has been directly involved in more than 25 goals in the main European competitions along with Robert Lewandowski (37), Kylian Mbappé (33), Karim Benzema ( 27) and Mo Salah (27) ???? pic.twitter.com/22oAd6wi4w

The Portuguese has been one of United’s best signings in the post-Fergie era.
In United’s current setup, he is vital to Ten Hag’s organized pressing.
The Red Devils have vastly improved their pressing, and Bruno leads the way with his intensity and tenacity in midfield.
The 28-year-old is a constant threat in and around the box and is sometimes described as “inevitable” by fans for his tendency to register a goal or an assist.
He still has areas in his game that need to improve, namely his resistance to pressure and his decision-making.
Bruno has undoubtedly been one of United’s standout players this season and will be crucial in the closing months of the campaign.
