Man United are having their worst ever Premier League season, finishing 14th in the 28th round. If they had not won the Europa League this season, since the Premier League era began, the Manchester "Red Devils" would have had such a miserable ending.
However, not everything at Old Trafford is bad at the moment. One of the rare bright spots is captain Bruno Fernandes. He was the one who had a sad free kick to bring the opening goal for Man United. In the match against Everton on February 22, the Portuguese midfielder also had a free kick to reduce the gap to 1-2.
Bruno was the first player to score a goal in 3 years at Man United, since his compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo did so against Norwich in 2022. It is easy to understand that when he scored, the emotions exploded to the end for the captain himself and tens of thousands of spectators at Old Trafford.
Since the beginning of the season, Bruno Fernandes has had 7 goals and 7 assists in the Premier League. If including the striker position, only 12 players in the tournament currently have this index better than Bruno.

Up to Bruno Fernandes' goal, Man United had almost no notable shots from Arsenal's goal. If there was, it was just an unsuccessful attempt on the last span by Alejandro Garnacho when he wanted to pass the ball to Joshua Zirkzee.
Bruno's goal, in addition to being well-technicated, also showed the midfielder's good observation. Realizing that the free kick bar seemed longer than usual, the Portuguese star took the initiative to shoot with great force, pointing the ball straight into the far corner. In this situation, David Raya stood quite a distance from the opposite golf course, so the Spanish goalkeeper could not fly in time to block him. Thereby, he was the basis for a masterpiece.
The Arsenal game once again showed Bruno Fernandes' ability to cover the pitch and multi-purpose. When attacking, he will be arranged in the position of the attacking midfielder behind the spearhead striker. When defending, the Portuguese midfielder paired Casemiro to create a solid shield in front of the defense. On a day when Casemiro played well, Bruno also breathed easier and reduced the defensive burden.

Bruno is a player who helps Ruben Amorim play and check. The 3-4-3 formation has not been able to be applied at Old Trafford, so Amorim needs to rotate tactics in every situation on the field. In Man United's current squad, only Bruno Fernandes is a versatile player, able to play in all positions on the pitch, except for defenders and centre-backs. Therefore, the importance of the "Red Devils" captain midfielder is increasingly enhanced, especially in times of turmoil like this.
