Bruno Fernandes Has Been The Flop Of The Season – Emile Heskey

Ex-Liverpool striker, Emile Heskey has come out to say that Bruno Fernandes has been the flop of the season. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, he expected more from the Portuguese midfielder this season, and he has lacked the drive and leadership his teammates and fans expect from him this term.

Heskey added that a leader should lead from the front and set the standards for others to follow, but Bruno hasn’t.

His words, “Bruno Fernandes. I’ve seen the seasons gone by where he’s scoring, and he’s really been carrying them a little bit. With the captain’s armband as well, you’re expecting a little bit more. He can’t do it on his own, I get that, but as a captain, I want to see a bit more drive. I want to see a bit more leadership. I don’t think he’s given that. For a captain, one good performance like he produced against Liverpool in however many is not good enough really. The minimum for any player is to run around, tackle, be aggressive. The captain has to do more, he has to lead from the front and set the standards for others to follow. I don’t think he’s necessarily been that. It’s been a tough season for them, hasn’t it? I don’t know even where to put my finger on why it’s all gone so badly. It’s not just like one bit, everything’s just capitulated. It’ll be interesting to see what the future looks like under Ruben Amorim. They had a really good result against Liverpool, and yes, they probably could have won it at the end with the Maguire chance. But all in all, Liverpool squandered a few chances as well.”

WOW.

Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.

Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.

Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.

The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992, beating Nottingham Forest 1–0 in the second to win that competition for the first time as well.
