Manchester United have not made a better signing than Bruno Fernandes in the past decade and so the possibility of the Portuguese dropping out of the starting XI may be unthinkable for many.

During a turbulent period for the club, the Portugal star has been a breath of fresh air. Since arriving at Old Trafford from Sporting Lisbon in 2020, Fernandes has scored 79 goals and provided 70 assists in 241 appearances.

There's no doubt United would have been far worse off over the past few years had they not signed Fernandes. However, after speculation over the summer that he could leave United, it's also fair to say he has had many off days this season, with the most recent being the 1-1 draw with FC Twente in the Europa League.

Erik ten Hag needs to stand by his captain. Yes, he has been poor this season, with no goals and just one assist in the league.
