Gets way too much flack from United fans.
There's nobody in our squad that works as hard as him. I have never seen him laze around the pitch even in our darkest days under Ole/Ralf and he'll be the one chasing opposition all over the pitch. For that he gets a full 100 marks from me. His fitness levels are insane and fingers crossed they remain the same as we need him the most.
Yes he gives the ball away a lot sometimes cheaply. But he is insanely skillful and is the only player in our squad who can create something out of nothing. The amount of times he has set up Rashford/Garnacho this season is extraordinary and for the fact I am ok with him giving the ball away.
The guy oozes United through and through, is a gentleman away from the pitch, comes across as an intelligent human being and is a fun character to be around (as said by team mates).
Granted the guy is a caant on the pitch but he is our caant. Needs to get back to goalscoring though.

Forgot about Cavani, was Martial's good season during lockdown not when we finished 2nd?

It's the asterix season he was good in so doesn't really count.

Bruno does indeed get roasted by many on here.

Martial was actually pretty diabolical that season. But Cavani was brilliant.

Cavani was only good for about a 3rd the season tbf.

Btw being serious, I’ve never blamed Ronaldo for everything but it’s also no coincidence that our worst ever PL season happened with him as the main man and surely even his biggest fans can see that now. Even this season he has started in 50% of our defeats despite not playing since early November.
He was once my favourite player and I admire him for he’s done in his career but getting rid of him as well as bringing in ETH are the best things we’ve done in years.

I wanted to be wrong. I get plenty wrong but unfortunately always felt I’d be right here.

United fan's opinions typically aren't the best gauge of a player to be honest.
Hes elite. He doesn't lose the ball as much as people think, or at least he doesn't lose it at an abnormal rate for a player of his type. It's marginally more per 90 than KDB. Never see anybody say it about KDB and yet Bruno is commonly beaten with it. Perhaps it's because people don't watch as much football as they try to make out they do.

I get the feeling Bruno gives it away easier than KDB and messes up easier passes. He’s a great creator but he’s certainly not flawless.
