Bruno Fernandes - United Legend?

The guy gets a lot of stick but heโ€™s surely at legend status now? And I mean in the same kind of category as Mark Hughes, Steve Bruce, Ji Sung Park (ie, not top tier but the one below).

He joined us at our lowest ebb for some time and has been the difference between us being quite shiiit and godawful. Heโ€™s single handedly carried us through games and been our most consistent player over the past 5 years.

I have high hopes for him under Amorim and we might dare I say it see an even better version of Bruno when in a side that doesnโ€™t need to rely on him so much and he has the freedom to really flourish.

So yeah, I think heโ€™s reached legend status when doing it in an arguably harder environment than previous legends.

Lol... Since whem has the qualifications of been there, done that experiencue been a factor in one's percieved football knowledge? Many fans who have had zero experience of playing the game at any half-decent, organised level, and even dont watch many games, still think that their football.opinion is more valid than some ex professional, elite and international players who become commentators, journalists and punters.

Tbh does playing the game make you more knowledgeable than someone who watches and analyses?
I've been playing football for 30 years, some of that at semi pro level, and some of my opinions on football are terrible
Most the bad ones are driven by emotion, to be fair.

Tiers for legends

Bloody hell.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I know ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

It's right up there with "being a bit pregnant".

Ffs

You are aware the greatest manager to ever live also argued that he has tier system when it comes to world class. I suppose he is a fool too and you are more qualified than him. Youtube is your friend where he names only 7 players he considers "world class"
----------------------------------------------------------------------

We're not talking about world class, the thread is about whether Bruno's a club legend.

It's subjective and perfectly ok some will say he is, others say he isn't, that's football. Personally I don't think he is.

But to suggest there are tiers is farcical. And if you have to invent them to shoehorn a player in then it's probably best to say the player isn't.
