Ridiculous, isn’t it? Having to defend our most important player week after facking week.

He's just as detrimental to the team as he is productive.

I feel like you have slightly rose tinted glasses mate.

We’ll have to agree to completely disagree on that first point.

Since he joined, he’s been our leading goalscorer, our leading assister, our leading chance creator, our best presser, often our best midfielder in terms of ball-winning (led in interceptions and blocked passes again last season, second to Casemiro in tackles), our most prolific ball progresser, and probably our most available player.

If people want to overlook all of that because he gives the ball away trying Hollywood passes in a team built entirely for transition football and bereft of any other creative outlets, then that’s up to them.

Bruno ain't perfect, but there are so many bigger issues with this squad than Bruno. Ultimately, things would have been a lot worse overall without him than with him. There are very few players who I have less issues with than Bruno.

We all know he shouldn't be captain, but due to injuries and general availability, there hasn't been anyone else.

We have become overly dependent on him, especially after such a great start to his Utd career, probably more than what he is capable of, but that's more on the other players and coaching rather than him.

In the last 5 years, probably the only player so far than has been a good signing for us.

Fair enough.

Again, I'm not saying get rid and I agree we have other problems that need fixing way before Bruno, but there is no harm in pointing out his faults.

I am sure the powers that be are thinking about the club without Bruno as he isn't getting any younger. You'd like to think so anyway.

Well he's here for another 3 years so unless Saudi come in, he will be here short to mid-term.

I think playing less games will do him good, he's probably played more than most players in the past 5 years of any club. He's probably burnt out a bit tbh

Well, seeing as the majority of the others aren’t ever productive proves he’s one of our best 👍
