I guess you dont see it at first because of the sad face, but he has quite an attitude

Approaching Cantona stature. Lift up the team's moral, that we can beat anyone. Just because we have him.

Could've scored 2 if Martial and James weren't so selfish. :(
Certainly could have been more involved if our forwards had more footballing IQ. There were a handful of occasions when they could have passed to Fernandes and then made their own run. Fernandes would have found them back easily with a pass. And of course that time Martial could have squared the ball to Fernandes.

Always got into the perfect position for a cut back, could easily have gotten 2 goals today if james and martial had seen him.

Hopefully just a case of everyone learning to play that ball instinctively, he'll be banging them in all day

Really been a catalyst to our transformation recently. Makes some great late runs. Rest of our players need to start looking for the pull back as Bruno is in acres of space there a lot of times.

The budding Bruno and Martial bromance is beautiful. It's translating to the pitch and you can see Martial getting better with him.

Brilliant player who's lifting everyone around the ground.

Telling Pep to shut up
He's really doing everything right to become a fan favourite. If we had another player on his wave length we could have had a couple more today. Martial and James (x2) both missed glorious chances to lay one on for him.

He's been immense. I really hope he gets even better when the players finally start understanding him better.

This man. What a revelation. What a player. What a player we have got! Two more players like him and we are fighting for the top spot again!

Bruno really is a cut above. When you think of what clubs have paid for players like Coutinho and others to play the role Bruno played today, €47m or whatever it was is a steal. So clever, always taking up good positions, always pressing, chasing, talking.

Thanks f-k for Sporting! They have been really good to us over the years for players, eh?

And his work rate is immense. Closing down like mad man up front. It rubs off others too, when you start seeing Martial run around pressing Gk.

Not just the cut backs. There was a break we had where he was in a great position for the through ball but James - who in fairness did well until the final ball - couldn't find him.

He’s a fiery devil isn’t he? I saw that incident when it happened......I laughed hard.

there’s nothing better than a man that’s been here a couple of months giving attitude to pep and telling him to shut up. Instant legend status.

It's massive for Martial who aint your typical CF, Bruno enables him to play as a forward the way he wants to. Great to see.

Fantastic again. His run for 70-80 yards only for Dan James (who played well today) to fail to spot him for a tap in.

His movement to get into tap-in positions is phenomenal.

He is the brain of the team, everything goes through him. When Rashford is back, we will have awesome counter attacking team.

He’s quite quick, isn’t he? Not a speed demon or anything, but he’s definitely mobile. Really has it all to his game.

The lad's a quantum computer. Pretty much every decision spot on from him.

It's so great how he can trigger Martial to instantly return to scoring form by just spontanic mild pass from the free kick.

So much for all of the "he can pass in Portugal, but will he be able to pass in England" bullshit

I love him . Unbelievable player city tried to shut him out of the game but he is just too good. Should have 1 or 2 himself if balls had of been squared to him . Always in good positions
