He's a fraud and the morons who suck him off deserve this garbage football

Look at the possession we had in the rest of the game. And the turnovers. Most of them came from him.Go look at United's goals today. And the chances.everything came from him.
you're right it just updated for me nowWrong. 59%. 20/34.
Yeah go look at all the good things he did in a game where we were dominated at our own turf for 75 minutes. Just go look!Go look at United's goals today. And the chances. Everything came from him.
Pretty sure they didn't.All goals came from him.
We lose games because of him. He's just a liability.Go look at United's goals today. And the chances. Everything came from him.
Isn’t the one game he didn’t play in still our highest scoring win this season?I'd love to see us without him in that spot for a few games, his positioning is all over on the attack.
I thought Bruno had a decent first half, but very poor second. I want to make a point around the dummy you pointed out, as well as a number of other seemingly poor decisions he makes in terms of playing very aggressive passes leading to turnovers. I used to think that these are often examples poor decision making stemming from Bruno's desire to play very progressive balls whenever possible, and maybe there is some of that, but I also think this is a consequence of his inability to receive the ball in certain positions because of his physical weaknesses. In particular, Bruno is especially poor at retaining possession if a defender is tightly angled towards his side rather than his back, and I believe that he knows this. Which is why he either tries to get rid quickly (often times forward because its less dangerous), dummies blindly, or tries to win fouls (often with exaggerated dives).He needs to feck off with that dummy he keeps doing, that's twice he's done that and it's led to a dangerous break for the other team.
One of them - 3 nil vs palace.Isn’t the one game he didn’t play in still our highest scoring win this season?
Eh? We drew nil all against Liverpool.Isn’t the one game he didn’t play in still our highest scoring win this season?
It should be a fairly simple concept to understand though that having a main attacking player who doesn't give away 41% of his passes would ultimately lead to the rest of the team having the ability to create more chances overall.All goals came from him.
Yeah pretty much this. He's just too unpredictable for a top team in my opinion.Neither his best or worst performance for United. No one can deny that he’s a hard worker, but he has no ability whatsoever to control the tempo of the game. It’s one Hollywood ball after another. But some of the Hollywood balls are fantastic, which is the only reason his fame is what it is.
And we beat Palace 3-0.Eh? We drew nil all against Liverpool.
You liked his performance? Really, thats a shocker where you usually take every chance to criticize him. Wonder what his fans think. I mean, he had 100% aerial rate today - 1 attempt, 1 won. And another keypass, what a chance creation machineThought he played well today. All our attacks went through him. Also showed up a couple of his lazy teammates by running past them to win the ball back second half.
This wouldn't be as big of a problem, but we have a midfield and defence that can't defend big spaces, but with our team now it's far too risky and seems to always lead to a clear cut chance for the other team.I thought Bruno had a decent first half, but very poor second.

Not sure I'd agree entirely. I think in a better setup with a better manager/coach and with more possession, he would look a more lethal player. His forward balls would lead to more chances and then more goals. We create very little to begin with because we see so little of the ball, so the percentages are just so much smaller. All you need is one forward ball at the right time to get the assist. Our problem is the first step, actually getting the ball, and then getting the players into advanced positions to do something with it.Yeah pretty much this. He's just too unpredictable for a top team in my opinion.
I personally hate him closing down the goalie, It pulls him out of the middle. Today he was on the left for a while, Tottenham held the shape so it actually helped them.Neither his best or worst performance for United. No one can deny that he’s a hard worker, but he has no ability whatsoever to control the tempo of the game. It’s one Hollywood ball after another.

What were the other problems? Apart from set pieces.Him and Højlund were the least of our problems today. Good game or not, we 100% lose that game without those two.
The irony is that if you watched the game you'd have seen he created plenty of key chances. Unfortunately a few of his passes didn't have the right weight on them, which lowered his all-important pass completion percentage. So yeah, sell him.You liked his performance?
