They carry over to the league. I suppose to make sure they serve their ban.

OK cheers

 

[pocco]

Any rivers going around? Would be much appreciated!

yes please

 

[T00lsh3d]

Hope he doesn't play wife right. New signing needs to be given gametime in his preferred position. Portuguese posters have repeatedly mentioned that he struggles in the right for Portugal.

Giggsy in disguise?

 

[gulli_G]

Good to bed him in with technical players, who even though have not trained a lot together; can hopefully link a few moves that lead to some good goals.

 

[Red Dreams]

on NBC here.

We beat Burnley away last time on NBC.

 

[sglowrider]

It's not over hyping to expect at least a hat trick of goals and assists.

Its fans like you that is contributing to the rapid slide downwards of our beloved club. The expectations keep falling.
After a double hattrick, I expect him to go in goal and save a penalty against Adama.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Delighted to see Bruno... but why are Pereira and Mata both starting? Nonsense.

My Mata shall always play

 

[starman]

Looking forward to some 50 yard shots from Bruno

 

[FrankDrebin]

10/11 Not bad.

 

[Judas]

The cries of shoot every time he has the ball even in our own box.

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

Would have preferred to work Bruno in over the winter break but considering it's the Wolves, it's almost like playing in the Portuguese league with bad weather.

 

[barros]

I know we are short in modfield but whose wife do you think will play midfield??

 

[Rightnr]

Apparently, Bruno is starting in defensive midfield. We really do have a clueless manager if so.

 

[GDaly95]

Bruno should absolutely be alongside Fred.

 

[Hugh Jass]

I see Fred and Andreas as two holding midfielders, Bruno in front, Mata on the right, James on the left. I hope!

-----Adreas-----Fred-----
----------Bruno------------
Mata--------------James--
----------Martial------------

Hopefully.

 

[Judas]

As much as its not his best position, I'd still expect Bruno to do better in that role than Andreas, who has played there so many times and is always dreadful.

 

[FrankDrebin]

How do they know Fernandes is playing as a defensive midfielder.

 

[SER19]

Apparently, Bruno is starting in defensive midfield. We really do have a clueless manager if so.

He's starting beside Fred. He's an 8. I don't know how this is remotely controversial. He seems to literally be playing his position. Like maguire at centre back. Or Shaw at left back.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Technically it's a double pivot and the more defensive minded will drop deeper, in this case most likely Fred the Destroyer

 

[Irrational.]

Adama Traore to turn on beast mode today, as he usually does.

 

[SER19]

No he's playing right wing I heard. Swapping wings during match with wan bissaka on the left

 

[Berbaclass]

This.

Feed him to Shaw

 

[Berbaclass]

Adama Traore to turn on beast mode today, as he usually does.

Just like when we beat them a few weeks ago. Oh wait...

 

[Peyroteo]

Yeah you don't seem to be playing Bruno in his proper position in the slightest. Why play him together with Mata and Pereira?

 

[FrankDrebin]

Fernandes is not a number 10. I thought we established this.

 

[Rampant-red]

I cannot wait to see Bruno in a United shirt. Hope he plays a stormer.

 

[Le Red]

Hope he doesn't play wife right. New signing needs to be given gametime in his preferred position. Portuguese posters have repeatedly mentioned that he struggles in the right for Portugal.

I've seen a couple of matches that he played in that position. Ridiculous choice that. He did look dangerous whenever he drifted to the middle.
Seems some managers would benefit from that toddler game where they have to fit a piece in the correct hole.

 

[FrankDrebin]

I hear Fernandes is playing as a left wingback.

 

[FrankDrebin]

Also playing rush goalie.

 

[SCJY]

I think there is more expectation placed upon bruno's shoulders than any other player in the last decade.

It's more hope than anything, because we're also at our lowest point in the last decade.

We need a bit of light. Come on BRUNO!!!

 

[red_de_pologne]

There’s literally noone else to play him with

Love this!

Mata and Bruno in our starting eleven? There will lots of creativity and opportunities for Martial and James to score.

Mark my words. Mata will look twice the player now he has a proper footballer alongside him in midfield.

 

[Brwned]

You're being disingenuous. Lampard was a midfielder but playing in a midfield two he was always much worse than playing in a three with freedom to attack. Fernandes has primarily played the same way so there's legitimate concern about whether we've bought another player that doesn't fit into our setup and we're going to try and reinvent him.

Fred does get through an awful lot of work but he's not a defensive midfielder who can carry the midfield singlehandedly. Fernandes will need to be very responsible or we'll be vulnerable. Nice to have someone with creativity from deep though!

 

[Dante]

I wouldn't be against us playing 4-2-2-2

A midfield of Fred and Pereira is very open. Packing the middle might help.

 

[bondsname]

What a fecking jinx.

He doesn’t have to be Paul Pogba, but just hope he has a bit of intelligence about him, we’ve too many brain dead players that routinely make terrible decisions on the pitch.

 

[Amarsdd]

I'm watching The Kick off live (True Geordie) and they always bring in doom and gloom banter United fans in everytime who agrees to their crews banter against United. Esp. after they had Adam McKola who actually stood up for United in the show and didn't go on with their banter, and he hasn't been on the show since.
