I couldn't care about VdBeek, I dont think he should play at 10 voor United, but at 8, so my feelings towards Bruno have nothing to do with Donny. Please read all my comments in the Donny threads and you'll see this is true..
Im also - again! - not saying Bruno isnt a good player, Im not doubting he is our best option on the #10 position.. But..... I think the praise he sometimes get here is not in line with his performances.. I dont feel he is a top 10 of the world player as for me he hasn't been decisive enough in bigger games (the same goes for Frenkie de Jong of which Im probably the biggest fanboy alive).. I havent seen him control big games for United in the CL or against top tier PL teams sufficiently to rank him amongst the best in the world..
How is that a irrational statement?
I can see where the Bruno love is coming from, because he was the light that came 1.5 year ago and he transformed a horrible United side at moment.. And he did so brilliantly and there is therefore no doubt also for me he is great player, but that doesnt mean you can keep having a critical perspective about his performances in big matches this season right?
And Im not saying he doesnt have it in him to dó become the big man in big games for us who puts in the performance to bring us a round further in the CL or to decide that win against City that keeps us above them... But he still has to show that if you ask me...
