Bruno Fernandes has once again demonstrated why he is considered one of the most influential players in Manchester United's squad. With a recent goal in their 3-0 Premier League victory over Leicester, Fernandes has now scored five times in just one week. This remarkable form follows his hat-trick in the Europa League against Real Sociedad, which secured United's place in the quarter-finals against Lyon.

Fernandes' contributions this season have been nothing short of extraordinary. With 16 goals and 15 assists across all competitions, he has been directly involved in 31 goals, a feat only surpassed by Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland in the Premier League. Since his debut in February 2020, only Kevin de Bruyne has more assists in Europe's top five leagues than Fernandes.

Despite facing criticism from former United captain Roy Keane, Fernandes remains unfazed. 'I do things in my own way,' he stated. 'It's not nice to hear those things about you, but it motivates me to improve. I have huge respect for Roy Keane and accept there's always room for improvement in my game and leadership.'

United's manager, Ruben Amorim, has also praised Fernandes for his professionalism and impact on the team. 'He's a special guy,' Amorim remarked. 'He's always ready, can recover well, and is dangerous in every situation. His work ethic is exceptional, and he continues to surprise me with his performances.'

As Manchester United prepares for crucial upcoming matches, Fernandes remains focused on contributing to the team's success. 'I want to score as many goals as I can and assist my teammates,' he said. 'Getting on the edge of the box and scoring is one of my qualities, and I need to keep doing that.'

With his consistent performances and unwavering determination, Bruno Fernandes is proving to be an indispensable asset for Manchester United, silencing his critics and leading the team to new heights.
