BRUNO FERNANDES has faced a lot of criticism. An easy target for a team that has simply struggled far too much this season.
He's been accused of being too moody and too petulant to be a Manchester United captain. But this performance proved he's the leader that so many claim he is not.
This was a display to show why United and INEOS simply have to do what it takes to keep the Portuguese star happy.
This was a game from a player who deserves to be playing for such a better team. Fernandes penned an open letter this week, declaring his adoration for everything about United.
But in there was a clear message to the club that they must match his ambitions. Bring this squad up to his level or he will have to go elsewhere. A lot of United fans couldn't blame him if he did.
