BRUNO'S DEMAND

BRUNO FERNANDES says Manchester United cannot view this season as a success, despite securing a top-four finish and winning a trophy.

United guaranteed Champions League football for next season after beating Chelsea 4-1 at Old Trafford on Thursday.

Erik ten Hag also ended the club’s six-year wait for a trophy in his debut season by leading United to a 2-0 victory over Newcastle in the Carabao Cup final.

United can lift a second trophy – and wreck Manchester City’s bid to emulate their 1999 Treble – with victory in the FA Cup final a week today.

Despite that, skipper Fernandes said United cannot consider this season a truly great one because the demands at the club are so much higher.

Asked if the campaign constituted a success, Fernandes said: “No. It’s a positive season, but not successful, because success is different for this club and for us players it has to be, too.
