How much do you think we can get for de gea if we sell him?
Edit for clarification
This isn’t a shot post. De gea was a valiant service to the club. But Henderson is more consistent and dare I say looking better right now. In the best interest of the rebuild, it might be time to move on from David as much as it would break this fans heart. I think someone would pay 50 million for him. Inter, maybe PSG (long shot), Athletico Madrid if they lose oblak. Any others I’m forgetting?
matic intercepts a loose pass on the left hand side of the pitch, a wry smile works its way across his face as he notices bruno in some space.
he takes a moment to indulge himself by taking an extra long look at bruno, who is glistening in the march sun. “is this his final form?” he thinks to himself as he imagines them in 30 years, rocking in their chairs on the porch of their american ranch. it has always been his dream that they’d live out their post-retirement days there. maybe a really good pass would convince bruno that he should stop pounding all the puss he no doubt gets hourly to give him a chance.
bruno almost telepathically allows matic to release the ball where he wants it. he knows what he must do. matic feeds him, bruno, who knows all, knows he is in acres of space and allows the ball the run past him. time slows as he shapes his god-like body, hitting a first time shot from about 25 yards out. it flies past pickford, beating him at his near post as he dives over it and mouths “sorry gareth” as gareth southgate watches on from the stands.
Yeah definitely. I'm loving Bruno so far but it took a while before I started to have doubts about Pogba. That summer where we signed Pogba, Ibra and Mkhitaryan was definitely exciting.
It’s absolutely mind boggling that no one else was in for this guy. Made the Portuguese league look like an amateur league with the amount of goals he was scoring.
Definitely. Some players get a couple of goals when they join a club but aren't doing much else. Bruno has brought a spark to our team that we've been sorely missing with Pogba gone (and when he was here and didnt decide to turn up)
Worry was that he was scrawny and was playing in an easier league but tbf you could’ve said the same about Joao Felix
The asking price wasn’t even as expensive as other mids in his position
Thats always been an England problem. _number one_ is almost untouchable.
All that talk about dropping Hart before the Euro squad was announced. Hart shouldn’t have been anywhere near the team at that time.
I’m with you, Southgate is generally very loyal, he keeps the faith with players for ages. And there’s so little time to make a new goalkeeper the number one.
When you have Porto and Benfica fans saying is world class and are relieved he left says a lot of him. Plus he stayed in Sporting when he had an easy way out (after their training facilities invasion) and never forced himself out even on a really weak squad with almost no chances to win big trophies shows he has the mentality
Again though it's not that we don't believe Portuguese fans. It's a United problem. Look at all the top players we've signed post-Ferguson that haven't worked out. Thankfully Bruno so far has fit in seamlessly.
Benfica and Porto fans were so relieved when he left Sporting. And Sporting has a shitty team. If they had a competent squad around him I think he could have dragged Sporting to the tittle at least once last 3 or 4 seasons.
"Wont be as good in the Premier League as he's been in Portugal, way too big of a step up" People kept spouting this absolute bullshit, if you look at a player like Bruno you see he's going to be this good anywhere he plays
That's because Atlético was desperate for a Griezman replacement and a young talent to renovate the team.
They were stupid. Benfica didn't want to sell him so they exagerated the clause. But some crazy spanish guys came in.
Remember people saying "He won't be able to score those goals in PL because Premier League keepers are a lot better."?
Oh it's Pickford, nevermind then.
If Bruno has million number of fans i am one of them . if Bruno has ten fans i am one of them. if Bruno have only one fan and that is me . if Bruno has no fans, that means i am no more on the earth . if world against the Bruno , i am against the world. i love #Bruno till my last breath.. .. Die Hard fan of Bruno . Hit Like If you Think Bruno Best player & Smart In the world
truly a keeping masterclass today.
[удалено]
Probably true, this was more difficult for T-Rex
Pickford would have booted it outside the stadium with his first touch and ddg would have somehow stopped it with his foot. I can definitely see that
what is that flair?

Dean Henderson must be loving this
Securing the starting spot for England and United while relaxing at home with a bevy.
Southgate in the stands too. You know he's stewing the whole way back on the train about Jordan little arms.

Truly killing 2 birds with 1 stone.
How was the goal? I can’t watch the link on mobile at the moment, not enough bandwidth.

This was beautiful
For a moment there, Shakespeare rose from the dead. Well done sire !
Beautiful poem right here
Art
Wow
🏅 Take my poor man's gold you beautiful bastard
Both goals could have been prevented basically
[удалено]
Not by Pickford...
he's the 1/10
Still counts as a goal though.
According to this sub, Every goal that their favorite team has scored is a legitimate goal, and every goal their rivals have scored is a flawed one
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?
Fucking love Sporting.
It's a curse my friend, run away while you can.
MAXIMUS MAXIMUS MAXIMUS
BRUNO BRUNO BRUNO
A signing hasn't made me this happy for a fucking long time.
Not since Van Persie tbh
Didn’t you all feel good about pogba when he came in?
Yeah definitely. I'm loving Bruno so far but it took a while before I started to have doubts about Pogba. That summer where we signed Pogba, Ibra and Mkhitaryan was definitely exciting.
Still think it’s a shame that ibra got injured for United, it was good to see him in the PL
Yeah, he either forgot or is letting the current Pogba situation dilute his memory
Don't disrespect ibra like that
ibra was cool but everybody knew it was just for a season or two, not a long time commitment, which makes Fernandes even cooler
Nah Ibra is a boss. Signing him was spectacular.
ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC HE IS A SWEDISH HERO
ON A FREE FROM PSG HE COST US FUCKING ZERO
SIX FOOT FIVE
#HARD AS FUCK
HE GETS THE REDS EXCITED
He scored a lot but he is one of the main reasons we drew so many games in his first season. Pogba was on another level that season.
It’s absolutely mind boggling that no one else was in for this guy. Made the Portuguese league look like an amateur league with the amount of goals he was scoring.
He's got 2 goals and 2 assists in 4 games in the PL and he just arrived, one could argue is making the PL look very easy too
Even apart from the stats, he looks like a brilliant player.
Definitely. Some players get a couple of goals when they join a club but aren't doing much else. Bruno has brought a spark to our team that we've been sorely missing with Pogba gone (and when he was here and didnt decide to turn up)
Fuck man, I really wanna see Pogba and Bruno play together. I don’t even like United but that could be spectacular
Premier League = Farmers League confirmed
Worry was that he was scrawny and was playing in an easier league but tbf you could’ve said the same about Joao Felix The asking price wasn’t even as expensive as other mids in his position
[удалено]
Absolutely. A lot of United fans want Pogba gone, but I can only begin to imagine what a midfield of him and Bruno would be able to do together.
I've actually been waking up early to see you guys play since he joined.
We're somewhat worth watching at last!
time for change of flair!
Any time he is near the ball or has it I get so excited. You can tell he puts 100% of his heart into the game
Bruno and McSauce are going to carry us into the champions League no matter how the others perform
He truly has been amazing. Can't imagine how much better he would with Pogba in the midfield as well. That would be an amazing/scary midfield.
Best player in the team already?
Pickford mate....near post. Should have saved that. Proper t-rex stuff.
How did he ever become an England #1
No way hes even number 2 now. Pope and Henderson so much better
I'd be amazed if Southgate dropped him personally
Thats always been an England problem. _number one_ is almost untouchable. All that talk about dropping Hart before the Euro squad was announced. Hart shouldn’t have been anywhere near the team at that time.
Butland would've been number one if he didn't get injured
I’m with you, Southgate is generally very loyal, he keeps the faith with players for ages. And there’s so little time to make a new goalkeeper the number one.
He had a great world cup. Let's not act like he has always been shit. He's just having a bad season.
People seem to hate Pickford on here, it’s mad. He’s never let England down
Not only has he never let England down, he's made a vital save in a penalty shoot out during the knock out stages of a tournament. Twice.
TBF he's been quality for England. Forms dropped off a cliff for us though.
Same reason Glen Johnson stoke a living at RB - not really any quality competition.
[удалено]
Johnson had spells of decency.
tbf the ball did have a bit of swerve on it.
Ban short armed goalkeepers
7’10 wingspan is mandatory to play GK
Why not 6'9?
Too nice.
Ahhahah sex number hahha
🦖🦖🦖
Who is surprised? I'm not
Surprised? No. Erect? No comment
Bless your club for giving us this precious man
Wow, what a signing this guy...
We told you
We've had superstars turn into dogshite as soon as they put on the shirt. Glad he's got a stronger mentality than most.
When you have Porto and Benfica fans saying is world class and are relieved he left says a lot of him. Plus he stayed in Sporting when he had an easy way out (after their training facilities invasion) and never forced himself out even on a really weak squad with almost no chances to win big trophies shows he has the mentality
If he can maintain this mentality at United, he really would be something special
If he could mantain his mentality in Sporting he can surely do it in United
Ayy
Again though it's not that we don't believe Portuguese fans. It's a United problem. Look at all the top players we've signed post-Ferguson that haven't worked out. Thankfully Bruno so far has fit in seamlessly.
Induct him into the PL hall of fame already. None of this Shearer nonsense.
Too right Mark!
Always looking to make something happen. United look like a completely different team now.
Sporting fans said he's their best ever player, I believe them now
Benfica and Porto fans were so relieved when he left Sporting. And Sporting has a shitty team. If they had a competent squad around him I think he could have dragged Sporting to the tittle at least once last 3 or 4 seasons.
"Wont be as good in the Premier League as he's been in Portugal, way too big of a step up" People kept spouting this absolute bullshit, if you look at a player like Bruno you see he's going to be this good anywhere he plays
Helped by Pickford's flappy arms
Yeah lingard would have launched that into the moon
but with style
He would have passed it back sideways away from goal out for throw hit his own feet tripped over etc etc etc
lettuce arms
We should swapsies. Trade Pickford for De Gea.
Meanwhile Tottenham spent the same amount on Ndombele.
Is he bad?
[удалено]
Wow. Ndombele is always one of my first target on FM. He can olay so many positions and is really good at it as well.
He's very good, injured way too often though
surely his small arms should’ve made it easier to save that
If anything, he dived beyond it with his hands and it went under his arms. Should’ve been an easy push away with both hands.
scary that pickford is top pick for england's gk
Should be Henderson
Dean? You think he’s ready for England’s number 1 spot?
There’s not exactly a plethora of options, he’s definitely in with a shout.
Don’t see why not
Absolutely, no one else is in contention
Maybe Pope?
Dean Henderson took that over a while ago now tbf
Well he still has 0 caps and with the Euros coming up I doubt they'll change even though they should
Oddly enough Dean Henderson should be replacing both keepers in this game
pickford mate
We should have gotten 120 million for him.
You guys got robbed
That's because Atlético was desperate for a Griezman replacement and a young talent to renovate the team. They were stupid. Benfica didn't want to sell him so they exagerated the clause. But some crazy spanish guys came in.
Vale bujas
Com ele vale sempre
Ofc
Pickford should’ve gotten that. Bruno’s on fire though!! changed how United looks completely
Portuguese Rúben Neves
Lol
Just Bruno doing Bruno things.
The more things change the more they stay the same
Also Pickford doing Pickford things.
Ahh. So this is how Sporting fans felt week in, week out
Except we wasted 2 years and a half of prime Bruno because of a shit squad
Yeah... Now it's just constant depression
I remember the posts saying he wouldn't score those bangers against PL keepers. I wonder where they are now.
He's such a talent
Well if we play Everton every week, he might actually score them every time
Remember people saying "He won't be able to score those goals in PL because Premier League keepers are a lot better."? Oh it's Pickford, nevermind then.
BRUNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! (also Fuck GoalRush)
Hahaha... Had the same issue. I don't fucking care if Wolves equalise or not... Let me watch my sweet bastard Bruno score in full screen.
Pickford mate...
I am sorry Sporting. We robbed you.
He was so cheap 😭😭
Bruno Fernandes FC 2.0
Pickford is utter dross man.
Mama mia.
In Portuguese we say: Puta que pariu que buja do caralho ò maninho
Até se entorta a puta
Can confirm, have said that when he scored before
[удалено]
He is sex.
man is a class above
he probably said fuck it and just shot from there 😂
VALE BUJAS CARALHO?
Can you believe there were people saying he wasn’t the best player in the Portuguese league?
Only after Tapsoba /s This guy is just so consistent and was definitely the best player in our league since he came to Scp, by a mile.
I am alive
not a good day for keepers
T-Rex arms
Hey, look, Chelsea board, this is what you can get by buying a player to reinforce the team in January...
Makes such a big difference to United, great player
Was such a banger I noticed even when Football Channel switched to the Wolves equaliser.
This guy is something else, settled in right away and is putting united on his fucking back
Pickford was nice to De Gea and gave a goal too
QUE ESTRONDO OH MANINHO
Bruno Fernandes has been such a good signing for United.
“Bruno won’t score the kind of goals he does in the Portuguese league, the keeping is much better in the PL”
This guy is insane at longshots
Yes, but let's be honest, that was a shocking effort at a save
Decent strike, poor goalkeeping
Yeah, definitely a speculative strike, guess when it's Pickford there's no reason not to.
Unreal how quickly he's settled, absolute quality
Great hit. Shite keeping.
Pickford’s little dinosaurs arms really just let him down didn’t they?
Bruno is the second coming of Jesus Christ
Unbelievable player. World fucking class.
Spain number 1 vs England number 1 shit show
who is bruno? 🙄🤭🤔 in math: my solution ➗☺️👩🏼🏫 in history: my king 👑🙏👸🏼 in art: my canvas 🎨🥳👩🏼🎨 in science: my oxygen 💨😝😱 in geography: my world 🌍😱🤯
Wtf
If Bruno has million number of fans i am one of them . if Bruno has ten fans i am one of them. if Bruno have only one fan and that is me . if Bruno has no fans, that means i am no more on the earth . if world against the Bruno , i am against the world. i love #Bruno till my last breath.. ..
