He has a lot of staff, but Bruno Fernandez probably doesn&#8217;t play his natural position. He plays deeper. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<div data-testid=\"organism-media-card\" class=\"relative block w-full text-left\">\n<div class=\"w-full\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<div class=\"relative overflow-hidden h-full w-full\" data-testid=\"molecule-card-illustration\">\n<div data-testid=\"atom-card-picture\" class=\"wrapper-16-9 relative\">\n<figure class=\"card-hover-zoom absolute h-full w-full\">\n<div class=\"h-full w-full object-cover\" data-testid=\"blurry-image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"text-transparent h-full w-full object-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/imgresizer.tntsports.io\/unsafe\/1200x0\/filters:format(jpeg)\/origin-imgresizer.tntsports.io\/2025\/09\/27\/image-60e7886b-1806-4dae-a264-df76a625a862-85-2560-1440.jpeg\" alt=\"photograph\" data-testid=\"image-high-res\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-onLight-02 py-3 pr-3\" data-testid=\"media-card-caption\">\n<p class=\"caption-2\">&#8220;He had to wait that long&#8221; &#8211; Fernandez misses the penalty after a long delay <\/p>\n<p class=\"caption-2\">Video Credit: TNT Sports<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>&#8220;I think everyone thought it would be better this year with (Mashus) Cunya and (Brian) Mbemo, but they&#8217;re getting better, but the problem is that there&#8217;s still a problem with the top of the striker&#8217;s pitch. You still have a goalkeeping situation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>&#8220;And they&#8217;re way too easy to play against. You thought they&#8217;d score goals by bringing in Mbeumo and cunha. There were 40 people in the Premier League last year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>&#8220;Defensively, I don&#8217;t think they&#8217;ve (improved), I see Liverpool and Arsenal and I know who&#8217;ll play in the back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>\u201cRuben has revolved it three times so there is no calm partnership and I think they can settle for the Keeper.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2 class=\"text-onLight-02 mt-10 mb-3 title-2 md:title-1\" data-testid=\"atom-body-h2\">&#8220;Mbeumo can release Fernandez.&#8221;<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>Fernandez has occasionally cut down on frustrating figures this season, missing two of the three penalties. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>The Portuguese were rejected from 12 yards during a 3-1 defeat against Brentford on Saturday. That means he has missed six penalties since he arrived at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>In Amorim&#8217;s 3-4-3 formation, United captains must play a deeper role than they previously operated for the club and country.

He plays deeper. He plays as a box-to-box midfielder. Bruno is one of the best creators in the division.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>&#8220;But they play two 10s, so the two best players from Man UTD last season were Amad (Diallo) and Bruno. They were two 10Ss. And they signed two more 10Ss with Cunha and Mbeumo when there were no keepers or strikers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>&#8220;So they could have done that, but they decided to score goals with my favourite Cunha and Mbeumo and sign a proven Premier League player.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>&#8220;So, he&#8217;s not in his game, so he&#8217;s not in the right defensive position, so it&#8217;s the manager who picks it. But Bruno wants to play No. 10, Mbeumo as No. 9.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<div data-testid=\"organism-media-card\" class=\"relative block w-full text-left\">\n<div class=\"w-full\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<div class=\"relative overflow-hidden h-full w-full\" data-testid=\"molecule-card-illustration\">\n<div data-testid=\"atom-card-picture\" class=\"wrapper-16-9 relative\">\n<figure class=\"card-hover-zoom absolute h-full w-full\">\n<div class=\"h-full w-full object-cover\" data-testid=\"blurry-image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"text-transparent h-full w-full object-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/imgresizer.tntsports.io\/unsafe\/1200x0\/filters:format(jpeg)\/origin-imgresizer.tntsports.io\/2025\/09\/27\/image-2bb3a271-9188-4521-9b0b-dc46d57d0aee-85-2560-1440.jpeg\" alt=\"photograph\" data-testid=\"image-high-res\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-onLight-02 py-3 pr-3\" data-testid=\"media-card-caption\">\n<p class=\"caption-2\">&#8220;Abysmal&#8221;, &#8220;Insipid&#8221; &#8211; Cole Slams Man UTD Brentford&#8217;s defeat<\/p>\n<p class=\"caption-2\">Video Credit: TNT Sports<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>&#8220;Maybe if you want to stay in the formation, you might play Amado as the back of the left wing.
