The Sun quoted former defender Gary Neville on Sky Sports: " Bruno Fernandes stood in the center circle, raised his hands and said why he wasn't playing. Honestly, I think some of Bruno's actions in the second half were a disgrace. I'm fed up with Bruno just waving his arms and not running. That's not the performance of a captain ."
According to the British press, Neville even made those comments on live television when Anthony Elanga was substituted for Marcus Rashford. Prior to that, a number of key Manchester United players were also substituted by manager Erik ten Hag. Ultimately, Man Utd lost to Liverpool 0-7, their heaviest defeat in history.

Bruno Fernandes has been criticized.
Also on Sky Sports, Roy Keane expressed his disappointment: " Bruno Fernandes' body language today was embarrassing. The other players too, they must have felt embarrassed. Man Utd disappeared in the second half. But I have to say Liverpool were really impressive. The energy and decision-making showed that Liverpool are back in form. "
Bruno Fernandes himself had a poor game. He made no professional impact. The 28-year-old midfielder missed a chance in the first half when he headed wide after a cross from Diogo Dalot. The Portuguese player repeatedly reacted to Liverpool's central defender Ibrahim Konate. Bruno Fernandes also frequently expressed his dissatisfaction with the referee.
However, even the Man Utd captain was aware of his own poor performance: " I'm really frustrated because it was such a bad result. The first half was really good, we created most of the chances, they didn't create as many chances. What happened in the second half wasn't up to our standards."
Man Utd could have done better. We always set standards for ourselves and now Man Utd have to go back to that. The whole team tried to react, tried to move forward but failed ."
