In the match of round 16 of the Premier League, Man Utd unexpectedly suffered a 0-3 defeat against Bournemouth. It was a match in which the Red Devils played weakly and easily conceded goals.
Not only that, after this match, Man Utd also suffered a big loss when Bruno Fernandes was suspended for the big match against Liverpool in the next round due to receiving enough yellow cards.
In the 84th minute, the camera lens turned to the Portuguese star. This midfielder walked slowly on the field with a dissatisfied look after receiving a card for his reaction to the main referee Peter Bankes.
On social media, Bruno Fernandes has received a lot of criticism for making elementary mistakes, putting Man Utd in a difficult position in the match against Liverpool. Here are some comments on social media Twitter:
"Is Bruno Fernandes scared and wants to avoid Liverpool?"
"Maybe Bruno Fernandes wants to clear the card because he is afraid of facing Liverpool".
"Bruno Fernandes does not deserve to be captain of Man Utd".
Commenting on ESPN , former player Craig Burley continuously criticized Bruno Fernandes: "Man Utd is really in chaos. Whether people criticize and think he deserves to be the captain of Man Utd or not, the situation does not change. The club will have to enter two consecutive important matches with Bayern Munich and Liverpool.
Bruno Fernandes must understand the pressure on Ten Hag. He is a key player and captain of the club. He is also a star player for the team. He was booked for his reaction, basically. That is what Bruno Fernandes does all the time. And then he cost the team the game against Liverpool.
Coach Ten Hag has to face another big problem when working at top teams. I think it is unacceptable behavior for the team captain. No one will forgive Bruno Fernandes' actions."
Man Utd will face Bayern Munich in the Champions League. The Red Devils are currently at the bottom of Group A with 3 points, 1 point behind Copenhagen and Galatasaray. They have only one scenario to win a ticket to the next round: defeat Bayern Munich and hope that the match between Copenhagen and Galatasaray ends in a draw.
