More a case of he can get even better, so there’s plenty to look forward to.

could do with getting his pass completion percentages up by a couple of points though.

I truly wish Bruno's current pass completion rate was in our top three problems on the pitch. It's not even in the top thirty-three.

Could do with having a look at this none lad

He's £#%&!ing everywhere on the pitch though, hardly a striker..

Been getting a pass for nearly six years tbf...

Imagine if Bruno played for the Scouse @#%&!s, they'd be naming new-born babies after him, and tracing his family tree on Ancestry.com.

At United there's Reds saying he's suddenly shite because he misplaces a couple of passes.

He’s an ‘ends justify the means’ kind of player. Always looking to do something positive, almost to a fault, and he ends up giving it away more. Pass completion stats are all well and good, but if he’s 30 yards higher up than a deep lying midfielder, he’s not going to have as a good a percentage as someone passing it off five yards to the likes of him.

And he’ll keep doing it. He won’t become more conservative because he fails, he just keeps plugging away. That’s what makes him good too. It’s hard to extract the parts we like from the parts we don’t. It’s like trying to take the aggression out of Roy Keane because he gets sent off too much.

He gets compared to Scholes, but even Scholesy himself said they’re very different. Scholes was much safer on the ball. Even the commentators fall for it. “ a rare misplaced pass from Fernandes”. Not really, he does it all the time.

He can improve on the ball though.

The ones that frustrate me more are when he messes up a relatively simple ball to get someone in. The spectacular Hollywood stuff going wrong I can handle more because so much of it does come off.

the main thing is when he does a misplaced pass ..you can rest assured hes the first one to react and get the ball back hes £#%&!ing relentless , not bad considering hes on the piss all weekend

As weird as, say, wanting the greatest manager of all time sacked just before he went onto win another five titles and a Champions League?

Say what you want mate, but I’m not standing in front of Bruno’s house with a smelly blanket.

Literally no one has said he’s shite, that would be mad. He’s a magnificent player who has the widest range of sublime to ridiculous I’ve ever seen.

simply put...he's a risk taker with the ball in the opponents half of the pitch

sometimes it comes off and sometimes it leaves you shaking your head however we'd all probably agree that it's 100times better having him than not

Why would I say it when I don’t want it?

Here, I’ve got another one for ya... Marcus Rashford is my favourite player in our squad by a distance. He’s a class act and a proper red, but he’s overrated by precisely the same degree to which this forum underrates consistency of performance.

That’s “overrated”, two R’s for the next time he scores a brace.

I don’t mind the risky ones, don’t buy a ticket you don’t win etc. It’s the simple ones he £#%&!s up. Pick the most difficult pass and he’ll piss it, a simple 10 yard slide through to a running striker and he’s as likely to overhit it or pick out the defender. That’s the inconsistency that can be improved.

Of course. Only the club matters, everyone else comes and goes. If they do something well, praise them, if they do something shite, criticise them. Anything else is moronic. Even Ole himself admits he’s still learning - he knows he’s made mistakes here and there.

The only player I can recall never having said a bad word about is Robbo, but that’s probably because I’m extremely biased.
