Bruno Fernandes is the hero United fans always wanted: Paul Ince

The former United midfielder Paul Ince has praised Bruno’s impact right from his debut.

Ince also hails Fernandes’ general awareness as well as set-piece ability.

Talking about Bruno Fernandes’ impact at Man United, Paul Ince told the Daily Star: “It was Fernandes from day one that made the difference. You come to United and it's one of the biggest clubs in the world.

You can't take your time to settle in. You have to hit the ground running - which is something Paul Pogba didn't do.

“United fans have always wanted a hero and they've not had that for a long time. Fernandes is now the star name to sing about.

“His performances have been so good but you do still have to give it more time. Players like Roy Keane and Paul Scholes did it over several seasons, but the first signs are he's got a bit of everything. He has a lovely touch and awareness - as well as being a set-piece specialist.”

Bruno has been a breath of fresh air at United since arriving, playing a big role in our amazing undefeated streak since January.

He’s won consecutive Premier League Player of the Month awards and gotten United playing a much more attractive style.

Fernandes has scored 8 goals and picked up as many assists for the Red Devils in all competitions since arriving and is guaranteed to keep up his amazing work in attack.
