Incredible player. Should win the PFA award this season, virtually making the difference for a mediocre team from the day he joined.

by RealGunner Tue Nov 24, 2020 8:40 pm

Even more incredible to do so against a team with Demba Ba, Martin Skrtel and Nacer Chadli in it

by danyjr Tue Nov 24, 2020 8:53 pm

Still levels above your boy Bukkake Sucka tbh hmm

by Firenze Sun Nov 29, 2020 7:13 pm

best player in the league by some distance

still young

leadership qualities

absolute bargain

by danyjr Sun Nov 29, 2020 7:45 pm

Who would come close to him? KDB in a far more stacked team. And Fernandes has bailed United in 9 months more than KDB has ever bailed City out.

An EPL GOAT.

Since Man Utd debut:

32 goals
19 assists

Only Messi (53) and Lewandowski (67) have been involved in more goals in this time period.

He's already scored 21 goals in all competitions and it's February. Insane output from a midfielder. If he avoids injuries this season, he'll very likely surpass Lampard's 27 goals in 09/10.

Genuinely curious.

Easy answer, 25 goals per season from midfield

Single handedly holding our season aloft and ofc keeping Ole in the job. What a player. Imagine not having him. We would be likely 10th right now.

by Firenze Sun Feb 21, 2021 1:35 pm

Hope he got a wage increase tbh, sure I read when he was signed he was only on 80K P/W. Needs to be up there with our top earners.

How silly were some Serie A fans with their assessment of Bruno? Laughing

I bet most of them didn't even know who he was or barely paid attention to what was going on outside of their top 6 bubble, yet they acted like they're an authority on the guy's career and potential.

by Casciavit Fri May 14, 2021 6:40 pm

Calling him the rich man's Lampard two years ago only for him to break Lampard's scoring record in his first full PL season. Proud

That's a great achievement.

However, it's still not close if you remove penalties from both players (and I am not saying that as a criticism of Bruno, but a simple statement of fact that scoring penalties is easier than scoring any other kind of goal).

by BarrileteCosmico Sat May 15, 2021 2:08 am

How many pens did lampard score?

by CBarca Sat May 15, 2021 2:10 am

A player that for me blends what it is to be a midfield vs forward. Still an amazing achievement and one of the best in the PL this season, if not the best.

by Lord Spencer Sat May 15, 2021 9:15 am

BarrileteCosmico wrote:How many pens did lampard score?

On 09/10, Lampard scored 10 penalties out of 27 goals compared to 13 penalties out of 28 goals for Bruno this season.

Also, Lampard scored his goals in fewer minutes and matches than Bruno. However, that season was also Chelsea's highest-scoring season, so that obviously helped their attacking output.

Throughout his career, Lampard scored 60 penalties, compared to 43 by Bruno so far.

by Hapless_Hans Sat May 15, 2021 11:19 am

He's not called Penandes for nothing.

by Firenze Sat May 15, 2021 11:49 am

lets just ignore his assist and key pass contribution eh

highest in europe btw

best in the world

gonna win a balon d'or with just a europa league under his belt

Wattba

by rincon Sat May 15, 2021 12:58 pm

Pogba and Bruno will be even bigger EL legends than Falcao when all is said and done.

Who is ignoring his assists?

I talked specifically about the goal-scoring aspect, and why it is less impactful a bit than Lampard's goal-scoring achievement. But if we are also going with assists, then Lampard had 18 assists in that same season compared to 17 assists by Bruno this season. Again, in fewer games.

Doesn't change the fact that United would be in mid-table without Bruno. He is probably one of the most important players for their team this year.

by Myesyats Sun May 16, 2021 1:49 am

This Utd team is much worse than Chelsea 09/10. Bruno's achievement is nothing short of amazing.
