Former Manchester United striker, Louis Saha, has hailed the club captain, Bruno Fernandes.

Saha reckons the former Sporting CP man has had to do too much for the Red Devils.

The Portuguese has been the main man at Old Trafford since joining from Sporting CP a few years ago.

Fernandes, 29, created chances and scored consistently on top of wearing the captain’s armband.

Speaking during an interview with Paddy Power, the former France international praised the attacking midfielder as one of the best in his position in the Premier League at the moment.

“Bruno Fernandes is one of the best-attacking midfielders in the league and the person who creates the most chances,” he told Paddy Power, via DAZN.

“There might be players who can do a job, but in the Premier League, with the pressure of playing for Manchester United, it’s challenging for any player, and he’s really had to take the pressure off the team,” he added.

“He’s [Fernandes] been asked to be the captain where initially he was just a leader on the pitch. He’s done well as captain,” Saha continued.

“He’s underrated because he’s being asked to do more things and that’s the problem. I saw the same criticism with Casemiro as well, just because of the context.

“Last year he struggled but the season before he was a revelation and helped the squad. Last year people wanted him to do more, and that’s where he struggled,” added the Frenchman.
