You can lean on nonsense stats if you like. I'm going by what has actually happened on the pitch. Also - I notice you have AWB in instead of Dalot. Why? All your giving is problems. No solutions. Who else would play instead of him ? Wan Bissaka is currently better than Dalot. Eyes are enough to know this. |

Well, not really, but I was just wondering why you seemingly drop Dalot for being crap but then make excuses for others being worse. |

Bruno is best when he plays as a no.10 , he has been good from the right too but ETH should stop switching him around constantly.
I agree his antics are irritating and he needs to be less wasteful but in the 'Problems to solved in MUFC' list i see him at the end along with degea, can do with an upgrade but not the biggest priority right now.
On captaincy , i think everyone will agree Casemiro is the deserving one. No idea why ETH is not making the change , honestly cant see anyone complaining as Case is a senior player and a winner.

Could be that he does not speak much of the local lingo currently,pretty sure that once he can do a presser with many issues he will be capt,unless we sign Kane in the Summer. |

I think this is pretty much right. He has shown he is a leader of men, very much respected too. Language is the only thing I can think of really |

Valencia was captain for years and never did a presser in his life.

Is Bruno really a leader of men? He's won a single trophy in his entire time with us and he was pretty average in the final and it was Casemiro who produced a dominant performance that helped us win the game. He was total crap last season and ever present in some of our most embarrassing defeats and captain during the 7-0 disaster showing. He's been better this year but I wouldn't say he is one of our best players: Casemiro, Varane, Martinez, Rashford, even Eriksen have been more influential. He spends more time talking to the referee than his teammates. He is invariably quiet in big games. His body language is often terrible. He's creative and his work rate has been pretty good under Ten Hag but I wouldn't say he is inspirational.
He got the captaincy by default because Maguire never plays and Erik wasn't keen to give it to any of the new lads.

You can throw outrage based on your personal feelings as much as you like, the stats reflect what happened on the pitch. It isn't personal feeling it's fact. The stats that matter is 7. That is 7 goals and 7 assists. Which is pathetic for apparently the creative heartbeat of our team. 'Chances created' means nothing. What is a chance? These are statistics compiled by Opta. I've gone with this year's premier league campaign. Maybe according to you De Bruyne is useless too considering he's lost the ball the most among these 3?  As you can clearly see, most of your griping is baseless. The only difference between de Bruyne and Bruno is he's got fucking Haaland while we've got Hahahahahahaaland. De bruyne also doesn't nearly work on the defensive aspect of the game like Bruno does, as is evidenced by the ball recoveries stat. Yes, he had a bad day. That's about it. The rest of your problems with him are somewhat similar to your issue with Rashford. Something has rubbed you wrong and now you won't stop. |

On current form AWB Is playing better than Dalot. Who else would play instead of Bruno? Sancho Garnacho Pellistri Mainoo Sabitzer Fred |

On current form AWB Is playing better than Dalot. Who else would play instead of Bruno? Sancho Garnacho Pellistri Mainoo Sabitzer Fred Other than Sancho, I don't think any of these can play at 10 (which is where Bruno should be deployed in this XI). After getting mauled 7-0 I can understand why people might want to see AWB ahead of Dalot - the former is a better defender, so much so that he's been criticized for ages mainly due to him offering very little going forward. He obviously has his weaknesses, as do both (particularly AWBs posisional awareness, or unawareness). |

Compare the Bruno we have now with his first two seasons at the club where he genuinely did carry us in midfield and saved Oles job and our season. There's no comparison in my opinion. He's stagnating and needs a kick in the hole. The opinions on allowing them to redeem themselves is horseshit in my opinion. We've conceded 16 goals in two years to these pricks, redemption seems impossible. |

We've conceded 16 goals in two years to these pricks, redemption seems impossible. He also was angry for a good month that we didn't sign Rabiot.  Ole designed and set up his team so that Bruno ends up carrying them. I really don't want that. If we trust ten Hag so far, trust him that he'll either fix Bruno like he has Rashford and Shaw, or trust that he'll push him to the side. He isn't the right choice for captain, but he's not shit. If the manager thought he was shit he wouldn't play, simple as. |
