Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes continues to cement his status as one of the Premier League’s most consistent attacking performers, becoming the only player to register 10+ goals and assists in each of the last seven league seasons. The remarkable stat circulated across social media ahead of United’s clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers — and the Portuguese midfielder responded in the best way possible.
Fernandes delivered a masterclass at the Molineux as Manchester United secured an emphatic 4-1 victory over Wolves on Thursday night. The midfielder was directly involved in two goals, scoring once and providing an assist, further underlining his influence on Ruben Amorim’s side and taking his tally for the season to new heights. The performance also reinforced his position at the top of the Premier League assist chart, where he currently leads with six assists.
United started brightly and maintained control throughout, with Fernandes orchestrating attacks, dictating tempo and showcasing the creativity that has made him the team’s heartbeat since joining the club. His assist came via a perfectly weighted pass that split the Wolves defence, while his goal, a composed finish, reflected his calmness in front of the net.
