Ranked: Casemiro, Marcus Rashford & the top candidates to replace 'disgraceful' Bruno Fernandes as Man Utd captain

The headlines have been dominated by Manchester United skipper Bruno Fernandes in the aftermath of their humiliating 7-0 drubbing against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.

First, he was blasted by pundits for his usual arm-waving and hissy fits in the direction of his team-mates, then he appeared to be in hot water for shoving an assistant referee, and post-match it was alleged he had demanded a substitution having had his fill of the embarrassment.

The FA won't be taking any action against him for pushing the linesman, and the theory about him asking to be withdrawn has since been debunked, but that hasn't stopped his leadership credentials being called into question.

Speaking after the game, former Man Utd captain and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville said: "I start with the captain. You don’t throw your hands up, you run back. I’ve had enough of him throwing his arms up as team-mates and not running back. It was a disgrace.”

His display of petulance has now led to reports that even his team-mates are growing tired of his histrionics, but who could manager Erik ten Hag turn to if he is forced to make a big call?
