Bruno Fernandes has addressed Manchester United’s sweeping cost-cutting measures under Sir Jim Ratcliffe, stating “a lot of people have suffered” and calling on the squad to show accountability on the pitch. The United captain made the comments after a 2-2 draw with Everton in Atlanta, as INEOS completed another round of job cuts at the end of the last season.
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has come under fire for a rash foul on Everton midfielder Iliman Ndiaye during the pre-season 2-2 draw in Atlanta, with fans branding him 'one of the most unlikeable players on earth' after the ugly scuffle that followed. The heated clash overshadowed what had been an entertaining friendly between the Premier League sides.
James Maddison was seen on crutches and visibly devastated after suffering what appears to be a serious knee injury in Tottenham Hotspur’s pre-season clash with Newcastle, just days after making his comeback from a previous setback. Spurs boss Thomas Frank has revealed his fear that it is a recurrence of the same issue that sidelined him at the end of last season.
Ruben Amorim has admitted that he knew Manchester United would "struggle" in certain matches during the 2024-25 campaign. Amorim oversaw 27 matches after replacing Erik ten Hag as manager and won only seven times. United finished 15th in the Premier League, their worst league position since the 1989-90 campaign and also lost the Europa League final to Tottenham.
Ruben Amorim has set his sights on a remarkable 20-year stay at Manchester United despite enduring a nightmare debut season. The Portuguese coach has thanked the club’s hierarchy for standing by him during a turbulent start and believes with time, support and luck, he can lead the Red Devils back to the top of English football after years of mediocrity.
Former Manchester United manager Ron Atkinson has leapt to the defence of Bruno Fernandes, insisting the midfielder is unfairly criticised and would be just as effective as Kevin De Bruyne had he joined Manchester City instead of the Red Devils. Atkinson also backed Fernandes’ tendency to call out team-mates, given the level he expects from them at Old Trafford.
Alejandro Garnacho has been frozen out of Manchester United's first-team plans by Ruben Amorim, and the Portuguese coach has insisted that the decision is not personal. The Argentine has been training separately from the main squad and is now expected to leave the Red Devils, with Chelsea and Aston Villa showing strong interest in signing the winger this summer.
