For me, It's very similar to Virgil Van Dijk, When he went to Liverpool, Think about it, Liverpool tried to sign him the summer before but didn't, But they got him in 2018 and they've not looked back since.
I genuinely believe Bruno Fernandes is having a similar impact, We had Andreas Pereira & Jesse Lingard, We weren't playing good football, But since he came to us, We've been playing a lot better, And he's a leader as well.

Still don’t get why we didn’t sign him in the summer because spurs easily could. Rumours last summer was that we were not interested in him because he gave ball away too much? Then we buy him after few months and dithered soo much? He would of had us in top 4 long ago. Nevertheless I want to see him and pogba together .

Spurs backed out as well tho for some reason... Baffling why either did given the impact
Seem to recall the prices touted in the summer were higher than what we have paid
Our deal was 47 million with add ons... 47 isn't a huge fee and if we end up paying the add ons then it'll be because he's been a success and worth paying them

That's not what sporting say. They reckon they got an extra £16m by holding out.

Is that not down to a stupidly low initial offer from us tho
He looks value either way
If it rises to 67 million and all add ons are paid then he'll have been a huge success and we're back winning trophies again... Still less than a lukaku

Yeah, he looks top class.
Virgils impact for us was transformative. We’ve ended up winning all the major honours in 2 years primarily because of him.

you have only won one major honour in the 2 and half seasons he has been there

When Fernandes finally has Rashford to feed through on goal and Pogba to interlink with, the impact he’ll have will be even bigger.
I can’t wait to see all of our best players in the same team.

It’s tiresome isn’t it. I could’ve mentioned the defensive records that came about overnight or the competing with Messi for Ballon Dorr’s.
But back to Bruno, he’s the kind of player that will turn a non CL club into a CL club.

No idea why the gooner isn’t giving you the league. No one can stop you.

Wish everyone would draw a line under the "why didn't we get him in the summer" business.
It's done, it's not gonna change and there is no saying he would have had the same impact as coming in in January and being a bit of a saviour figure rather than just another player to bed in during a tricky transitional season.
We have him, he's doing well... No need for ifs, buts and maybes.

bruno has now made one more appearance than Pogba this season for us as well
