Bruno Fernandes hit two goals and an assist in Manchester United’s 4-1 win at Wolves, taking his side to sixth and becoming just the fifth player to register an assist in five straight Premier League away games. His streak began with a late cross for Harry Maguire at Anfield, then set-piece deliveries for Casemiro at Nottingham Forest, Matthijs de Ligt at Tottenham and two assists at Crystal Palace, before supplying Mason Mount’s volley at Molineux.

Mason Mount says he is finally ready to push on at Manchester United after scoring his third goal of the season in a 4-1 win at Wolves, matching his combined league tallies from the previous two injury disrupted campaigns at Old Trafford. The 25 year old midfielder, signed from Chelsea in 2023, has already featured in 12 of United’s 15 league matches, volleyed in a Bruno Fernandes cross at Molineux and insists staying fit, making forward runs and adding ruthless finishing are now his main priorities.

Ruben Amorim rages at Manchester United after late West Ham equaliser ruins top five push

Manchester United threw away a vital home win against struggling West Ham, conceding a late equaliser from Soungoutou Magassa after Diogo Dalot had put them ahead, wasting the chance to climb into the top five and deepening frustration around their stuttering league campaign. United again lacked creativity and intensity at Old Trafford, with Bruno Fernandes ineffective and Ayden Heaven shaky in his first league start, while poor control of second balls from long deliveries infuriated Ruben Amorim, who blasted his side’s inconsistency and failure to kill the game after scoring.

Fernandes hails “great player” Mount after Palace winner

Bruno Fernandes praised Mason Mount’s quality and mentality after the midfielder scored a low, late winner at Selhurst Park, insisting his team-mates never doubted him despite a difficult start at United marked by injuries, patchy form and limited goals or assists. Trailing to a Jean-Philippe Mateta penalty, United’s midfield surged after half-time, with Fernandes creating both second-half goals and combining smartly from a free-kick for Mount’s decisive strike, which he hopes will trigger a sustained revival for a player Ruben Amorim already values for his movement and finishing threat.

Opta data underlines Bruno Fernandes’ creative load

Opta lists Fernandes top for chances created in the Premier League this season, despite a deeper role alongside a midfield partner. Since his 2020 arrival, he also leads Europe’s top five leagues for chances created overall, highlighting his centrality to United’s chance volume amid evolving attacking personnel. Amorim’s structure uses Fernandes to progress play earlier, boosting volume but suppressing assists without elite finishing or final-ball runners. United’s ceiling rises if conversion improves around Mbeumo and Cunha. Expect set-piece variety and late-arriving patterns to translate chance creation into goals without overexposing defensive rest-defence.

A report claims Fernandes could leave for £57m to non-English clubs from next summer, far below prior Saudi bids. United want their captain to stay, but inconsistent form and team struggles may test resolve. Any exit forces a creative-output replacement at value, a difficult task given market inflation and his chance-creation reliance under Amorim.

Amorim confirmed Fernandes remains first-choice from the spot despite two recent league misses. The captain’s long-term record—62/70 career pens (88.6%), 39/45 for United (86.6%)—underpins the decision ahead of a high-stakes trip to Liverpool. Misses versus Fulham and Brentford triggered scrutiny, but staff prioritise historical conversion and leadership stability. Amorim framed the call as evidence-led and consistent with United’s seniority structure while seeking performance reset in a difficult early-season run.

BBC Sport reports Fernandes’ camp dismissed speculation of a post-World Cup exit, confirming he intends to stay in Europe. Amorim continues to build his midfield around the Portuguese playmaker, whose consistency and leadership remain vital to United’s plans.

Manchester United’s misery deepened with a 3-1 defeat at Brentford, leaving Amorim with just nine wins in 33 league games. Igor Thiago struck twice early, Benjamin Sesko grabbed his first United goal, but Bruno Fernandes missed a penalty before Mathias Jensen sealed it. Amorim insisted he feels no pressure despite fan frustration at his rigid 3-4-3 system and ongoing inconsistency. He admitted United must “play better” and urged his side to build momentum, though defensive lapses and poor finishing again cost them crucial points.

Despite United’s mixed start, Amorim eased pressure with a 2-1 win over Chelsea, thanks to Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro. He admitted Mourinho remains an inspiration but insisted his own focus is firmly on United’s project, brushing aside any talk of distraction or divided loyalty.
