Our captain now has 51 league assists to his name, drawing level with Eric Cantona, one of an exclusive group of former Reds who can claim to have had such an individual influence over a United squad.
It also puts Fernandes just four assists away from equalling Paul Scholes’s record of 55 and, given that Bruno has never set up fewer than six goals in a single Premier League season since joining in 2020, it wouldn’t be a shock to see that happen.
