Bruno Fernandes received praised from his manager for his set piece deliveries in 2-0 win over Chelsea.
The January signing struck the post through one of his freekicks and then assisted Harry Maguire from the corner for Manchester United’s second goal.
“He’s a top player, he wants to get on the ball,” the United manager told a news conference. “But at set-ball delivery he’s top class, one of the better ones I’ve seen. And Harry, we know if he can get a run on the ball he’s dangerous and he got the goal.”
Fernandes has definitely been a great influence in the two games he has played for United till date. His creativity and spark has given the Red Devils a direction in attack. Ole Solskjaer was pleased with the result on Monday night but still demanded more from his players.
“Of course we want to be in the Champions League next year, and we’ve given ourselves a chance by this result, but we know that we need to improve,” he said. “On creating chances, scoring goals. We showed a clean sheet again today, a foundation to build from.
“We’re going to work hard, recover now because we’ve got a game on Thursday. So thanks for the help, all the recovery we get in Europe.”
Manchester United are due to visit Club Brugge for the first leg of the round of 32 Europa League tie on Thursday.
