Manchester United fans picked one key Ruben Amorim first-team player for the Man of the Match award ahead of Bruno Fernandes after the 1-1 draw against West Ham.
Bruno Fernandes continued to play from deep within the Red Devils’ midfield pivot alongside Casemiro in Thursday evening’s Premier League clash at Old Trafford.
Are you confident Man Utd will beat Wolves?
The 31-year-old Manchester United captain struggled to make a major impact over the course of the 90 minutes in the Red Devils’ match with the Hammers.
However, Fernandes did come close to scoring a sensational strike during United’s 1-1 draw with West Ham, only for his sublime shot to flick off the outside of the post.
Diogo Dalot opened the scoring for the Red Devils in the second half, but West Ham found an equaliser against United thanks to Soungoutou Magassa’s impact.

Bruno Fernandes’ influence for Manchester United has waned significantly in the 2025-26 Premier League season after dropping deep into the two-man pivot.
The Portugal international has only managed to score twice and has picked up five assists in 15 matches across all competitions this season under Ruben Amorim.

“It’s an instant kill on his first touch. He still has a lot to do. A brilliant moment for him and a great finish.”
