Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes was back in action for Portugal and he has continued to stand out as their best player.

Less than a week after he saw out the 4-3 win over Liverpool at centre-half for Manchester United, Bruno Fernandes is back in action already and among the goals.

Bruno Fernandes is an absolute freak of nature to be able to play as much as he does without performance levels dropping.

His fitness and resilience is ludicrous and it does make it easy to understand just why Erik ten Hag has him as captain, with that sort of consistency and work rate traits which will inspire others.

Now during his latest game for Portugal he has scored and assisted in a 5-2 win over Victor Lindelof‘s Sweden – his 20th goal for his country, and this has left fans blown away.

A second even went as far as labelling Bruno to be Portugal’s best: “Portuguese best player in the world right now, Bruno Fernandes”.

This sentiment was shared by a third: “Club or country, Bruno Fernandes is always the main man.”

“Another goal and an assist for Bruno Fernandes tonight. I’m convinced Bruno is actually a machine at this point”, another fan account wrote.

The performance even left one United fan in a reflective mood: “I feel like when Bruno Fernandes leaves the club, it will only be that very moment where our fans appreciate the player that we have had at our club.”

Just how good Bruno Fernandes is for Portugal

We all know how brilliant Bruno is for Ten Hag’s United, but he might be even better for Portugal.

Since the 2022 World Cup in which Bruno scored two and assisted three in five games, he’s continued this run in immense form through qualifying for the Euros.

Six goals and seven assists in 10 European Championship qualification games saw him ranked as the best player in the whole qualification process from any country.

Now as we approach this summer’s tournament, he’s still providing the goods, it is safe to say Bruno is Portugal’s main man.
