Turmoil has been no stranger to Old Trafford in recent years; the club has employed 10 managers since Alex Ferguson left in May 2013. Their 15th-placed finish last season – their lowest since they were relegated in 1974 – was a new low. But there has been one bright spot through all the disappointments: Bruno Fernandes playing world-class football and reminding everyone what United can be at their best. This season, at 32, he continues to stand out.

In November, he revealed the club had been open to the idea of him moving to Saudi Arabia. “The club wanted me to leave,” he said. “From the club I felt: ‘If you go it’s not that bad for us.’ It hurts me a bit. I decided not to go, not only for family reasons, but because I genuinely like the club.” Fans will be delighted he stayed.
