Mmichael Carrick. Manchester United's coach risked Bruno Fernandes of the eleven who will face Bournemouth this Sunday in a decision that takes place a few days after the Portuguese captain criticized the red devils' game plan in Como.
This will be the first match, referring to the Premier League, in which Bruno Fernandes will be an alternate, and the last time this happened dates back to May 4, 2025, with Ruben Amorim at the helm of the United, in the defeat against Brentford.
