Michael Carrick lists Bruno Fernandes' most impressive qualities - after just one game
The training camp in Spain has likely helped, as the Portugal international did not have to deal with the British weather while making the impression at his teammates and coaching staff.
"Yeah, he feels at home in this weather!" Carrick told MUTV. "It’s what he’s used to, but yeah he’s settled in really well. He’s an intelligent, smart lad and speaks great English so it’s been pretty seamless so far. There’s plenty of Portuguese-speaking [players] anyway.
"But he’s fine, he’s settled in really well and he’ll just be looking to get games under his belt now and improve as time goes on."
Naturally, Carrick was then asked what impresses his about Bruno football-wise.
"There’s so much to talk about, really," our former midfielder responded. "I think the main thing is his composure and quality on the ball. He sees a pass, he looks to play the pass and he can score goals.
"But it’s more that composure, understanding of the game and game intelligence really that I like the most about him, and I’m sure we’ll see plenty of that.”
So far, Bruno has only played one game for United after completing a long-awaited transfer in January. Nevertheless, he has already been very positively rated by the fans, and even our next opponents, Chelsea, are sure to pay close attention to the 25-year-old.
