"Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes is reportedly not displeased with Ruben Amorim personally, but he is far from happy with the deeper midfield role he's been asked to play. Journalist Ben Jacobs says Fernandes retains a positive relationship with the manager but is frustrated by the positional change, a situation that could force Amorim and United's recruitment team to rethink how best to get the most from their captain."
"You have Bruno Fernandes, who I wouldn't call unhappy with his manager. If anything, they've got a positive relationship, he's the captain of the football club. But he's unhappy with playing that deeper role. So this is where a 4-1-4-1 formation might allow you to play Kobbie Mainoo or Manuel Ugarte in a deeper role, Bruno Fernandes and one of Mbeumo or Cunha."
Bruno Fernandes retains a positive relationship with manager Ruben Amorim but is unhappy and less effective after being moved into a deeper midfield role. The positional change has coincided with reduced goals and assists and a dip in performances this season. Ben Jacobs suggested a 4-1-4-1 could better accommodate a deeper midfielder like Kobbie Mainoo or Manuel Ugarte while allowing Fernandes a more advanced role alongside Mbeumo or Cunha to restore goal threat. United may need to rethink recruitment and midfield structure to maximize Fernandes' strengths and integrate recent signings effectively.
