Bruno Fernandes has hit the ground running at Manchester United in a way many previous signings have failed to do.
The Red Devils haven’t been afraid to splash the cash in recent transfer windows , with big names including Angel Di Maria, Paul Pogba, Romelu Lukaku, and Alexis Sanchez all coming through the doors at Old Trafford.
But while none of the aforementioned Players really lived up to their huge billing, January signing Fernandes has excelled for Manchester United.
And club legend Roy Keane believes this is a lot to do with the – year-old’s attitude, which compliments his quality on the pitch.
“We often talk about players taking time to settle at a club – it’s not taken him long has it?” Roy Keane told
“He seems a very good personality. It’s obviously a huge move for him, but he seems to be enjoying it. He’s got a little bit of arrogance about him.”
The ‘arrogance’ talked about by Keane – a trait the Irishman exuded during his playing days – was on show for the world to see in the Manchester derby in March.

Fernandes was spotted putting his finger to his lips during an argument with Man City manager Pep Guardiola, gesturing him to stop talking.
The Portuguese explained later: “I am so respectful of Pep, what he’s won and what he did for football, but at that moment, he did not respect me and he did deserve my respect. “
