Bruno Fernandes was appointed Manchester United captain recently and he has explained exactly what makes him a good captain for the club.
He takes over the role from previous captain Harry Maguire, who has lost his place as a regular in the team since the arrival of manager Erik Ten Hag.
Fernandes spoke to the BBC (Quotes via Utd Plug on Twitter): “It’s great. It’s an honour and a lot of responsibility. I am vocal on the pitch, I am demanding and I help. I had very strict captains like (Antonio) Di Natale, very demanding, but a player who performs wants others to do the same.
“My way of being, my performances, that’s what allowed me to be captain, so I don’t think I have to change, but I have to improve as a player and as a captain.
He finished: “There are a lot of leaders and that makes my job easier. They help me create the right mentality. We have great, experienced players. We have a group of responsible players who know what they have to do to be at Man United.”
The Red Devils kick off their season on Monday night, as they face Wolverhampton Wanderers at Old Trafford.
