🚨💣🗣️ Thierry Henry on Bruno Fernandes Season:
"Listen, we have to talk about what we are seeing from Bruno Fernandes right now, because sometimes in football, we take consistency for granted. To be sitting there on 19 assists with games still to play... that is not normal. It is not easy.
People always talk about my record the 20 assists I had in that 2002/03 season. And let me tell you, I know exactly what it takes to get to that number. It’s not just about the quality of the pass; it’s about the vision to see a gap before it even exists, and then having the technical execution to deliver the ball exactly where the striker needs it. It’s about being the 'brain' of the team. And Bruno, for all the talk about his frustration or his emotions, he is the undisputed brain of that Manchester United side.
You see that assist today against Brentford? That’s what I love. It’s the weight of the pass. It’s knowing exactly when to release it. He’s on the verge of matching me, and potentially going past me, and look records are there to be broken. I’ve always said that. If you are good enough to beat a record that has stood for over twenty years, you deserve all the flowers. You have to respect the grind.
And let’s be serious for a second: if he goes ahead and does this if he breaks that 20-assist barrier in this Premier League, with the intensity of the game today for me, he has to be the PFA Player of the Year. Simple as that. You cannot have a player reach that level of creative output and not recognize him as the best in the land. He carries the responsibility, he demands the ball, and he delivers. If he hits 21, I’ll be the first one to stand up in this studio and clap, because I know the difficulty of that mountain he’s climbing."
