Erik ten Hag furious over Bruno Fernandes social media comments. Calls them “pathetic”!
Bruno Fernandes, a midfield player for Manchester United, is the subject of constant criticism, which Erik ten Hag calls “pathetic”; In the FA Cup fifth round, Ten Hag’s team plays Liverpool at home in the eighth. Casemiro scored the game-winning goal for United in the 89th minute when playing Nottingham Forest away.
Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, called the harsh remarks of his captain “pathetic” and claimed that Nottingham Forest was specifically targeting Bruno Fernandes during his team’s FA Cup victory at the City Ground.
The Portugal midfielder survived a “serious injury” to contribute to United’s 1-0 triumph against Forest, laying the groundwork for Casemiro’s winning free kick in the 89th minute.
With Felipe snatching Fernandes’ throat, Forest was lucky to have avoided being relegated to 10 men in stoppage time.
During the ninety minutes, he faced numerous forceful challenges from Forest and was also the target of jeers on social media following Saturday’s defeat to Fulham, in which he was injured.
Ten Hag’s back was raised when Fulham’s official TikTok account made fun of him for attempting to fake an injury.
Fernandes responded, “I do not wish to go into that since you noticed that Forest had been targeting him, so I don’t disclose what he has, but it was a bad injury,” when asked how serious his injury was.
“He was fouled on multiple occasions. They were pretty close to him while he had the ball, possibly I am slightly too tough.
Then I notice that he is the target of criticism from major media, and social networking sites are incomprehensible. Despite his significant injuries, he played on Saturday and today, fighting to stay in the game despite his high pain threshold.”
“The year before, he also did things similarly against Spurs and in the semifinals and it demonstrates his leadership because it reflects his personality and that is outstanding when you are a leader.”
