Man Utd captain Bruno Fernandes makes surprising revelation
Bruno Fernandes may be Manchester United’s talisman, but even the captain admits he feels pre-match nerves.
The Portuguese midfielder revealed that before every game, he experiences a sense of nervousness—not out of fear, but as a way to keep his mind sharp and focused.0
For him, this restlessness drives his engagement, whether he’s on the pitch, on the bench, or watching from home.
Fernandes told BBC’s Match of the Day: "I get more nervous watching the game because you know, like, I'm basically suffering for my teammates.0
“When you see something going against them and they are trying to make something different, and it doesn't come through, I get very nervous. I can't be steady on the bench or even at home.0
“If I have to stay at home and see the game at home, I can't be like not loud. I need to be loud, I need to be active.0
“It's like I'm in the game. In every game, I'm nervous. Nervous in the sense of getting that good nervous. I want to be involved in the game, like mentally I need my head to be working."0
