Any Chocapic fans out there? 😍
Chocapic fan from Mauritius!🇲🇺 Love Bruno even more now 😁
I'm one, but then again I'm portuguese myself :D
@@jeanlundi2141 can you tell me the sporting Lisbon interviewer that interviewed Marcus edwards
I actually now see why Bruno is a Leader, he's passionate, self critical, protects others, wants the best for teammates and the club.
We have won every game with him as captain too 🤔
yea, it also shows how much of a passenger Maguire is
@@joelroman5593 and lost every game that maguire started.
The state of football these days if Bruno is the captain of man United 😂
@@garyambrosini1427 and what is the state of football when maguire is captain?
Our best signing post the BOSS.
The man who knew from the moment he donned red,what it meant to be a united player.
The man who actually acts like a leader every time we see and hear him talk about the club.
The only rightful leader of our club,
our magnifico,
our CAPTAIN.
❤️
L😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
I like bruno but what about when he's rolling around on the floor after diving, I don't think that's captainly, he would need to cut that stuff out in my opinion
@@travisbicklefeels8780 It’s the modern game unfortunately mate. Ronaldo does it and he’s a captain, Sergio Ramos wasn’t any different, Busquets is the Barca captain and a chronic cheat, same goes for lots of others.
Great interview Adam, well worded questions and no interrupting the flow of Bruno’s awnsers. A passionate, determined player who just wants to win and also speaks very well
Well said Patrick. I hadn't even noticed that which says it all, as you say.
Interviewer and Bruno both 200 IQ, loved it. Not a second wasted, clean crisp interview.
Bruno is a journalists dream, ask one question, get five answers! Lol love his passion for football
Imagine if he had the same passion but responds to journalists like Kimi Raikonnen lmao
You can see the emotion when the talked about Ole.
Sad to imagine him having the worst day of his life at Man United 😔😔
Did he know the camera was on? Haven't seen that open and honest an interview with an active player in a very long time. That's the type of chat you get with someone whose years retired. Great man
I know right, the honesty and how well he expressed himself thru words, emotions, that's a visionary leader innate in him..
Kudos for the Athletic for making this happen..
I think the calm demeanor of the interviewer played a great part in that too.
He left him to express himself as much as he would like.
Bruno, Bruno, Bruno, He’s from Sporting like Cristiano, He goes left, He goes right, He makes the defences look sh*te, He’s our Portuguese magnifico
Love it when the TRA chant that😅😅
Adam is a top notch interviewer and Bruno is the REAL captain of MUFC.
He mentioned Tom Heaton.. ❤️❤️
Now that's a real leadership there..
You can't be a Man United fan and hate Bruno, a true leader on the pitch and a passionate fan for United off the pitch, always wants the best for the club, the players and the fans, should be our captain right away.
You can't be a United fan (supporter) and hate any United player. Hate is a horrible word, look up what the word means. Here's a few others that should never be used in the context of supporting a club, vile, despicable, useless, rubbish. You are not the club, the players and the manager and the history define the club, especially the history. You are not the crowd in the Colosseum watching gladiators kill each other for an afternoon of pleasure, you are there because you love the club, its players, its manager and its history and you are there to support them.
Small detail but he’s English is absolutely brilliant for a non native speaker. There’s some corrections but on the whole it’s very impressive. Great professional.
As an Englishman it’s equally impressive as it is embarrassing for me when he speaks and understands English so well and I know maybe 10 Portuguese words.
I am in love with bruno that ole bit was heart touching my respect for bruno has doubled
Some of these questions are asked extremely well...
U can tell Bruno respected them, which is why he gave excellent answers!
Bruno has the best or second best stats on literally everything in the whole team and people still claim he is a problem, the man has been playing for the whole team since he arrived...
The difference between this interview and Maguire’s interview with Neville shows why Bruno should be permanent captain
This is one of the best interviews from Bruno i have seen so far. The guy is a proper leader, and I especially liked how he set the record clear with Ole.
I suspect this video was meant to be 1 part but Bruno explains everything so passionately and Adam let him express himself fully, they had to make it 2 parts😄.Hoping U and the team improve on the pitch.Love you Bruno❤
I love how accountable he is
He is incredibly honest and well spoken. I haven’t seen that even from the greats like Gerard Rio Scholes or Lampard, who were very diplomatic English Homegrown boys. Never this straightforward. I obviously hate him on the pitch but I love him for how much he cares about his club.
Fantastic interview great work by Adam and The Athletic.. How can you not like Bruno if You're a United fan.. he truly loves the club
There we go, clear as day. Just like we all thought. Ten Hag bringing the discipline, stability and philosphy of play that we all know this club needed.
Our best signing of the past decade. Our heart and soul on and off the pitch. Oh captain my captain.
Yes best signing after Ronaldo
Very intelligent, measured, honest, and aware!
Already a Man Utd legend! 👿
Only with trophies. We are not West Ham.
That's what we call class professionalism and putting yourself in normal fans shoes when answering questions while maintaining the dignity of others,acknowledging others unseen effort in the dressing room like Tom Heaton,this is the same guy who introduced Anthony Elanga's brilliance to the fans before he even started playing in the first team,he was just training with the first team at that moment,and Bruno Clearly said"it doesn't matter who I play with as no.9,be it ronny,rashy,sometimes Mata and even Antony who is a young brilliant lad" put a like in this comment so that I'll remember this interview for decades to come🤌
If ever there is a Utd version of All Or Nothing, Bruno would be prominently featured!
I can't see united letting them, as much as I want to see it, I used to work in one of the hospitality suites and staff have a long, pretty low paid day, with a free sandwich. But its hard for us to get around the club. For some reason I can't see all or nothing going united, as much as I would love it
I find him to be extremely intelligent captain definitely but he seems like a manager in the making.
Honestly. Much respect to Bruno
Glad I'm not the only one thinking that he has potential to be a manager..
A true captain with or without armband. 🔥🥂✊
This is why Bruno must be captain now & make Varane VC.
Bruno spoke from the heart here...good & bad.
Maguire just has no personality & would never do an interview like this, he would only sound robotic & he could never give the fans that insight into the ups & downs of being at the club...
Easily one of the best interviews of a Utd player in a decade!!
Bruno has done himself the world of good here...the passion he spoke with & that will to win came through & I don't think there is a Utd fan now who will not be 100% behind him - it was a vital interview for the club & ETH's vision. His attitude is first class.
Let's hope ETH keeps Maguire & Shaw well out of the picture & creates a unity with the players that won against Liverpool & Arsenal.
It will take this whole season & maybe another 6 months before ETH embeds his philosophy but with Bruno, now ETH has a leader on the pitch trying to get the players on the same page.
I just want Bruno now to start scoring & creating & the confidence will go through the roof.
👍
The evidence is there. Team totally transformed since Shaw & Maguire dropped. Just need Varane to keep fit & hope Malacia can stay consistent all season.
Hopefully, you will realize soon enough that you cannot win anything with only 11 players. You need a full squad playing at their best and highly motivated. The heart of your post (I assume it is United's success) is perfect but the Maguire slander was unnecessary and ironic.
Support the TEAM. That is any and EVERY body that pulls on that Red Shirt and hope for each of them to be at their best.
@@kimbuoy1 I understand the sentiment of your response, & i am very aware success is based on an entire squad.
I have supported this club since 1992..I have lived the successes & the failures..(the biggest failure being last season's horror show)
Not once in that time have I seen a 'captain' so inept at his role than Maguire - both playing & off the field captaincy. This is not slander, it is a sad fact.
You only need to compare Bruno's passion, character & words to an interview Maguire did last season where he proclaimed he must be 'doing something right, as he has been picked to start by both managers'...EVERY interview he has given whether win, lose or draw has predominantly sounded the same '...we must do better, there are things to improve etc etc'...yet he will step onto the pitch & its like he has ignored his own advice!!
No successful manager or team, throws a player like Maguire into the starting line up in the hope that he may have a good game & risk losing points/ultimately trophies - See what Klopp did with Gomez at halftime after his absent defending vs Napoli? & Pep will only ever play Ake if he has no alternative.
Maguire is the only player i have seen at Utd in 3 decades who carries such a high profile & price tag but when chosen, brings such a nervousness to the whole team that to utilise him is so much more of a risk to morale & focus on the pitch than it is worth....case in point - 3 losses this season when he started - 7 goals conceded + captained the side vs 4 straight wins without him & with Bruno as captain & 2 goals conceded. I am not suggesting this statistic will continue all season however it is enough evidence (not even from my view point, but thankfully that of ETH), that Maguire represents too much instability to risk points.
I would love Maguire, AWB & Shaw to be a success but there must come a point where given the chances they have had...that either time is up or they humble themselves, work hard, prove to ETH & the team they are competent & can be trusted.
Maguire's performances are sufficient evidence he mustn't be anywhere near this team until he shows he can be trusted...same as Shaw. On the other hand, I & most Utd supporters have seen such improvement in McTominay that he at least is proving he can learn & i admire his character & focus given his & the team's poor prior season.
Fans will always support a player if they see on & off the pitch, that they can improve through hard work & concentration. Maguire should be looking at McTominay's attitude & learning that is how he can earn the fans respect...but by feeding his family & friends this idea that he is being unjustly targeted is yet another indication of his poor judgement & a huge indictment on his decision making as 'official' club captain.
Having a squad of 25 players is necessary for success I agree but if there are players in that squad who are clearly not upto the task & have a detrimental effect on the squad's morale, it would be nonsense to suggest using them just on the basis of rotation.
He's just so professional❤️
Ole would be proud of Bruno ❤️
I think I can say in the name of all United fans, it's been a while since we had someone we could be proud of for representing our team as captain, but having someone who can not only play like he does but can talk like this,, there is not a shred of a doubt left, this man is the man. captain my captain 🙏🙏
What a charming chap Bruno is; we have an absolute gem. Great interview.
Brilliant interview this. I already liked Bruno but now I like him even more as our future captain.
This man is a whole bag of football mixed with great personality. I'll be surprised if at the end of his career, he doesn't turn up as a coach.
Supremely knowledgeable man.
And extremely good at expressing himself too .... Great interview 👍 👏
This man deserves to wear the armband idc about his 'moaning' n 'throwing his arms about' it proves that he cares which couldn’t be said for loads of the players last season🤷🏾♂🤷🏾♂when he first came in he was unreal n even if he isn’t putting up those same numbers rn he’s contributing more with his effort off the ball n build up play anyway✅✅he’s formed a really good partnership with Eriksen also n hopefully they keep it up throughout this long old season🙏🏾🙌🏾
Amazing human being, Amazing player! Bruno ♥️
Our Portuguese magnifico. Leadership material right there.
The very first interview I have watched on this channel. This interview is worth watching again and again.
Bruno is an overall CLASS on and off the pitch. Damn! Interview laced with brilliant ideas. Respect Bruno 👏👏👏
He's my captain! He's Bruno Fernandes ❤️
Watched Part 1 yesterday. Just finished listening to it on the podcast. Now I’m here. 😁👍🏼
He is captain and he is a leader
I watched yesterday's interview twice. This interview just made me LOVE Bruno more. He is Uniteds lgend and a true LEADER. Respect Bruno 👏👏👏
Love Bruno ❤
Sometimes floats out of games whereas he should be grabbing them by the neck, but what a player, coming back to form
This is the best interview of a footballer I've ever seen. Great questions and great elaborate answers. Well done!
Great interview / conversation…thank you.
Never Change Bruno.
❤️❤️❤️ you for Who You Are.
OUR CAPTAIN.
Sure You will Get Even Better & Ruthless & More "Pain" for opponents under Ten Hag.
Forza Portugua. VAMOS Guerrero. Time for A Trophy 🏆.
#GlazersOut
What a refreshing interview where the interviewer just want's to talk about football and dig into the heart and soul of that footballer and did not try to find anything nasty or hurtful. A wonderful watch thanks.
Bruno is top lad and definitely my captain he has a leader personality and I am glad he expressed his passion for united. With proper coach and Bruno passion leadership and view more signing then start competing for titles and do what you came to do united glory glory glory man united ❤
I like this guy well.. and I am a Chelsea fan
Our Portuguese magnifico ❤️pardon Dem man who doubt you ..lots of love man you are the assist MAESTRO
you can tell he really respect ole especially since he's the one who brought him to the club. i think ole's sacking affects him a bit but he's starting to play like himself again nowadays it's glad to see.
Speaking like a true leader
Interview was spot on
It was interesting
Bruno spoke well
And you my friend conducted a great interview. You let him talk which is good
Really good interview, great questions.
Love Bruno top guy ❤
Damn he speaks so intelligently and clear I would love to listen to him in Portuguese in a similar interview.
Extremely enjoyable interview, thanks for sharing that with us. GGMU
Class interview across both videos. And that Nardwuar-like moment with the cereal was a great way to end it!
Best explanation of Ralf Rangnick's reign. It was probably naive of him to think a beaten up set of players would take to geggenpressing right off the bat! The team probably needed a more adaptive coaching, going back to basics, becoming hard to beat. Things that ETH did after Brentford. Ralf missed an opportunity there IMHO.
Amazing guy... Great work ethic and a true Portuguese magnifico!
I have no idea how so called united "fans" dislike Bruno Fernandes. I can't think of another player that has performed like him sincd Fergie left, i agree he wasn't great last season but who was apart from Ronnie? Bruno is a Leader.
This man is a true utd player. Captain my captain 🫡
I find it astounding that Maguire is still the captain. United has Ronaldo, Bruno, DDG, Varane and Casemiro and I cannot imagine how it must feel to be captained my someone with 4 relegations to his name and now he cannot even get into the starting line up.
Honestly. The reason I really don't sympathize with OLE much. He brought the Maguire rubbish on the Club. Who decides to make a Maguire captain while there is De Gea in the club? When Ten Haag maintained Maguire, I was NOT happy cos I felt that will guarantee his starts just cos he is a Captain. Remember what Maguire said that if he was playing well, the 2 coaches will not be featuring him in games. What guts! Anyways, I still blame OLE for the Horns that Maguire especially and Luke Shaw have grown in that Club.
If he was NOT playing well***
thanks for the interview adam. well done.
Big call to give your peak years to Utd. Especially as club was in turmoil & lot of fan unrest. Very difficult to win silverware with the strength of the rivals but hopefully Bruno can prove successful.
what a genuine interview
Really impressive interviews, v interesting seeing a player talk beyond the usual cliches
Great interview from our magnifico, the contrast between him and Maguire is so clear.
These 2 videos were great. Thanks Adam. Do more!
Such intelligent guy in every way
Maguire should do an interview like this and explain his side of the story
That’s nothing he could say. He was that bad!
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Here’s how it would go:
Maguire: “I’m shit a shit defender”
Interview over.
My phone wallpaper, WhatsApp wallpaper since he arrived. ❤️
EL CAPITANO ! ❤
I feel very bad about ole. It was right to sack him but he was and always will be a legend of the club.
My favorite Man Utd player for a reason❤
ETH is the Mastermind we were missing all this time post Fergie. Let's get behind our Captain Bruno and our Manager and take over the World 🌎 🔴😈
sincerely speaking from heart
Not Bruno casually doing a hostile takeover... Sorry "H". Very insightful interview with the new Captain of Manchester United.
Excellent interview and an excellent brunoooo
Make this fellow director of football too! He speaks like a United supporter (not the online fans so-called who just slag our players off to feel big but a proper man united supporter).
Excellent interview. Well done.
Absolute legend 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾💯
CLASS!
A terrific interview all around. In my country in Latin America, Chocapic is the #1 recommended cereal for young people who are training to become athletes, as it is quite cheap, tasty, full of carbs and you can have it 'dry' (without any milk) so that you don't get an upset stomach 40 minutes after having it if you're doing sports.
Chocapic Marketing Executive: "Holy Shit! I'm getting a bonus this year and I didn't even have to do anything".
Brilliant!
Without Bruno we would have dropped so many points over the past couple seasons. S tier signing
My Captain 🙌🏾🙌🏾
First time i've seen it where the interviewer us mire robotic than the footballer
9:16 Ole isnt hated, fans just didnt want him to stay as manager, glazers used him as a shield because he knew the fanbase loved him
Brilliant interview.
Thank you Bruno for backing Ole. He deserves it
Liked his interview
Even though he got sent off at Watford, Maguire was nowhere to be seen after that game. At least Bruno acted like a captain & tried to take some of the blame off of Ole
The true free role player
Future football manager here!
My Captain ❤️
my captain
The best captains I can remember all had strong characters. Maybe it is possible to be a good captain without that; but history suggests probably not.
I think Maguire does have qualities to be an important player, if not here then at another club; but he doesn't seem like he has the character to lead a team to success.
That doesn't just look like being charismatic; it's strength of character in one's own actions and behaviours. If we fall short, Bruno looks first to his own performance (so does De Gea); Maguire when he himself has had horrendous performances, has publicly put the blame on his team mates. That's not leadership.
Can we stop blaming Ronaldo for everything?! And fair play to Bruno for acknowledging he had a bad season
my captain 🐐❤
