Erik ten Hag moaned at £46.6m Manchester United player for bickering with Andre Onana - journalist

Manchester United’s poor run of form continued on Saturday when they failed to win against Bournemouth.

Erik ten Hag’s side had won just one of their previous five Premier League matches heading into the game against Bournemouth away from home on Saturday afternoon.

Manchester United are not going to finish in the top four of the Premier League table this season and may not even get into Europe next campaign.

On Saturday afternoon, United, who are planning to hand Willy Kambwala a bumper new contract, played out a 2-2 draw with Bournemouth away from home in the league.

Bruno Fernandes scored both goals for the Red Devils, first in the 31st minute and then from the penalty spot in the 65th minute.

The £46.6 million (Sky Sports) Portugal international attacking midfielder, though, was the subject of a moan from United manager Ten Hag in the opening minutes of the match, according to Manchester Evening News journalist Samuel Luckhurst.

As you can see below, Fernandes, a player opposition fans often get frustrated with, was arguing with United goalkeeper Andre Onana. Ten Hag was not impressed with the midfielder and asked him to calm down.

United are now seventh in the Premier League table with 50 points from 32 matches, level on points with Newcastle United, who are sixth.

The Red Devils will take on Coventry City in the semi-finals of the FA Cup next weekend.

Bruno Fernandes stats

While pundits often tend to criticise Bruno Fernandes for showing his frustrations on the pitch, I have to say that the Manchester United playmaker does have some decent stats.

Fernandes has scored 10 goals and given nine assists in 41 matches in all competitions for United this season. The playmaker has created 14 big chances in the league campaign.

Against Bournemouth on Saturday, Fernandes took three shots, had a pass accuracy of 80.6%, won two headers, took 94 touches, made two tackles and three clearances, and put in four crosses.
