Ruben Amorim said Manchester United needed to help Bruno Fernandes win trophies after the Portuguese midfielder scored three goals to secure a place in the last eight of the Europa League.
Fernandes scored two penalties and a third goal was scored well when the Amorim team won 4-1 against Real Sociedad on March 14, 2025. In the aggregate the Red Devils won 5-2 and will face Lyon next month in the quarter-finals.
His slick appearance did not stop there. In the final game before the international break, the 30-year-old midfielder scored one goal and two assists in a 3-0 win over Leicester City in the Premier League on March 17, 2025.
He is now directly involved in 14 of Manchester United's last 16 goals, including seven goals in seven new games.
"We've talked about Bruno a lot. We know that sometimes he's frustrated. We know he really wants to win."

"So, when things don't go well, he changes positions to chase the ball. Sometimes he needs to trust his teammates, but when we need him, he's always there."
"He can dribble forward, he can score goals, he can defend. He is the perfect captain for our team. We need to help him win the title," said Amorim.
Prior to the international break, Manchester United's journey was fairly positive. After holding Sociedad 1-1 in Spain, they drew 1-1 against Arsenal before two straight wins afterwards.
The victory over Real Sociedad is one of the best performances under the leadership and makes hopes to finish the season with Champions League trophies and qualifiers alive.
"Over the past week we have shown that we are ready for a game like this. The show against Arsenal is not beautiful, but it really helps us to believe."
"Since the first minute we continue to believe that we can advance to the next round. This week is a different week."
"We are facing a problem right now, we are showing the future. This match is really good for everyone at the club," said Amorim.
After the international break, Manchester United will travel to Nottingham Forest headquarters on April 2, 2025.
