The question has been asked numerous times since he made his debut in this fixture 11 months ago. Just where would Manchester United be without Bruno Fernandes?
When the club’s new £68million signing was thrown in against Wolves just six days after joining from Sporting Lisbon, and with United in some turmoil, no-one expected the Portuguese playmaker to have the impact he has.
That game finished goalless and this one was heading that way too until Fernandes launched the late attack that led to United’s injury-time winner from Marcus Rashford.

It’s hard to think of a player who has had such a transformative effect on a team.
