'Sensational' Bruno Fernandes has made 'a hell of a difference' to Manchester United, says Paul Scholes as Red Devils star scores and assists in the same game AGAIN to help beat Newcastle

Paul Scholes has heaped praise on 'sensational' Bruno Fernandes as the Portuguese maestro reached double figures for both goals and assists following Manchester United's win over Newcastle.

Despite having a relatively quiet game by his lofty standards, Fernandes bagged a goal and assist to help Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side see off Steve Bruce's strugglers to move back up to second in the league.

The 26-year-old has emerged as United's talisman and has transformed the club's fortunes since his £68million arrival from Sporting Lisbon last January, consistently putting in standout performances to keep Solskjaer's side with an outside chance of winning the title.
