Fans of Manchester United had mixed feelings after their 4-0 win over Everton on Sunday. Joshua Zirkzee and Marcus Rashford scored two goals each to help the team do an excellent job, but then something unexpected happened that made everyone at Old Trafford hold their breath. Bruno Fernandes, the captain and one of the team's most reliable players, walked off the field with what looked like an injury, which made people worry that he might not be able to play in the important game against Arsenal.
However, hope appeared quickly. Ruben Amorim, Manchester United's head coach, addressed these concerns during a press conference on Monday. He confirmed that Fernandes is ready to play. This news came as a relief to fans, who understand how important Fernandes is to United's attacking style.
The stakes are high as United gets ready to play Arsenal. The Gunners have been playing very well . In their last three games, they've won all three and scored a phenomenal 13 goals. Fernandes's presence on the pitch will be very important for United's plan. He can make changes and keep the midfield under control, which might swing the odds in favor of Manchester United.
With Manchester United wanting to keep up their recent winning streak, having their captain on the game will be very important. Now, the game against Arsenal next week is going to be exciting, with Fernandes at the heart of it all and ready to lead his team. Fans can take a deep breath—their hero is back and ready to do his job.
United will be without Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo because they are both suspended after getting five yellow cards this season. Fernandes, on the other hand, is set to play. Leny Yoro who has been healing from a foot injury since the beginning of the season, is finally going to be able to join the team. He might not start, but his presence adds depth.
