Manchester United fans name ideal next captain after Bruno Fernandes criticism
07.03.2023 - 10:05 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester United fans believe Casemiro should be the next captain of the club rather than Bruno Fernandes following the latter's display with the armband against Liverpool.
The United captaincy is a hot topic ahead of the summer as current skipper Harry Maguire has lost a lot of his authority with the armband given he is down the centre-back pecking order at the club. Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez are Erik ten Hag's favoured pairing, while Luke Shaw and Victor Lindelof have played ahead of Maguire this season.
The defender has started just 10 times across all competitions and has also been earmarked as a player, along with Anthony Martial and Alex Telles, to be sold in the summer transfer window to help fund a spending spree that is aiming to recruit a striker and midfielder. Should Maguire depart, then Ten Hag will have the job of appointing a new captain.

The leading candidate is Fernandes. The Portuguese is currently the club's vice-captain and has worn the armband more than anyone else this season when Maguire has not played. That includes the humiliating 7-0 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday.
United were demolished by their fiercest rivals and while no player offered any redeeming aspects, Fernandes has come in for particular criticism from fans and pundits alike. Many have been critical of the playmaker's body language throughout the match and how he lost his head when the goals kept flowing.
"Bruno Fernandes is stood in the centre circle with his arms raised saying why isn’t it me coming off? Honestly, I have to say that some of his behaviour in this second half has been a disgrace. He’s been brilliant for Manchester
