Twitter Reacts as Manchester United Finally Confirm Signing of Bruno Fernandes

​Well look at us, who would've thought it? Not me. Bruno Fernandes has finally been confirmed as a Manchester United player.


After months and months and months of tiresome speculation, United finally have the solution to all their problems - a creative centre midfielder.

Despite us hoping for a ​spectacular announcement of the signing, the Red Devils' media team opted for an surprisingly muted offering. Just a nice graphic of Fernandes in his new red jersey. 

Luckily, there was plenty of top quality content to get our teeth stuck into in the wider social mediaverse - including a lovely welcome message from the Red Devils skipper. 

The first outpouring of emotion came from United fans who, quite frankly, were just relieved that the deal was over the line. 

We feel your pain people, don't worry...

​​Fernandes' arrival also ushered in a debate over just how good he really is. 

Unsurprisingly - this is social media we are talking about after all - opinions were polarised. 

​​

​​

​​Attention soon turned to when the playmaker might make his debut and - much more importantly.- what squad number he will wear. 

Evidence seemed to suggest that the Portugal international would be donning the 18 shirt. However, there were more than a few dissenters.

We cannot wait to see how this fascinating numerical saga ends!

​​

​​In the midst of all this excitement, disgruntled United fans continued to air their grievances at the current regime.

Will a hat trick of assists on Fernandes' debut be enough to quell these fans' discontent? No, almost certainly not.
