Watch Bruno Fernandes’ horror show at Crystal Palace after giving ball away staggering 29 TIMES as fans slam midfielder

BRUNO FERNANDES put on a horror show in Manchester United’s final day defeat at Crystal Palace.

That’s after he gave the ball away a staggering TWENTY-NINE times.

Ralf Rangnick’s last game as interim manager fizzled out as the Red Devils recorded their 12th loss of the season.

And he could be having second thoughts on Fernandes’ future after the playmaker endured a torrid time in midfield.

The fan favourite only signed a lucrative new contract in April.

But Fernandes failed to inspire at Selhurst Park as United were terrorised by their opponents.

Indeed, he was anything less than a “Portuguese Magnifico” as he gave the ball away an incredible 29 times during the game.

Fernandes could not deal with the tenacity of Palace’s midfield, led by Chelsea loanee Conor Gallagher.

And his lack of influence showed in the final scoreline.

Only Burnley's Dwight McNeil lost the ball more times on the final day of the season.

And across the entire campaign, Fernandes surrendered possession the fourth-most amount of times.

Only Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold, Leeds' Raphinha and Man City's Joao Cancelo gave the ball away more in 2021/22.

Yet it should be noted that creative players tend to lose possession more often as they are always trying to find a killer pass to unlock defences.

Even so, United fans were left bemused and befuddled by Fernandes’ performance.

And few retain hope he can rediscover his form once Ten Hag presumably implements his Ajax passing tactics at Old Trafford.

One fan gasped: “I dare not even imagine if it was Pogba.”

Another said: “Such an average player.”

One wrote: “Capped it off with an assist to Zaha.”

Another chuckled: “Ten Hag watched this abysmal performance, wonder what he thinks.”
