From the source

Bruno Fernandes has unwittingly become the symbol of everything wrong with Michael Carrick’s Man Utd, and it has come at the cost of one wish fulfilled after five years.

It looks like a matter of when, and not if, Michael Carrick gets sacked by Man Utd, ending a turbulent spell that began from the very first matchday.

It will crash and burn just like Bruno Fernandes, who has come nowhere near matching the heights of last season under the same manager. Ironically, he’s now getting what he asked for five years earlier, only this time, he won’t like it one bit.
