Manchester United fans react to Nani performance for Orlando City

Manchester United fans were delighted to watch former winger Nani put in an excellent performance for Orlando City in the MLS.

The 32-year-old made over 200 appearances for the Reds before leaving to join Turkish side Fenerbahce in the summer of 2015.

Nani had spells with Valencia and Lazio before opting to move to the United States in February, signing a three-year-contract with Orlando City as one of their designated players.

Nani has made 30 appearances for the club so far, scoring 12 goals and rolled back the years with a trademark piece of skill and finish against New England Revelution.

After a slick 'Cruyff' turn just outside the area, the Portuguese forward curled home a wonderful strike that left the goalkeeper with no chance.

Manchester United fans took to social media to reminisce about his performances and some claimed they would have him back at the club.

Here is what they had to say:

Back in the side?

Had it all

Unstoppable

Bold statement

What a player

X-Factor
