- Roy Keane has launched a scathing attack on Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, labelling his pursuit of the Premier League assist record a "circus act".
- Speaking on The Overlap, Keane expressed fury that Fernandes appeared to prioritise individual accolades over the team's collective success, particularly after he equalled the single-season assist record of 20 this past weekend.
- The former United midfielder highlighted Fernandes' post-match admission of forgoing shooting opportunities to make passes during United’s 3-2 victory against Nottingham Forest on Sunday.
- Keane questioned Fernandes' mindset, stating that a captain should not be "bogged down" by individual records and suggesting this approach would prevent the team from winning trophies.
- He also criticised Fernandes for showing visible frustration when teammates failed to convert chances he created, arguing that as captain, he should be offering encouragement instead.
