CBS Sports, external<\/a> pundit Jamie Carragher was in shock at what he heard – branding “awful attitude” Fernandes a “disgrace” and declaring his actions as ‘not what a Manchester United captain should be’.<\/p>\n“We said Lisandro Mart\u00ednez was bang out of order last week for calling out the hierarchy above him. For Bruno Fernandes to do that is a disgrace really,” Carragher said.<\/p>\n
“When you think about last season, he got player of the year. That was on the back of Michael Carrick becoming the manager. He wouldn’t have got that award without Michael Carrick, because Michael Carrick put him back in his rightful position and he then went on to have a fantastic season because he’s a talented footballer.<\/p>\n
“But when you think of him as a footballer, he’s a talent, but in terms of attitude and the way he goes about things, it’s not right at all.<\/p>\n
“And he’s reacted like that because he’s been brought off and he’s been embarrassed tonight by the manager as he brought him off. And when he talks about pressing, whether it’s man to man or zonal, for years, Bruno Fernandes has meant Manchester United can’t press because he does things for the crowd.<\/p>\n
“I commentate on games watching Man United and he runs all over the place like a kid in the schoolyard for the supporters. They all think he’s working hard – he’s not. He’s killing the rest of the team doing it.<\/p>\n
“Years ago, there was a captain called Bryan Robson, one of the greatest players to ever play for Man United because he played for the club, he didn’t throw the manager or the players under the bus.<\/p>\n
“He kept fighting for Manchester United and watching him throw his arms up every week in a game is an absolute disgrace, calling the manager out considering how he’s performed this season on the pitch.<\/p>\n
