Graeme Souness insists Bruno Fernandes is not cut out for captaincy and that he wouldn't trust the Manchester United man 'in the trenches' of a Premier League battle.
Fernandes has been ever-present for United this season and has often worn the armband in the absence of club captain Harry Maguire. The defender's future at Old Trafford is uncertain, with Erik ten Hag likely to appoint a new leader over the summer.
Portuguese midfielder Fernandes looks to be the obvious choice given his experience in the role this season, but he came in for heavy criticism during the 7-0 defeat at Liverpool. Several Reds were accused of giving up at Anfield that evening, with Fernandes in particular singled out.
