Bruno Fernandes had scored three goals and made a fourth. He almost added an outrageous goal from the half-way line. He turned a possible defeat into an emphatic victory. And so it was that Luke Shaw named his outstanding player in Manchester United’s 5-2 win over Ipswich.
“I would like to speak about Kobbie [Mainoo],” the United left-back said. “I think today he was world class: so, so good, the way he controlled the game and the way he drove us forward, I know Bruno scored the hat-trick but I would put Mainoo down for man of the match. He is so young and it is such a joy to see him growing. For me, he was phenomenal today. A real leader in that middle."
