Man Utd's Bruno Fernandes blasted for "lashing out wildly" against Liverpool and Arsenal

Ian Wright declared Bruno Fernandes was "lucky not to get sent off" against Liverpool and Arsenal as he delivered a scathing verdict on the under-fire Manchester United playmaker.

Fernandes picked up a booking in both Premier League fixtures as United were beaten 4-0 at Anfield last Wednesday and 3-1 at the Emirates three days later. However, many fans felt he deserved more severe punishment for a late lunge on Trent Alexander-Arnold and stamp on Nuno Tavares, with VAR checking the incidents but choosing not to upgrade to a red card.

The Portugal international's reckless challenges have come as he endures a poor run of form without a goal or an assist to his name in over two months. As a result, Wright insists he is not a productive presence in the Red Devils starting XI at present.
