The 28-year-old stored selecting his likes Marcus Rashford and Antony could have had at least two assists whenever they wanted and had it not been for some lavish finishing.
He made a total of 32 final third passes while completing the eight long balls, which is the most among his teammates.
His six key passes meant that he once again ranks high in the benchmark, where he would have scored two goals for himself had it not been for Pickford’s agility.
While United held most of the ball, he was usually the deepest of the three midfielders and was the same against Brentford in the middle of the week.
ETH’s new tactic worked
Saturday’s performance was brighter as he seems to gradually adapt more and more to playing sixes when needed.
United No 8 has not once evaded defensive duties while making two passes, saving seven balls and blocking a shot.
With Eriksen returning and Casemiro ready to return next week, Fernandes must return to his favorite number 10 role.
But Ten Hag has found an alternative to the duo with Fernandes sitting deep, and this trick could work against the defensive teams coming to Old Trafford.
