Premier League: Manchester United pushes Chelsea into crisis

Bruno Fernandes struck again this Monday evening against Brentford. The Portuguese midfielder from Manchester United delivered another assist in the Premier League, taking his tally to 19 this season. Impressive consistency for a player who, despite the ups and downs with the Red Devils, is having a high-flying season.

Bruno Fernandes now only needs one assist to equal the all-time record for assists in a Premier League season, co-held by two legends: Kevin De Bruyne and Thierry Henry, with 20. With a few more days to play, the Portuguese has plenty of time to believe it. Unless he succeeds in the next 45 minutes against the Bees.
