And that included the new club captain pointing the finger at himself in the mirror. 3 Bruno Fernandes has taken on the role as Manchester United captain Credit: Getty The Portuguese playmaker inherited the armband from Harry Maguire this summer and knows the pressure is on to deliver for the Red Devils . The club had a mixed 2022-23 season with the Carabao Cup win, FA Cup final, third-placed finish but a disappointing European exit and that embarrassing 7-0 thumping at Anfield - in which Fernandes was particularly criticised . Erik ten Hag signed Mason Mount to bolster the midfield while Andre Onana appears a wise signing to succeed David De Gea between the sticks. Asked if there is an expectation for Mount to stand up and deliver following his £60million switch to Old Trafford, Fernandes said: "He has a point to prove, like everyone else. "I have a point to prove. So does Licha [Martinez], Casemiro, Rapha [Varane], Andre [Onana], Harry [Maguire], Victor [Lindelof]. "It's not about Mason. He doesn't have to prove anything more than anyone else. "He's at a big club and he knows the expectations on him will be big."

Mount appeared in the friendlies wins against Leeds, Lyon and Arsenal as well as the defeat to Real Madrid. And he looks set to be a key cog in the United starting XI as they start their Premier League campaign against Wolves on August 14. Fernandes added on Mount : "We need that aggression and passion, we need players to be like that in games. "I said a couple of years ago that he is one of the best players in the Premier League. "We're really happy t){kind=link}
