Part one: Bruno's Old Trafford Fans' Q&A
PART ONE | Our fans quiz Bruno on away days, hostile crowds, supporting young Reds, chants and Old Trafford atmospheres…
“I think in my first season, the win against [Manchester] City at home was very, very good. I think the moment Scott [McTominay] scores to make it 2-0, the stadium came down!
“I was on the bench and probably when you are on the bench, you can feel it even more, the stands, the atmosphere, everything, the noise.
“Obviously, Liverpool [in the Emirates FA Cup], because of the game, because of the late goal, everything was very, very good. I think the European nights, they are very, very good every time. I can remember the Real Sociedad game was unbelievable.
“But if I have to say one, I would say Leeds at home. Obviously, I scored the hat-trick at home and it stays in my memory a little bit more, but I think it was 20 years after - the first time Leeds were back at Old Trafford - and we know the rivalry against them.
"The result was great and it was the first time fans were back in the stadium after COVID, so everything was perfect that day.”
