Why MU failed to Win the Premier League

Meanwhile, Manchester City continued to go fast. They eventually won the 2020/21 Premier League with three matches remaining.

Crucial Moment

Bruno Fernandes believes that this moment has dashed hopes of winning Manchester United.

"We are aware this season that playing against teams fighting relegation is more complicated than we imagined," Bruno Fernandes told ESPN Brazil.

"We lost four points when we were first against Sheffield United and West Brom and it was the four points that made the difference for City so they can come close and overtake us."

More Focus

For this reason, Bruno Fernandez wants his team to be more focused when fighting teams that are struggling at the bottom.

"This makes us understand that we have to be focused and aware that all the games will be difficult and it is important for us to continue to fight for the title," he continued.

"That's where we failed, especially in January, which was our worst moment when we could have extended our lead over City, which didn't happen."

"City, deservedly, passed us and were able to lead us by a great distance."

Collective Trophy

This is the second time in a row Bruno Fernandes has won the award. Even so, Fernandes prefers to win collective trophies rather than individuals.

"My priority right now is to win trophies," Fernandes told ESPN Brasil.

"I think collective trophies are more important than individual trophies because here we are working for each other and if this works, it takes us to a collective trophy."

Bring MU Champion

Manchester United will face Villarreal in the Europa League final. Fernandes emphasized that he wanted to bring the Red Devils to lift the championship trophy.

"I think the club has grown a lot since before I arrived, it is in a developing phase and the players are increasingly understanding the mindset you have to have to play at a club like Man United, who want to win and win titles," he continued.

"That's what we are here for. And, of course, I feel part of that and I want to help the club develop, to win and hopefully we can grow even more to fight for more trophies."
