At this point, Bruno can retire/leave the Premier League as one of the best offensive midfielders in 21st Century. There are loads of stats as him creating more chances than anyone else (including Kevin De Bruyne who’s also an amazing chance creator).

I really don’t get the excuses of Hojlund having ‘shit service’ in the Premier League given who’s playing next to, but Hojlund is suddenly a lethal goalscorer in the UCL.

    You say you don’t get the excuse of him not getting the service in the PL but can you point to any games where he’s missed loads of chances? How are they defining chances in the Bruno stats? If he passes to Rashford and he shoots from 25 yards, does that count as Bruno creating a chance for Rashford? It’s a stat that seems weird when it’s well known that one of United’s main issues at the moment is that they’re struggling to create chances. They win the ball in the opposition half and then don’t seem to know what to do with it.
