Bruno Fernandes pleased with Man Utd debut

Bruno Fernandes was satisfied with his debut for Manchester United on Saturday.

The midfielder played from the start for United's 0-0 draw with Wolves.

Afterwards, he told Sport TV: "It is a mix of emotions, I am very happy to be able to be here for a short time and to have had the chance to play so soon. Playing at Old Trafford has a very special flavor for me, it was a stadium that I wanted to play, a club where I always wanted to play, it's a dream come true.

"It's a different game. Wolverhampton have a very intense team, they play a lot on the counterattack but with a lot of quality too. I don't know if all the games will be the same, but the intensity is very high, the game is very active with a few stops. It's different and that's why I wanted to try playing here. In my opinion it's the best championship in the world. I think I'm going to enjoy it and I hope to grow and help the team more and more.

"The coach asked me to be myself, to continue working and to do what I had been doing at Sporting. Trying to help my colleagues, helping the team to create more chances for goals and opportunity. The message he passed was very positive, to enjoy the game, the group has also helped me."
