Man Utd manager Solskjaer praises Bruno Fernandes for improving decision making

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes Bruno Fernandes is improving his decision making.

The Portuguese playmaker assisted compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo for United's first goal and also played a role in Edinson Cavani's goal in the 3-0 victory over Tottenham on Saturday.

Speaking after the game, Solskjaer said: "He [Fernandes] shows his quality where he plays them passes, great pass for Cristiano's goal.

"You know I've been on to him about decision making, because of course in some games we've been a little bit wasteful and maybe too risky, but that's Bruno in a [nutshell], he has to be allowed to play that pass if sees a pass, if he sees Cristiano, or sees [Marcus] Rashford, sees Cavani, [Mason] Greenwood.

"When he sees those players, you have to allow him to play them passes. But he's getting better at his decision making and that's good."
