​Man Utd midfielder Bruno Fernandes: We're developing winning habit

Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes believes the side has developed a habit of winning.

The Red Devils have now won four Premier League games in a row, besting Liverpool, Southampton, Leicester, and Arsenal since losing their opening two games of the season.

United defeated the Gunners 3-1 at Old Trafford, with Marcus Rashford scoring a counter-attacking brace in the second half.

"It has to become a habit," Bruno told MUTV.

"We know that, playing for this club, [winning] has to be a habit. We have to do that. We know that sometimes we get a result, sometimes we don't, but the fight and the spirit and the togetherness has to always be there to get three points."

He added: "I thought everyone was compact.

"The togetherness was there, the fighting spirit and everything and that's why we get the three points and that's why we have a performance like that.

"Sometimes you have to be deep, you have to defend, you have to defend your own box because the other team has quality and can cause you problems. If you do like we did toda, you don't concede many and you score more than them.

"We know we can be a threat on the counter-attack and we can also play a little bit more and we have to play a little bit more, we know that."
