Bruno Fernandes has revealed that Alejandro Garnacho believes he has “lost faith” from some of the Manchester United support.

Garnacho scored United’s third goal in their 3-0 win over Leicester on Sunday but his celebration was muted celebration.

And Fernandes has explained that the 20-year-old winger feels he doesn’t have the backing of some sections of the Old Trafford fanbase.

“It was a good day at work, I have to say,” Fernandes told BBC Sport. “We have a lot of players with big qualities, but people can get too excited after one game and too down after another.

“Garnacho scored a banger but didn't celebrate like he should because he thinks he has lost faith from some fans.

“I told him people will always moan but lots of people like you and enjoy what you do.

"I told him to celebrate, it was something special. He is a special player, we have difference makers.

“They are the ones who win us games. We want them to score every game but that isn't going to happen.”

Ruben Amorim will take charge at United on Monday and Fernandes is in good form ahead of his compatriot's arrival with four goals in his last four games.

“It was a long time that I wasn’t scoring and now goals are coming in the last few games,” he added. “Another clean sheet was important for us to bring back the fortress we had here. We have to keep doing that and we have to improve.

“Ruud van Nistelrooy fills the club, he loves the club, he wants to bring joy to the players. He brought everyone with a smile to the games, he just wanted us to enjoy it. We wanted to say goodbye as a manager for him properly because he did good things for us.

“It’s a new era, a new manager means everything changes but what hasn’t changed is that this club has to get back to where it belongs."
