Portugal boss Roberto Martinez has heaped praise on his key midfielder this week.
Martinez, whose side have qualified for Euro 2024 believes Bruno Fernandes is a manager's dream player.
Fernandes has been in scintillating form with his nation, scoring four goals and providing seven assists in ensuring Portugal finished top of their group.
Bruno Fernandes is a very good professional," Martinez told reporters when asked about United legend Gary Neville's criticism of the Portuguese star's attitude.
A player who has seven assists, an intelligent player, who adapts to the qualities of his teammates, who gives a lot of tactical flexibility.
Bruno Fernandes is a dream for a coach! He needs training to understand the idea of the game and has a high level of execution.
Technically he has a vision of the game that I think is of superlative quality and I really like his work. He's adapted to many positions, he gives structure, he gives balance, he's a key player for us."
