But is he a loose cannon attitude wise?

Or maybe Fernandes is one those that could be on the way out
Also seems Villa and Arsenal maybe speaking to his agents as well

Would be a quality signing if it happens and exactly what Man Utd need. Don't remember many people complaining about Cantona, Keane or Rooney having a short fuse. I think that issue is massively overstated.
This. With brass knobs on.
Nothing to suggest that. He’s been sent off a couple of times but so what? Cantona assaulted a fan but he was a half decent player.

Possibly. For me, there were flashbacks to Pierre van Hooijdonk when Cunha was linked with us! (Apologies for the ancient reference!)
I would like to think that Amorim and Fernandes have sat down more than once and had this discussion. And I would hope that Bruno at least gives the manager a summer transfer window and a full season to see what trajectory it puts the club on.

He assaulted a back room staff member from another team and ripped his glasses off.
From behind !
There will be others here resorting to Google to understand that reference!

Massive game in the hunt for CL places tonight.
There is a potential world in which Forest, Newcastle and Villa all qualify for the CL at the expense of Chelsea and Man City.
That would be immense! It would be almost everything the PL has tried to avoid for the last 20-odd years!

It would seem a bit strange to be spending that level of money on the type of player they already have who is one of their better players
If he was more a 9 then I could see it
Unless Fernandes was looking to go
Blimey that’s a blast from the past - did he go on strike ?

Yeah! Long story short, he was annoyed at the club for selling Kevin Campbell (as we all were - they were excellent together) and demanded a transfer. When it wasn’t granted, he buggered off and refused to play!

Cunha is class. He just loves a red
Reminds me of diego costa in a way .. in that he would score goals and causes issues but every now and then you would lose him for a few games for a silly red
However who cares if he is that spark on the pitch
One of if not the best player I've seen play for us was dicanio, he was mental. Didn't know what attitude he would show up with that day
There was a story from don Hutchinson about him. Roeder had set out training exercise... Midfielders passing the ball long to attackers
Dicanio announces "no today I play midfield" deliberately overhit every ball over the fences , ruined the session. He then stormed off on his little bike home .. next day comes in "Paolo sorry.. I baked you tiramisu" blooming nutter.. but that goal Vs Wimbledon. My god

Seemed to have issues at Celtic and Benfica as well so definitely the proverbial loose cannon
Harry Redknapp did a whole 20 minute piece on Paolo when we were at a charity golf day and dinner was later and he was asked to a do Q&A. Whole place in stitches and Harry was adamant every word had been as it happened

Looked clear cut to me. Surprised it took so long to alert the ref. Pep for some reason is having kittens.No idea how anyone doesn’t think that’s a pen

Apparently if the offenders puts their arms in the air as another part of their body wipes out a player, then apparently it isn't a foul (when it goes against your team anyway)No idea how anyone doesn’t think that’s a pen
