Bruno Fernandes joins elite club

With a goal and two assists on Saturday Bruno Fernandes not only helped Manchester United to a convincing victory over Bournemouth, he equaled a club record in the process.

Portuguese star scored six goals and assisted five more in nine Premier League appearances since his arrival in February make him the joint-quickest Man Utd player to reach 10 goal involvements in the competition, alongside united legend Eric Cantona and Dutch super-star Robin van Persie.

Cantona scored five goals and had five assists in his first nine PL outings in a Man Utd shirt, while Van Persie managed seven goals and three assists.

Though Bruno is joint-quickest for Manchester United, he is just joint sixth quickest in Premier league history to reach 10 goal involvements. Manchester City star Sergio Augero and Mick Quinn leads the pack by reaching target within six matches.
