    We desperately need better quality elsewhere on the park to not just sun more matches. We need better players to take some of the attention away from Bruno to protect him more. Teams may see him as our only world class outfield player and so will carry on kicking pumps out of him.

    Another reason we need to spend in the Summer.

    Bruno thrives off it and dives all over the park, him and Gordon will be representing Team GB at the Olympics.

    10m Synchronized dive.

    Aye. Bruno has been class like. I think having Joelinton and Willock around him as benefited him alot.

    I'm impressed with his ability to win fouls frequently. If hes not creating, he's defending well.

    When he first came I thought he'd get bullied a bit, but he fit it quite quickly.

    No worries about Bruno here, he's been flying around for a year now getting stuck in to tackles, winning fouls etc. worst he's got is a little sprain on his ankle (@Roy Munson ) from trying to win a tackle and that kept him out for about 45 mins so far. The South Americans are a hardy little bunch of ****ers even though they do love a good roll around if someone brushes by them.

    Fall over is a tactical part of the game now

    We all hate it, I thinks it's embarrassing when our lot do it, but it is what it is.

    We win a lot of free kicks cos of Bruno and that helps

    He's tough tbh, he likes a battle in the middle of midfield.

    We've had our "talented but injured all the time" like Dyer, Woodgate, Carroll etc, Bruno isn't that, he stays fit.
