Bruno Fernandes says his stellar form since he arrived at Manchester United in January is not the only reason why the club's fortunes have improved on the pitch.
After an inconsistent first half of the season, United are unbeaten in the nine games Fernandes has featured in since his ?47 million ($58 million) move from Sporting Lisbon.
In the Premier League, United are unbeaten in five games and up to fifth place, firmly in the battle for Champions League places.
The midfielder has scored three goals and made four assists.

"Everyone has a different mould to play," he said.

Asked about the incident, Fernandes said: "I talked about this with some friends. Some people think, 'Pep won everything, who is Bruno to do this to him?'
