Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has named the Premier League player he finds most annoying to play against. Speaking candidly, the Portuguese midfielder said the player’s style, constant movement, and on-pitch behavior make games uncomfortable and mentally demanding for opponents.

Fernandes explained that the annoyance does not come from disrespect but from how effective the player is. According to him, some footballers know how to disrupt rhythm, press aggressively, and get under opponents’ skin without breaking the rules, which can frustrate even experienced players.

He added that such players are often very intelligent and understand the mental side of football. Fernandes noted that while fans may see only talent, players on the pitch feel the pressure created by nonstop pressing, quick challenges, and clever positioning.

The United star concluded that facing annoying opponents is part of top-level football. He said learning to stay calm and focused against such players is what separates good players from great ones in the Premier League.
