Manchester United legend Paul Scholes believes that Bruno Fernandes is yet to have a good game against one of the Premier League's Big Six this season.
The former Sporting Lisbon man has made a significant contribution in his first year at Old Trafford and already boasts 19 goal contributions - 11 goals and eight assists - in the current Premier League season.
However, a goal in United's 6-1 thrashing at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur is his only contribution against a Big Six team in the league this season, although he did score a thunderous free kick against Liverpool in the FA Cup.
Nevertheless, Scholes wants to see more from Fernandes in the big games after United's 0-0 draw with Arsenal at the weekend, telling Premier League Productions: "[United] can't seem to win those games.
"When you're struggling against Sheffield United the other night, you're beaten by them and then you come to a big game, they just can't win them.
"They just can't find a way of doing it. Bruno Fernandes has been disappointing in every single one of them. He's had great numbers, great assists, great goals. In the last five games against big teams, he's had no goals, no assists.
"It's really worrying and that's why United are where they're at. They're in a good position tonight but it's not a position where you think 'this team will go on to win the league'.
"They've come to Arsenal, who aren't a great team, and they haven't won the big game. There is no desperation to win it either. I don't see them throwing bodies forward.
"Arsenal weren't a threat going forward, no [Bukayo] Saka, no [Pierre-Emerick] Aubameyang. United don't do enough to win these big games, they don't throw enough bodies forward and they don't have a desperation to win them and to go on to win the league."
United's goalless stalemate with the Gunners means that they are three points behind leaders Manchester City - who have a game in hand - in the Premier League table.
