Speaking after a 2-0 win over Arsenal in a pre-season friendly on Saturday, the Portugal midfielder said he expects the team to step up this season.

Jadon Sancho added the second against the Gunners to wrap up an encouraging win.


When asked about the captaincy, Fernandes said of Erik ten Hag’s decision: “The manager chose me because of what I was doing last season and the way he worked with me.
