曼联主教练滕哈格表示与葡萄牙中场球员B费合作很快乐，因为他在对阵阿斯顿维拉的比赛中表现出色，帮助曼联以1-0获胜。

The Reds’ skipper on the day scored the only goal of a well-contested affair, which saw United edge out Unai Emery’s in-form visitors, with Fernandes’ first-half strike the difference to end the Villans’ 10-match unbeaten league run.

在这场竞争激烈的比赛中，曼联队队长B费攻入唯一进球，以1-0险胜状态良好的客队维拉，B费在上半场的进球成为双方的分水岭，终结了维拉10场不败的联赛战绩。

Fernandes was typically tenacious in getting the goal, squeezing in a rebound from a tight angle, after Marcus Rashford had seen a low shot saved, for his 100th league goal of his professional career – 42 of which have now come with the Reds.

B费在攻入进球时表现出了他的典型韧劲，从一个狭窄的角度挤进了一记抢点球，这是他职业生涯中的第100个联赛进球，其中42个进球是在曼联队打入的。

Aside from his goalscoring contribution, our no.8 was ever creative, unlocking the high line deployed by the visitors on several occasions, finding the likes of Marcus Rashford and Christian Eriksen in space in behind the Villa backline.

除了他在进攻方面的贡献之外，我们的8号在多次突破对手的高位防线方面也非常有创造性，为马库斯·拉什福德和克里斯蒂安·埃里克森等队友创造了空间。

United had to stay strong in the defensive aspect of the game, though, as our lead remained at just a one-goal margin, and those intangible, mental traits displayed by Bruno were among the qualities highlighted by manager Erik ten Hag after the game.

尽管我们的领先只有一个进球，曼联在比赛的防守方面也必须保持强大，而B费展现出来的精神特质是滕哈格经理在比赛后强调的品质之一。

When quizzed by reporters in his post-match press conference about Bruno’s resilience, the boss said: “He [Bruno] is so tough. A couple of weeks ago, there was questioning about his captaincy, it’s crazy, because he is such a big leader by example.

当被记者在赛后新闻发布会上询问布鲁诺的顽强时，滕哈格主帅说：“他（布鲁诺）非常坚强。几周前，有人质疑他的队长能力，这太疯狂了，因为他是一个很好的榜样领袖。

“He gives so much energy to the team, besides his smartness, his determination, his passion and his resilience. So, yeah, I think this team are so happy.

“他为球队带来了很多能量，除了他的聪明才智、决心、激情和韧性。所以，我认为这支球队非常高兴。

“We need such players if you want to win games and if you want to win trophies.”

“如果你想赢得比赛和奖杯，我们需要这样的球员。”

The midfielder was playing on the right-hand side of our frontline against Villa – a role he has filled admirably on occasion this term.

在与阿斯顿维拉的比赛中，这位中场球员在我们的前线右侧担任角色，这个赛季他曾在一些场次中出色地完成了这一角色。

While we’re more accustomed to seeing Bruno in a more central attacking midfield role, he’s proven an adaptable figure all over the pitch.

虽然我们更习惯于在中央进攻中场位置上看到B费的表现，但他在全场上也是一个适应性很强的球员。

The Portuguese has also featured in a deeper midfield role of late, impressing in our last home league win against Everton in that position earlier this month.

最近，这位葡萄牙球员还在更深的中场位置上发挥作用，在本月早些时候对埃弗顿的主场联赛胜利中表现出色。

So it was of little surprise that Ten Hag also made a point of underlining Bruno’s versatility and importance across multiple positions.

因此，滕哈格也特别强调了B费的多才多艺和在多个位置上的重要性，这一点并不让人意外。

“He can play several roles and also, in that perspective, you need players like Bruno to be successful,” continued the boss.

“他可以扮演多种角色，在这个层面上，你需要像B费这样的球员来取得成功，”主教练继续说道。

“We have seen against Everton, he can play a deeper role and he brings passes. As a [no.] 10, we know what he can [do], but also from the side.

“我们在与埃弗顿的比赛中看到，他可以扮演一个更深的角色，并带来传球。作为10号球员，我们知道他能做什么，但他也可以从边路发挥作用。”

“First, he’s a very good presser, he understands the moment when to close down, when to bring the opponent in trouble. He knows also when to run back, to track back, and to close passing lines to close opponents.

“首先，他是一个非常出色的前压球员，他了解何时去逼抢，何时让对手陷入麻烦。他也知道何时退回防守，追回球，关闭传球路线来限制对手。

“So even if our press gets beat, he knows when to get back and then, of course, he can play in between the lines and give the pass, but also, he can for himself get behind the lines.

“因此，即使我们的前压被破，他也知道何时回防。当然，他可以在两条线之间打传球，但他也可以自己跑到防线后方。

“He has so many skills and it’s a pleasure to work with players like him.”

“他有很多技能，与这样的球员一起工作是一种享受。”
