'Bruno no longer has the creative burden': United fans applaud Eriksen after Atleti game

Man United were defeated by Atletico Madrid 1-0 in a friendly but several players put in excellent performances.

The Red Devils new signing Christian Eriksen came off the bench in the 69th minute and had a standout game, showing his playmaking skills.

Here is how United fans on Twitter reacted to the Dane's showing.

Hesham Bilal-Hafiz: "Eriksen looked brilliant in that cameo, excited to see him play for us regularly this year. Gutted Elanga and Maguire couldn’t convert his passes.

"Bruno no longer has the creative burden. Atletico trying to injure our players and play dirty in a friendly game was awful to see."

Aidan Walsh: "Christian Eriksen is going to be a special player for us this season -- top quality footballer"

United Peoples TV: "Eriksen has made me remember how starved we've been of a passer with that combination of quality and consistency. Baller."

Mark Goldbridge: "You can see already Eriksen is going to walk straight into this starting 11."

ManUtd Analytics: "Eriksen! Such a good player, one and two touch, vision and execution. Can see him playing as one of two eights or forming more a pivot with Fred and Fernandes at number 10. Quality."

Lyés: "Eriksen on a free is the best business we’ve done in years"

ًEllis: "I’ve seen enough. Christian Eriksen is the best midfielder in the Premier League by some distance don’t let these casuals tell you otherwise."
