Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes looks forward to next season following the disappointing FA Cup final defeat to Manchester City.
Manchester United stand-in captain Bruno Fernandes was dejected by the FA Cup final defeat to Manchester City, but he believes they have made an important step in their climb back to the top.
