Bruno has met season-ticket holders to review Old Trafford’s atmosphere. Part one drops at 08:00 BST on Wednesday…
“I have always said I feel honoured by that,” says Bruno, referencing his own chant. “My first game, I had a song straightaway and I couldn’t hear it because I was so much into the game, emotions were everywhere. My brother was in the Stretford End with you guys.
“At the end of the game, he asked ‘Have you heard your song?’ and I asked: ‘What song, what are you talking about? I heard many things but I can’t remember!’
“Then he sent me the video because, obviously, as an older brother, he was very proud of seeing me for the first time at Old Trafford and knowing that I had a song straightaway from the first game was something to be proud of.
“It is something that I think, for everybody who has a song, they really like it, they really enjoy it. Even when you are in your lowest moments and then, with just a tackle, with just a run back, with just getting a corner, that cheers you up and gets you going even more.
“Knowing sometimes there will be criticism, some boos, some moments where the fans will be upset, but you have to remember also all of the times they are cheering you up, singing your song, singing songs for the club.
“I have some songs from the club that I like. I put them on in the car with my kids. Whenever they come to the games and they hear one… I think the one we have, ‘Take Me Home [Country Roads]’, we don’t have the actual song [chant] on Spotify and my sons are a little bit upset with that.
“But the one they listen to the most is ‘Glory, Glory, Man United’ because they went to Wembley, they felt that song so loudly in that moment, they have seen us lifting the trophies there. I think that is probably the favourite one for them and for me too.”
Watch part one of Bruno’s fans’ Q&A from 08:00 BST on Wednesday.
