“Every game you have a chance to win a trophy is very big but part of that is every game at this club is massive,” declared Fernandes at a press conference at San Mames. “As Harry [Maguire] has just said, this club is so big, from one week you can be the hero and, the next one, you’re the villain.
“As players, you just think about what we have ahead of us and what we have ahead of us is the chance to get our hands on the trophy. It won’t change the past. It won’t affect what the past has done for us either but what i can affect is the future. Probably, yes, winning a trophy gives a lot of things. In this case, a place in the Champions League and a lot of revenue for the club. It gets, obviously, more players wanting to come to the club.
“But I think this club doesn’t change much in that aspect because I think every player wants to play for Manchester United. This is a thing that will never change. The name of this club speaks for itself. But the main thing, of course, is what is ahead of us and that is a massive final, against a team we know very well.
“But in a competition different to the Premier League so it’s going to be a completely different game.”
