Twitter reacts as Eric Bailly celebrated four years ar Manchester United
Today marks the fourth year anniversary of Eric Bailly joining Manchester United.
Brought in by Jose Mourinho, the Ivory Coast international was the new manager’s first signing at the club.
He made an immediate impact as he won the Man of the Match award on his debut against Leicester City in the FA Community Shield. Bailly would repeat it the next week on his Premier League debut.
His performances saw him win the Premier League Player of the Month for August. The 26-year-old made 38 appearances as United won both the League Cup and the UEFA Europa League.
Unfortunately, injuries have proved to be his undoing since as he would make only 41 appearances over the next three years. During the same time, he was sidelined for 54 games. (h/t Transfermarkt)
On his day, he is one of the best defenders in the league as he has shown numerous times. However, the main challenge remains his fitness record.
Now back to full fitness, we hope he ha sput his injury problems behind him to usher in a new era of dominance.
United fans took to Twitter to respond to the player’s tweet about completing four years at the club. We take a look at a few of them below.
