I&#8217;ve always said I will be here until the club says to me that it&#8217;s time to go,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">&#8220;I&#8217;m eager to do more, to be able to bring the club the great days. In the day that the club thinks that I&#8217;m too much or it&#8217;s time to part ways, football is like this, you never know it. But I&#8217;ve always said it and I keep my word in the same way.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">&#8220;If the club thinks it&#8217;s time to part ways because they want to do some cashing in or whatever, it&#8217;s what it is, and football sometimes is like this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Fernandes has so often been the hero for United in recent years but he struggled to stamp his authority on proceedings against Tottenham in Bilbao.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">&#8220;It\u2019s very sad. We wanted to win more than anything in this final,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s a very sad day because we&#8217;ve done some very good things in this competition until today.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">&#8220;But today was the day that mattered, the most important day of the competition. It was the day we could have been in the history of the Europa League, but it&#8217;s not like that. And football is cruel, and it&#8217;s been our turn to lose.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">&#8212;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Here at the Manchester Evening News, we\u2019re dedicated to bringing you the best <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk\/all-about\/manchester-united-fc\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Manchester United<\/a> coverage and analysis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Make sure you don\u2019t miss out on the latest United news by joining our free WhatsApp group.
