The Portuguese midfielder says he feels a sense of nervousness before every match, not because he's scared, but because it helps him stay focused and engaged.
This restlessness drives him to stay attentive, whether he's on the pitch, on the bench, or watching from home.
Fernandes explains that he gets even more nervous when he's watching the game and seeing his teammates struggle.
He says he can't just sit quietly at home, he needs to be loud and active, like he's still part of the game.
Fernandes believes his nervous energy helps him stay mentally sharp and connected to the game.
