Downes has been amazed by Fernandes' performance, especially after knowing little about him before his arrival.
"What a player, what a player," Downes said.
"I obviously had no idea about him when he arrived and he is so good.
"I'm probably doing the club a big favour speaking about this but he is some player. He's similar to Tyler (Dibling) really. He's strong and has a good first touch.
"But his work ethic, you can see he wants to win every game. He is a pleasure to play with. He is a great guy. He is learning English and I'm sure his character will come out a bit more."
