I would expect a convincing Fulham win. I never thought I would join the doom-mongers, but we have gotten that bad.

Anthony Taylor demoted to Championship duty. As I have said constantly. Crap refereeing.

As an alternative there is a local park game. Might be more suitable.

Don’t really watch soccer Saturday much but wow has it gone to shite with some of those pundits

Danny mills ..wow

Mersin contradicts himself every week.

Newcastle v Arsenal should be a good game

Fulham need a striker otherwise you would fancy them today

That has to be one of the worst Utd teams I ever seen for a league game. That midfield!

Probably win comfortably now…

That was offside but as I’ve said countless times the rule needs changing. If any part of the body is onside you should be onside.
United are going to win this. Fulham are a bit limited.
I notice a female 4th official! Should try one with Klopp, Pep and Arteta to name but three!!!!
21 mins gone. United should be ahead.

When things aren’t going your way, marginal decisions like that never go your way

Utd much better side. Fulham have nothing going forward and need a centre forward.

As a liverpool fan I love to see misery piled onto Utd as I’m sure their fans do to liverpool but even I thought that offside was wrong.

Utd all the possesion but look very open to a good counter. Question is do Fulham have the quality to keep them out and then provide a cutting edge?

William still going at 35!!
United fortunate not to be playing a better team today .

Predicting 2-0 for United here, as I agree with Sean, Fulham have very little in attack. Iwobi just showing exactly that.

Another harsh VAR call.

Offside ms are apparently black and white, but let’s send the ref to the monitor. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Maguire not offside unless he plays the ball or prevents the Fulham player from doing so.

Fulham player doesn’t have the ball so he is not challenging him for it.

Shocking game of football. Antony is shockingly bad. £90m down the toilet.

I’m not sure how he gets picked, CM.

Whack Mount on the right and get him to whip crosses in.

Agree Alfie.

When is Amad returning? Reckon he could do a job in that position. Mount is a good shout too.

Not a great game. Fulham arr poor and United not much better. Too much fear.

Good goal but Fulham are very poor.
Ten Hag needed that but to coin a phrase papers over the cracks.

Adlab, hope you’re well my good friend. Didn’t I predict a cricket score for you hahaha 🙂

What I do see is a pattern comparing a Liverpool team at the peak of the 80s and a Man United team of the middle 1990s. Both consistently successful. Where there were gaps of players needing to be filled or a player that could give a boost and make a difference, both Dalglish and Ferguson were good at finding and slotting into a 11.

Doku looks already part of the furniture. He slots on the wing nicely and consistently plays in the same manner and style. He’s effective.

And the key point to this is what he is surrounded by: Good players and players of experience. This plays a key part.

What I see United of now is making changes be it forced or unforced to the squad and the 11 and it’s not consistently paying dividends.

Wow, goal stood after all that! I thought it would be somehow ruled out.
