    Fernandes and Shaw didn’t cover themselves in glory but the most annoying thing about that goal is the linesman flagging for offside just prior to it against Eriksen when United had a good counter on and he was well onside. Are they not supposed to keep their flag down?

      On the wings they can raise it now.

      He should be doing his job properly though.

    Well deserved by Fulham. United can't be expecting to win games when they give up after scoring. So poor.

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed. They have not been able to put games to bed for awhile now.

      ETH, who brought on McTominay instead of Garnacho for Elanga (who is poor anyway - and shouldn't be playing) has a lot to answer for.

  3. Scapegoat Salah

    Andreas winner loading!

  4. Sgt. Schultz
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford jeez man

  5. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Lets be honest it was always Trossard over Rashford regardless of the outcome he had better form

    1. Feanor
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Lucky me I have both

  6. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years

    Useless Rashford

    1. gooberman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Absolutely pointless transfer he has been. Crap.

    2. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yep, and obviously not pushing 100%.

  7. Royal5
    • 14 Years

    Martial and Rashford must be two of the worst attackers in the league.

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      And united fans somehow think it’s better ronaldo doesn’t play

      1. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        The 1 goal in 500 minutes Ronaldo?

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          He’s one of the best players in the world

          His experience and quality is clearly missing

          1. x.jim.x
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            He’s not even one of the best players at the club mate, have you even watched him recently?

          2. Zimo
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Correction. He was. He's a 37 year old liability now.

          3. Old Man
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            He WAS one of the best payers in the world.

          4. FantasyTony
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Lol are you Evra?

            • 14 Years

            Not sure how anyone who watches United could even claim that.

            He was one of the best players in the world. He's not even near that anymore.

      2. SkyByBo
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Ronaldo up there with Rashford and martial imo, has an incredible ability to make everyone else on the pitch worse as well.

      3. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        It's like you don't watch football. He's worse.

    2. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I told u he is such a big loser

  8. La Roja
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Loltial

    1. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      off is he

      1. La Roja
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yep

  9. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Now ETH goes for the win

  10. Arn De Gothia
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I wish this WC break would be over already

    1. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      waiting for at least a Rashford yellow.
      what a waste of FT

      1. Arn De Gothia
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Looks like all ManU players are a “no go” this season

  11. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    4 players today = 6 points

    1. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Daft to have 2 players from Brighton, United or Fulham though. Even dafter if you have 1 from Villa.

  12. The Senate
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Another refereeing error at Man Utd’s expense ffs

    1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It's like you have only just started watching football today

      1. The Senate
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I’m not even watching, just going off BBC text comm

  13. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Brought in Robbo this week and benched Shaw.

    Almost makes up for starting Guaita over Ward.

  14. La Roja
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno looks so bad. His drop in form since last year has been staggering

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He went down first, then Salah followed.

  15. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Time to create new ML that starts scoring after WC? With poor season so far, it would give a chance to "play for something"?

  16. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford + Martial on a combined 0bps today - terrible

  17. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Man Utd clearly missing England international Maguire’s leadership today….

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Lindelöf is better

      1. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Like picking your favourite haemorrhoid.

        1. Jafooli
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          😮 😆

    2. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I like your sense of humour ......

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        😉

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah right ...

  18. La Roja
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Palhinha should really be playing for a top side.

  19. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I don't think I'll get Rashford after world cup albeit MUN good 3 fixtures

    1. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He’ll be returning full of confidence having won the WC Golden boot….

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Wow never thought about that

        1. Jafooli
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          😛

    2. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Different player at home

  20. Steve McCroskey
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford is utter bobbins

  21. Bartowski
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Can we not still give Rashford directions to the wrong airport and take Toney instead?!

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You should 😉

    2. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Neither will play anyway

      1. Feanor
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        At least Toney would score a penalty if he came on with a minute left

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Imagine

  22. Sgt. Schultz
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford auditioning for a yellow

  23. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford nursing Pereira helped.

  24. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Jam Central…

  25. x.jim.x
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Garnachooooo

    1. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      should have started instead of Elanga

      1. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Don’t get it at all

    2. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Eriksen assist

  26. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    My God that burst of pace from Garnacho was unreal.

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Nearly as quick as James!

  27. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Garnachoooo!!!

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He's the only MUN hope! Well done son!

  28. It's Fergie Time
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    fergie time!

  29. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Fergie time back in play….golden age has truly returned….

  30. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Garnacho punt pays off!

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Great punt - well done at 4.3m not playing each week - deserve the PFL points
