Good job that's only league clean sheets, eh?

I know.

Spurs just beat Everton 1-0, United-Fulham up next..

 

[Famine]

It's worth a note that, before the Fulham game starts, Manchester United are 1pt closer to the top of the table (16) than they are to the relegation zone (17)...

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Only one point though, but we can correct that with a win...

United old boy Tunnicliffe starts for Fulham with Larnell Cole on the bench, they also have 18 year old Tankovic up front..

United have Vidic back, Mata, Rooney and RVP all start with Januzaj on the bench...

 

[Akmuq]

Ugh I wish Sherwood would stop playing Bentaleb, I'm not doubting that he will be top-class, but he is not as good as Capoue in CDM.

I miss Sandro.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

you were so lucky in that one I thought, It was all Everton in the first half and then Adebayor scored with their first shot on target!

 

[Akmuq]

They've been outplayed most games recently, just Adebayor has been clinical in front of goal.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Shocking defending!

Way too easy for Sidwell and Fulham!

I've never seen such a one-sided first half, but we are still 0-1 down to a team that isn't set up to score!!

 

[Phoenix]

2-1 United!!!!!


RvP and Carrick with the goals!!! Keep 'em coming!!!!

 

[MUSC4EVER]

How many crosses have we put in?? Jesus Christ!!

 

[Kamuifanboy]

Would have been worse than Arsenal if Man U lost to the team on the bottom of the table.

 

[daan]

How many crosses have we put in?? Jesus Christ!!

I think good old JC was only put on one cross.

 

[Liquid]

I think good old JC was only put on one cross.

In fairness, it was one hell of a cross; set his team up for a good spell of dominance.

 

[Phoenix]

O... M....... G...............

Just typical United... Losing 2 points, again... On extra time...

 

[MUSC4EVER]

That's fourth place gone now, 9 points behind, cant see us catching Liverpool....

 

[sems4arsenal]

I can't stop laughing, that's Fulham, Fulham who lost 6-0 to Hull, who have Bent as their striker. Dear me Man United

expect United to have their game of the season at Arsenal.

 

[Brend]

Jesus.

 

[Vegard]

Jesus.

...wept.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

81 crosses, a record since OPTA began...and neither of the United goals came from a cross!

696 passes and 75% possession....all for a point..

 

[Brend]

If it makes you feel any better, Barcelona often have results like that.

 

[Liquid]

Wow, in the top half of the most valuable football division in the world.

Must be so hard to be a week in, week out United fan.

 

[Akmuq]

Must be so hard to be a week in, week out United fan.

Most United fans wouldn't know.

 

[Ross]

That was actually a good performance from United, I can't fault the players. It just seems that Fulham have been taking defending advice from Chelsea and actually doing it better than them. Their "park the bus" strategy was done better than Chelsea (apart from 2 minutes when we scored). That just looks like top 4 is out of reach now and maybe even Europa Cup as well.

 

[Alex.]

That's fourth place gone now, 9 points behind, cant see us catching Liverpool....

You actually thought you could before this game?

 

[sems4arsenal]

DO United fans think part of this is Fergie's fault?

 

[Kamuifanboy]

DO United fans think part of this is Fergie's fault?

For what? Personally selecting Moyes? No. People need to give Moyes time. He just needs to take charge of his players and build the team for his game plans. Fergie left at this time for a reason. He left because he knew the team was not going to be a championship winning team, and came up with a stupid excuse to need to retire. So, he is at fault for leaving the club with players that are getting slightly beyond their time.

 

[Pagey279]

That is true. Excluding RVP, Rooney, Mata and maybe Vidic I highly doubt any of the other players would even get a game at another top team. Say Man City, Chelsea, Bayern Munich etc.

How Sir Alex got nigh on a whole team of average players to perform like he did is beyond me.

Yep that's what I meant, he left the team in pretty bad shape.

We leaders! Thank you Hazard
