← Manchester United vs Fulham: Reaction to 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage

Man Utd have drawn at Fulham - Give us your INSTANT REACTION

Does Matheus Cunha's goal save Michael Carrick's job over the international break?

p_rayner1w ago

Desperately need a proper experienced striker eg Welbeck or Toney. After we didn't go for Kane, we needed someone to help Hojlund and let him grow and learn. I have hope for Sesko but he needs a senior striker to learn from as he is not nearly physical enough and doesn't give defenders a hard time. Our attack is toothless and not frightening at all.

dancoombs1w ago

Welbeck was the easiest slam dunk of a deal to do and we didn’t. I don’t get that one. I agree an experienced striker needed but doubt we go for Toney

epi2media1w ago

At this rate I can't see MC surviving...His luv for Rashford is his downfall. Every team in EPL can easily outplay MU. Am sure even sorry Tottin'ham will pick their first win against MU...Sad...Really sad🙂‍↕️

All these players WILL play Brilliant for their Respective Countries. And for Very LITTLE Money.. So. The problem is at UNITED. The GLAZERS Should be Ashamed. They've Run our "GREAT" Club into the Ground. DISGRACEFUL SCUMBAGS..

gdollop2w ago

Utd were awful. The manager has to take responsibility. We can all see that Mbuemo should be down the middle, Cunha on the left and Lacy on the right and Kobie needs either Santos or Baleba as a partner. Possibly also swapping Dalot and Shaw for Yoro and Amass as well. At the moment we don't have enough pace or bite or fight about us.

maximomwango922w ago

I wonder why he keeps on using the same players even if they're not performing and leaving Young players on the bench. Busy playing the slow guy shaw leaving Lacey who does that Carrick should take his job serious

dancoombs2w ago

We said this before the game, it’s the same old line-up. No new ideas

bs5415832w ago

The players need to do more. Cuhna up front isn't working, Mbeumo doesn't do enough defensively, Tielemans has regressed, and the defence is a shambles. United needed a LB as priority, and instead bought three midfielders. Santos has hardly played, and Baleba not at all. What was the point of taking our best player Mainoo off, and bringing Mount on ?

davenport8692w ago

If Carrick's given the right tools he'll do a good job. Are squads a mess. It makes me sad to see the team I've loved all my life being f**ked up from the top down. Players who would be out the door by fergie for there lack of effort get game after game

dancoombs2w ago

Zirkzee was our first option off the bench, that in itself is worrying

thetruthpersonified2w ago

Agree re player. No evidence to suggest MC will do a good job. Yes he did a decent job last season, manager bounce etc. Has more tools now than last season, and making a right mess.

geldroper2w ago

So then why is Lacey not playingor is MC trying to get rid of him too

jonathan.gorrie2w ago

No one tempted by Eddie Howe?

theworm2w ago

I was

dancoombs2w ago

Howe is a credible option but as @jonny points out above - I think a director of football change would have more impact long-term. Otherwise we will end up with the same issues

jonny2w ago

Carrick and Wilcox should go. Writing is on the wall and if a deflected goal has kept him in the job then we are in big trouble. Delighted I don’t have to watch them for 3 weeks.

theworm2w ago

Are you a fan ????,,,,.I guess not

theworm2w ago

The draw hasn't saved him yet International break gives them enough time to decide on his future so he's not entirely saved

dancoombs2w ago

While I don’t think they will make a change, certainly they will use the break to assess their options

theworm2w ago

They're dysfunctional and also Carrick needs to more intense in the background reminding how important is every match

stephenjholmes12w ago

The importance of every game as a United player shouldn't need for the players to be reminded of. The issue is clearly happening on the training ground.

stephenjholmes12w ago

Absolute disgrace. MC is writing his own obituary. Playing the same team that hasn't performed. No guts, from him or the team. Then he brings on Zebedee. Should of left him on the magic roundabout. Useless. Takes a deflection for us to score. Lacey didn't even get a cameo, when he is the only shining light.

geldroper2w ago

Why put one of your best plyers out from last game. He would be the only one with ant passion. the rest is already on vacation. And keep calling Martinez a fantastic player. Maybe he should learn where the opposit goal is because he did the same thing last season a couple of times. No wonder nobody wants him

dancoombs2w ago

Yep I’m confused but not totally surprised no minutes for Lacey. Disappointing

chad570422w ago

We so need this international break if anything just to see what we're doing wrong and what needs to be corrected.

dancoombs2w ago

Yes I think the break probably does come at a good time, I’d just rather we went into it with a win. Just not good enough

dancoombs2w ago

A draw is as good as a defeat. 5 points to start the season is utterly useless

seanfisher2w ago

So so dysfunctional. Reactive and uninspiring. A broken system, and so naturally attention will turn to Carrick

jonny2w ago

For me, no Lacey yet persisting with Zirkzee is reason alone to change. He talked the talk in the summer but he isn’t a United manager

thetruthpersonified2w ago

An absolute disgrace! Where to begin. We were lucky to draw and deserving of a defeat. These players clearly do not listen to MC. They were half asleep after his HT talk! MC subs are too passive and late. How did Tielemans remain on the pitch! Oh my word. If MC remains in post, it is the club going with hope over belief!

dancoombs2w ago

Definite alarm bells when the players come out of HT with that reaction. Very depressing to watch

markmarston2w ago

Just not working is it… feel for Carrick but you just get the sense he’s out of his depth. Not saying last season was a fluke, but it was a great deal of momentum benefited by one game a week. Not sure where United go from this

seanfisher2w ago

I hate to say it but he comes across as uninspiring at times like this… worryingly passive
