Fulham's reserve left back is rubbish, on a yellow and Dan James is still on the bench. The lad has no future at Old Trafford.

We definitely need Ben Whites pace and athleticism in midfield against Fulham. They break with real pace.

I agree. Fulham have had a lot of good shooting opportunities, but other than Lookman they have been wasteful. Keep him quiet, attack Joe Bryan with Tau and - hopefully - Lallana, and we should do well.

Also nice to see Areola make a big mistake to let Utd back in.

So for all the plaudits Fulham get they have just lost two homes games in a few days. I know we can’t get ahead of ourselves but I do think some of the pundits are getting a bit carried away with them.

Lampard didn’t over achieve at Derby.

They were in the midst of a crazy player buying and borrowing spree.

On club income of just £29m, their annual payroll costs were £47m and growing, a squad that cost £51m and growing. Lampard called in favours to get PL players in on loan - Mount, Wilson and Tomori.

FFP cheat Mel Morris and Lampard tried to blitz their way to promotion, holding significant squad advantages over almost every other club, and they still failed.

We'lll agree to differ. Derby didn't have a season like that for a decade and probably won't for at least another.

Good news that Fulham have lost. Hopefully Burnley with lose tomorrow.

Tau against Bryan is a good shout. He is a championship left back.

Fulham looked a threat at times and gave it their all but were shot by the end. Confident GP will have a plan.

Fulham I thought were a bit unlucky not to get a point - thankfully they didn’t .

They break quickly and play a lot of balls over the top . Need to double up on lookman , he is their danger man , quick , strong and decent shot on him .

We will need to play well .

Totally agree Fulham are a worry how well they play. Imagine if we had Biss and loftus cheek in midfield. He’s way too good for a bottom 6 team

Loftus-cheek was excellent when running with the ball today. So quick and strong. Feels nailed on he gets the finish vs us!
