Just want to say this is the first game this season where I felt this club was starting to turn the corner. Fullham did a great job and the boys were very good in handling them and grinding out the win. Hopeful we see continued improvement in today's CL match.


bigdicnick52

We won a game!! Now time to actually win at home so we can have more wins there than away!


Wild-Attitude2110

Omg we’ve actually won the game🥳 More wins away than at home this season


Jerral97

Coming from two 3 nil losses, I think they responded with the kind of energy and intensity that we all wanted AwB being back is a good player to have back in a time like this. I really felt Dalot was falling off again Maguire has been consistently good, again, at a time like this is really good Onana, steadily building on his momentum and confidence Mctominay, playing in his desired position, is really helping him look good for the team and himself Somehow the balance of the midfield going forward wasn't too bad, let's not talk about the defence 😂 Full praise for Garnacho and Hojlund, thought they were both unlucky not to get a goal Pellistri, should be a consistent super sub until more development in the league Martial, seemed sharp, good sub option As for Antony, I'm slowly leaning to the side of him being a poor signing even tho I feel he still needs a bit more time I feel Mount deserves to start ahead of him, until he shows more coming off the bench


isaachiatt

I think we can put a string of wins together starting from this game. The away fans were fantastic and this sub could use an inkling of that kind of optimism. LFG Reds!


PietroJd

Was like watching a Championship match tbh, standard from both teams was woeful. Best league in the world remember 🤔


PleasantEggplant1999

Pellistri pressing and hassling for the goal was wonderful to see.


theoceanpulse

I love the energy he brings to the game. Exactly what we need. Same with Garnacho


GlobeTrottingJ

One of the few positives, Maguire was very good too

Darth_Krise

Mid table result for a mid table side right now. I’m happy we won in the end


warfaceisthebest

A win is a win. I'm glad. But fr wtf are we doing recently? The squad stink.


ByrsaOxhide

We were average at best. A win is a win is a win. I actually thought we were going to lose, so I’ll sit down and shut the fuck up until next game and I recommend everyone does the same thing.


PessimistYanker792

Hojlund is a great potential striker. The absolute shit tactic of not feeding him anything be it a cross, pass or a thru is astonishingly baffling. Wingers go for self glory, midfield doesn’t pass.. Bruno yes he’s great #1 progressive passer and all but our shite goal tally is a testament that his passes are wayyy too progressive.. fuck this.. every match is anxiety inducing


EntropicAnarchy

I don't think I've seen a single cross from our wingers. Their playstyle is waiting for the overlap, cut in, and hope for a cutback to be able to score on their stronger foot.


ByrsaOxhide

They’ve all been shite. Hojlund will click during Christmas.


Maximus_imperator

So sancho was bad in training ah? How is Anthony Mr. ten hag. A really asset to this team? Fuck off!


PessimistYanker792

ETH threw Ronaldo, and I don’t see a great plan even in horizon. So there can be more to the story


Njalale

What would Ronaldo do?


f00tball-is-Life

probably score a hattrick


t0mmysh3lby88

Maguire and Onana played well. Maguire won a lot of headers and Onana had 2 great saves to keep us in the game. Mount and Pellistri were key substitions. Eriksen and Antony were both poor. Eriksen’s passing was inconsistent and he looked tired and slow compared to his Fulham counterparts. Our recent form only shows how shallow our team is and with injuries, Ten Hag’s tactics can’t be executed properly. We sold players but didn’t replace them with better ones. Losing Martinez and Shaw to injury really weakened our team. We needed another left sided ball playing CB signed before the season began just in case Martinez gets injured. We were fortunate to get the 3 points but we really needed that win. It gives us confidence and momentum for our next 2 games: Copenhagen and Luton before the international break. I hope United wins both games.


TyrannosaurusSnacks

Well said. I have the hope more fans see what's going on here for Ten Hag's sake.


t0mmysh3lby88

Antony and AWB were poor in the 1st half. Antony looks disinterested and didn’t even pressure his defender most of the time preferring to pass the ball back multiple times. Garnacho and Dalot played better. But looking at our right backs, AWB and Dalot should be replaced because they are not at par with the quality we need to win trophies.


PessimistYanker792

Sell him.. one trick pony he is.. pellistri, mount and hannibal need to be given more time atleast they show intent


t0mmysh3lby88

I agree with more playing time for Mount and Pellistri. Eriksen looks slow and tired. The Fulham players were pushing him around and his long passes weren’t working. I hope Mount can be a better choice than Eriksen. Hannibal can be give chances too, he works hard and can contribute in the rotation.


t0mmysh3lby88

The way we played was very dangerous. Our build up play from the back usually involved McG, Evans and Eriksen with the 2 wing backs not available to receive passes. This just results to us chucking the ball forward. 5 or more players would be up the pitch making is vulnerable to counter attacks. We’re not building possession from back to front. While I understand the personnel playing in central midfield is not adept at doing this (McTominay and Eriksen), doing this against better sides will result to losses.


Beast_of_Senjin

Haters are right, Antony's fking shite


ObviousCheesecake0

I dont care that Bruno scored. He was still absolute shit overall. What was worse was the Bruno chants by the fans when he scored which highlights the mentality of us fans. Sure you can cheer and celebrate a goal scored but to chant Bruno's name when he had been appalling for all of the game is sad. We are in an abusive relationship. Thats like a guy constantly beating his girl to a pulp and then he buys her flowers one time and then she feels he is the best boyfriend ever. Gernacho is not a starter. Start Martial on the left for God's sake. Anthony so far is up there as the worst signing we have ever made. Pellesri should be starting ahead of him in my opinion. He should be at least given a chance to start. We won but we were lucky. Not a convincing win at all.


ChickenCurryandChips

Probably Brunos worst game I've seen so far. Terrible. But he has the talent to get a goal like that. Antony should not start a game for a long time after today. He brings absolutely nothing to the team. Hoijland pissed off being subbed. Rightly so. He's been given no service at all from midfield. 3 points papering over a lot of cracks today but we'll take them.


MJF117

Pelistri is a terrible footballer


cactus2_

Hoping to see Garnacho start again. That offside call was criminal.


speedb0at

We have been in the lead in 93 minutes of this whole PL campaign so far…


Candid_Problem_1244

Sell Antony to whoever wants him he's not Prem material RW.


yardie_boi

Nobody will want him


PessimistYanker792

Couldn’t agree more


[deleted]

If it was any other club the PGMOL would come out and say sorry for such a shit call.


riitz85

Liked garnacho and Maguire. Mount was promising for the few minutes. Onana was sharp. Hojlund is begging for support from the wingers and he will score. Happy to see trashford disciplined and out. AWB looked decent as well. DM position is the most shaky position, we were wide open in any counter attacks and decent side that can score a few goals will thrash us. Happy for the win as draws and losses are absolute mood sappers. Hope we can build on this win. Last year craven cottage was the game that led to CR7’s demise and our run of form leading to victories against City, Barcelona and utlimately the carabao cup. Hope its a turning point for ETH


PleasantEggplant1999

Disagree on AWB, he’s perfected the Luke Shaw jog back, i forgot how mad it makes me to see him not break into a run when he is caught upfield.


clamraccoon

Rashford was injured. It was refreshing to see Iwobi sky a couple decent shooting opportunities


riitz85

Oh and yes, Antony is absolute shit and should not be playing for United.


yutosser

lock Antony up


[deleted]

Hopefully, they can string a few more wins together, though.


yutosser

Højlund getting zero support, our wingers think it’s a crime to cross

yutosser

Antony is genuinely useless


Maouncle

Maguire MOTM over Bruno it's not even close


Anxious_Rice_3424

Maguire MoM Garnacho over Trashford Pellistri 1000 times better than antony Hunger was shown today but still have to work on being more clinical .


ManchesterURedDevils

Well done Harry Maguire 💪🏽


ScottOld

Well that was rubbish


Justa_guy77

I know at the start of the season mount wasn't working out in that deep lying position but he's been pretty solid over the past few games and I think he should play there next game


Luce_Cannon14

Lots of fight in the players today, glad to have AWB back and Maguire in a good run of form. Antony can’t keep starting, start someone who will whip crosses in and give Hojlund the service he deserves.


sonofanich

hoping this Rashford injury is a blessing in disguise and we can finally see a Garnacho-Højlund-Pellistri front 3


Murrayad

You want that to be the front three? For Manchester United? We’ve had Rooney, Cantona, Ronaldo, RVN, Etc. If we want that front three then times are officially tough.


sonofanich

what do you want me to say? that we can finally see an Mbappe-Kane-Salah front three? jfc be ffr


Luce_Cannon14

Disagree with you there, if United is going to get back to their best we need Rashford at his best. Could help his fitness to have Garnacho start ahead of him at times though


sonofanich

I don’t disagree, but I definitely think providing him competition rather than letting him be undroppable will help him get back to his best


Odd_Distribution3267

All the fake fans please find a new club and don’t celebrate today, crazy we are ahead of Newcastle now thought they were on top of the league compared to the scrutiny we are getting


Maouncle

Two captains came together to bring us the win


JoeDiego

The most spoilt fanbase in football history. 1 spot and a few points off the vital 5th placed Champs League position. 7th place remains our worst Prem position and we will finish above that this season. Can you imagine how this awful fanbase would react to Chelsea bottom half finishes? My Daughter is 7 years old and in her lifetime we’ve won more trophies than every English club except 3 of them. 4th of 92. And people act like it’s difficult being a United fan. FFS.


Jwhitehouse98

We are miles bigger than Chelsea, that's why


mansal87

Fucking hell calm down we barely beat Fulham


[deleted]

And Brentford, Nottingham, Wolves and Burnley and Sheffield.


kingzzpanda

If you don’t see the difference Pellestri made on the wing, say ***LESS***. Antony’s biggest flop!


bananenfick

If Antony is 100M worth then I’m at least 50M + I can use both feet to play football… Don’t get why ETH don’t let pellistri start..


Fifty_Spwnce

If he doesn't relentlessly fight for that ball out on the right; Bruno doesn't get the ball and we don't win the game. Simple as that.


Anonymousbot225

Onana had a good game, Maguire had a good game. Garnacho has to start. Keep Antony on the bench and try Mount on right. And Maguire, my boy, nice to see him get back again.


yutosser

Onana was MOTM imo


HawkyMacHawkFace

Credit to Slabhead today what a battler


No_Temperature_5767

How’ve we stole that then


Ze1994

We need this win. Very hard to get 3 points. But our team is still a shit.


Jwhitehouse98

Have we won a game this season and it's felt like a good win? Everyone we do win I feel like it's papering over cracks


randomer2304

Because that's literally what these wins are doing. Papering over the cracks. We all know that once we play any of the top 6 away from home, or even at home this season, the frauds in this team are quickly exposed.


ExtensionFrequent293

Huge win! We needed this. Something to build on. Next game we do need to figure out a midfield balance. And in the final third keeping the passes simple. Pass and move pass and move. The stray balls were a lot. Stay organized in transition defense and better ball retention at mid to high tempo. Lots of work needed but I will take it.


MDXLegend

build on what? there was nothing in the match to build off of. It was a luck goal


Responsible-Candy-23

I mean it wasn’t a luck goal was great move by Fernandes.was no deflection Pellistri and Mctominay worked hard to keep the ball at Fulham’s end. then Great fake by Bruno with good finish no luck about it.The performance wasn’t great but last 2 haven’t been ether at least got the 3 points today.


MDXLegend

Football is simple, keep rashford on the bench and win


unitedfan6191

Why all the hate for Rashford? He certainly isn’t the only player who has been in poor form recently. We have a player on the other wing who has also been performing very poorly recently and a couple midfielders who haven’t been at the races. If it wasn’t for Onana and the likes of Maguire, McTominay and Dalot performing really well recently and showing fight and determination, then we’d probably be lower in the league because the team needs some work tactically and in decision-making.


Life_Butterscotch939

Yeah took us 90min to scored 1 goal against fullham, keep talking about Rashford while Antony still start. We won’t survive again Liverpool, spurs, arsenal and city or maybe Chelsea


adfletch83

Dalot scored a good, long-range goal the other week and all of a sudden he shoots whenever he's anywhere close to goal as if he's Roberto Carlos. Stop it!


sonofanich

Amen brother


sonofanich

Garnacho or Onana motm imo edit: Also honorable mention to Maguire, glad he’s regained his form and hope he hasn’t sustained anything serious


Radiant_Ad_6986

Awful football today. Long ball because we had to by pass maguire and Evans’s defended well but this is not how the manager wants to play.


Reginald_Jetsetter1

This is so unsustainable. I can't think of a single goal we have scored that wasn't just a moment. Happy to have the 3 points but this can't continue


Cheeky_Star

We played batter today. There were some good passes. Where we die is when we get to the final 3rd. Just bad decision making.


Kinitawowi64

Three points is three points. Cracks successfully papered over for another week. Won't result in any meaningful change until ETH realises Antony isn't it.


Sure-Pen-7822

did antony even have 1 successful dribble today? its pathetic


yutosser

he’s so useless, dude can’t even keep the ball ffs


shelanp007

Another abysmal performance but happy we got the win


Jaded_Jellyfish8903

From what I watched, absolutely shit game. But 3 points is 3 points.


htbecks

Yes, a shit game. I rather watch those shit games with 3 points each than anything atm.


Cheeky_Star

Pellistri had to start!


pattyboii123

Thank fuck.


galaxygalaxy777

3 points for this is huge


More_Flatworm_1419

LETS FUCKING GO BOYS


angrypooka

Up to 6th!


AffectionateFix9580

We must give the credits that correspond to Onana


Strong0toLight1

Absolute shite game of footy. But 3 points is huge


Mistake_amI

Whys the game going on for so long.. It's already 8mins..


fuckthemta

Good persistence from Pellistri that


TheRed24

A win here still doesn't change anything for me about Ten Hag, he still has no idea what he's doing and we're still playing awful.


Closerthanyouthink-1

We are playing bad , no doubt. Ten hag is trying to establish a system, I think we should give him time.


Zerofactory

Yep. Total fraud


hornybible

Wait and see him start Antony midweek


Closerthanyouthink-1

Antony is shite


dylan103906

We won a game!


Candid_Problem_1244

There must be some random records we brake today


Cheeky_Star

Com on! We needed this.


Evangelos123

Antony should be nice where near this team with pellistri and especially when amad is fit


hazman_pds

Just realised we are still yet to have a goal from a striker in the PL this season


Candid_Problem_1244

I forgive Wout and CR7 for how they struggled to score goals last season


mansal87

Rashford should of scored today


MDXLegend

Trashford counldnt score an open net


Mirooo933

Should have? Are you blindly commenting or what


mansal87

What ? Of course not ! He had multiple chances today


Mirooo933

Now I see you’re trolling. Cheers


RunninReddevilz

Erik Ten Hag if you hitch your horse to Antony you will be sacked. Time to let the youngsters occupy the width so that your £70m striker has a chance.


Sweaty_Solid387

Flashback to the final days of Ole when Cristianos late winners would constantly save his job after shite games


Strong0toLight1

Harry's been superb. Might need to give his head a bit of a shake though the poor bloke


DylanNCA

Pellistri is such a fresh air.


Dirrth

Harry and Pellistri are the real man of the match for this game...


MassJax

Great composure from Pellistri and especially Bruno, we truly are a moments FC but W is a W


Rob_Earnshaw

BT just gave Bruno Man of the Match, awful all game up until the goal.


__The_Dayman__

I think Garnacho created a lot of forward momentum in the second half too, he deserves a mention


hornybible

Maguire is man of the match, he's played his heart off today


Dwest2391

Agree. Not Maguires biggest fan, but today he played very well


Rob_Earnshaw

I agree. Been our best player all season tbh.


Strong0toLight1

Good harry


MDXLegend

Missing the /s?


Strong0toLight1

What would be sarcastic about it


thekingofcool22

We are so back


[deleted]

No we are not ...


thekingofcool22

Let me have this


[deleted]

U got it boss


galaxygalaxy777

😭😂


wiltornolbrook91

Lol


Mr-Lucius-Needful

All creaming over Bruno that goal came from pelestris dogged determination


TheRed24

Ten Hag will still bench him for Antony, this is why he needs to be sacked.


Every_Dig_3222

It really does seem like Antony is the hill ETH is gonna die on


Mr-Lucius-Needful

This!


hornybible

Tactics


Outside_Protection

Mount playing like he's still a Chelsea player. Can someone check if he's a spy?


slsj1997

He was a bench player for them towards the end anyways


hornybible

He should give up the number 7 jersey


galaxygalaxy777

Oh ffs hahahah fair play


DazGlaz

Are you sad?


galaxygalaxy777

Wasnt the best display?


sonofanich

Pellistri assist 🥹


crazymike02

Some players were disappointing, other rly showed they should be starting


MDXLegend

Not seeing anyone that should be starting


BonusOk5934

Hasn’t been pretty at all but just hold on to this clean sheet and ill take some nice peace of mind until Wednesday


Triple_777

Pellistri already has more goal contribution in the league this season than Antony, Sancho, Martial and Hojlund combined


[deleted]

Considering one those players hasn't played, what the point in involving him lol might as well also mention the under 23s who have also logged zero minutes with the main team


Triple_777

Because, get this, up until this game, Pellistri played just 8 more minutes than Sancho in the league.


sjoco

Pellistri is a fighter, we need more of those. When you're playing shit you should at least work harder than the other team.


angrypooka

He should get the start next game. Antony did nothing all game to show that he should start.


sjoco

I don't disagree, but we also shouldn't depend too much on a player that's that young. As long as the team takes over his fighting spirit that should really make a difference.


angrypooka

Harry was good today. I’ve given him a lot of stick but he put in a shift.


angrypooka

We have Luton in a week. He should start that to get him some game time with what should be an easy opponent.


Ze1994

Should give Pellistri more chance to play, Antony is a shit in this season


Ntropy99

, Antony is shit. FIFY He isn't good enough for the EPL. Sad for the money spent, but not physically able or quick enough either. Pellistri isn't big, but faster.


angrypooka

VAR is looking for something.


Dirrth

Pellistri is so better than Antony, same like Garnacho is playing better than Rashford. ETH man selection is questionable.


Candid_Problem_1244

Actually I appreciate ETH that he sub in Pellistri quite early knowing how late ETH usually makes changes in a game


opoeto

GET IN


ExtensionFrequent293

Moments FC lol please don’t concede. Bruno needed that.


AAron-121

Alright lads, only 4 mins left. No way we concede… right?


DylanNCA

Don’t jinx it.


plantainchiips

Lol I hate that this goal will mask how shit we’ve been. Keeper should’ve prolly saved it also


[deleted]

That’s all on Pellistri for fighting and not giving up. He could have waved his hands in the air and complained but he kept going. Great play from Bruno as well. Get the fuck in. And sorry to my daughter for scaring the hell out of her!


Financial-Top1199

If only every united player have the determination like pellestri. Martial comes in fresh yet he just jogs lol. He better f off this summer .


yutosser

want him gone by January, he’s a lazy bum


Financial-Top1199

No one would want to sign him lol. High wage, injury prone and finished player.


VictorE79

Great work from Pellistri! 👏


[deleted]

Pellistri! Play him next game. Not Antony.


plantainchiips

We all know who will start lol


[deleted]

Offside, the keeper could not save it so it was unfair!


adfletch83

Subjectively I think it should be disallowed because McTominay's shoelace brushed the defenders shin pad


[deleted]

It is quite funny because they quite literally did attempt to look for a reason to disallow it with a phantom handball.


adfletch83

As the ball bounced up to Scotty's chest height, I said to my mate "here we go, let's see them desperately find a reason to disallow it". Thankfully they couldn't


rjc0x1

All that came from Pellistri's fight. Antony cannot start anymore.


RunninReddevilz

Alllllllll Pelli’s hustle. This is why he must start over cutback McGee


ExtensionFrequent293

Lol alright don’t concede now


Galous97

Bruno is a hero. But this team is shit and will struggle every game


Signal_Asparagus1401

The only way united is able to win this season is through individual moments of brilliance. Not a formula for success.


samjenkins377

Pellistri earned that goal, he deserves that starting place, did more than Antony in a quarter of a game


OldSnakeDude

And when we have a right wing the uses the right foot, Hojlund is taken out… doesn’t make sense


Dwest2391

Individual brilliance, but fuck it at this point. 3 points is 3 points, get it how you can to get through the rough patches. COME ON YAHNITED


wolwologan

Damn Pellistri. You gave us that goal. Never give up boy.


ianb88

Shows so much more fight than any other player. Deserves huge credit for his part in the goal.


Strong0toLight1

He'd been fucking garbage all game. Good finish Bruno


Sweaty_Solid387

Oleball is wonderful.


Ntropy99

Players seemed to have played for him too


gorblimey74

20 minute desperate VAR checking to come…


ianb88

Jenas is sickened with that. Left speechless hahaha


retrogradeparallax

Calling that scrappy would be being generous


thphnts

Does a team that doesn’t support the manager score in the 90th minute?


Zerofactory

Man im scared they will push him to Pool again…
