Fulham vs. Manchester United

A draw was a fair result today in an entertaining game.

Wtf is going on with some of the over-reactions though?

It's only two fúcking games in people - two fúcking games !!

I've said it before and I'll say it again, posters should be required to have an IQ test before being allowed entry to the soccer forum !!!

They at times outsmarted and outclassed one of the 'elite' teams, while Blackpool, West Brom, Wigan meekly surrendered against others early - that isn't a good gauge for the rest of season?

You don't have to be a particularly gifted team to stay up in recent seasons. Just need a bit of team spirit and team organisation - which on today's evidence - they have!

Much akin to Sky Sports endless battering that Paul Scholes is the PFA player of the Year favorite for this year

Balls. Balls, balls, balls and more balls. I feel better now.

On Nani, I don't mind if a penalty wasn't scored because of a good save. But the lack of conviction in his run up is what pisses me off. You just knew it wasn't going to be good. He should have been making sure that he was at least going to make it a job and a half for the keeper.

We looked off the pace all around the park. It just wasn't that enjoyable, well at least it wasn't for me. Except for Scholes's goal. What a beautiful goal! The guy just keeps giving!

Anyway, 36 games to go yet!

People forget Fulham were last seasons Europa League finalists, it was never going to be an easy game

Great game. Fair result. On second looking it wasn't a penalty.

No complaints. Need to be more sturdy and cautious in midfield vs West Ham and Everton especially

TheTosh

Fulham had 16 shots, 8 on target, United had 15 with 7 on target

I thought it was an entertaining game. The result was disappointing but fair overall. Duff didn't really get a lot of credit for his part in Fulham's goals, including the second one.

I'm a bit concerned about Evans at the back. I want him to do well but I'm still not convinced by him. I hope he can have a good season. I wasn't impressed by Hernandez and Berbatov either. Fulham did well against the pair of them. Still seems like we are very reliant on Rooney playing and I thought he was missed today.

Battling display by Walton on his Man U debut, almost salvaged three points for his new club today. Well played ref.

Lighten up for goodness sake. Just a bit of banter.

But for those complaining about why Giggs/Scholes/Owen/Berb didn't take it, Nani obviously is the designated peno taker.

Not sure after this interview by Fergie.

"I thought Ryan should have taken it. In the last game we played against Tottenham at home Ryan scored two penalty kicks and Nani was on the pitch the same day. Maybe Ryan should have taken it.

Well it was an improvement on our last 2 visits to Craven Cottage.
