granted the defence was weak, but the midfield and attack are hardly reserves and rooney was playing and yet we offered nothing going forward.
But surely the midfield would have been affected by a shaky defence.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
But surely the midfield would have been affected by a shaky defence.
That's fair enough mate.
But I don't think it's fair to have a go at anyone. The so called "knee-jerking" only happens because ultimately, everyone on here cares.
3-0 to Fulham. No matter which way you spin it, it's pretty embarrassing. To be honest, over the past 2 matches we've been poor. Hopefully this is rock bottom. Get some defenders back and get some continuity back.
If we are to win the title this year, we're gonna have to beat all our rivals in the run in.
Who cares about mid table teams?
I wouldn't expect Carrick and Fletch to be giving the ball as cheaply as our midfield did today. I would also expect them to win possession more than Scholsey/Ando and Gibson. Fletch has probably been our best midfielder this season - to be missing him in midfield is a big loss.
yeh sorry they sound the same, there was an article of how he is taking a side just promted to third in the league, not bad and his side playes wonderful stuff, we look stale, were suffering from keanitis (players afraid to use their own initiative and try to keep passing to scholes or other experienced players sideways or backwards).
can't beleive scholes stayed on, he was not suited to a tough away match like fulham.
glad its over
if it was a one off, we could handle it, but same core players and same old shite, twice in a row is not acceptable, owen, scholes, and gibson should not have started, fabio was fit for rightback, our most direct player (orbertan) who also has a good link up with evra and rooney did not come off the bench 2 matches in a row
They've forgot to mention relegation.
when the defence is gone, the rest of the team cannot compensate.
If SAF brings anyone in Jan, it will be a couple of defenders.

The result is bad enough but the main issues irrespective of the injuries is the way we have played in the last 3 games.. Villa loss Wolves win and this loss have all been terrible performances..This is what worries me most
If Hargreaves comes back and is the player he was that will be a big plus..But we lack penetration and need a playmaker in midfield . The defence will sort itself out...
Had the right mind to tease the feckin' hell out of you here... but this loss has sucked all the smartass outta me.
The curse of Danny Murphy continues, whenever he scores we lose. When is that bald bastard going to retire.
We haven't lost twice in a row (we won midweek against Wolves), and Obertan hasn't sat on the bench 2 matches in a row (he played against Wolves midweek). I think some are forgetting about our midweek match. My dad said the same to me about losing 2 matches in a row.
and a United have the easiest holiday fixture list of all the clubs. For this reason I can see SAF justifying there being no need to buy through the Jan. window.
Hull
Wigan
Birmingham
Burnley
Hull again
United will not see any decent challengers until the very end of January.
Hoping the Glazers and Fergie do something because there are spotty appearances that lack any sign of life, whatsoever. I don't care which position... just someone of the Keano mold that brings a sense of urgency to a squad that looks like they'll take a nap on the pitch at any moment.

"Another loss when Solius makes the Matchday thread! GET IN!"
Stop creating matchday threads just so you can bump your happy hideaway thread, cock!
"Another loss when Solius makes the Matchday thread! GET IN!"
I miss this guy...
Note to Fergie: Get Rooney back on steroids. Maybe that will frighten the rest of the squad into the urgency needed.
I agree. Its like how Arshavin inspired Arsenal's 2nd half last season. Just injection of new blood.
