Fulham are much better than their record as shown in the games against the scousers and rents recently. They arguably should’ve got 4 points from both those games and a draw here. This is a good result and could’ve been a more comfortable score line it Cavani finishes his chance.

It's a small thing about Pogba recently, but I've felt he was a bit of a 'looks good when the team is good' sort. Good when a Pirlo or a Zlatan or a Kante is around to keep him interested. Can't level that at him at the moment. He's been the one dragging others (Read: Knackered Bruno) through with him.
Maybe he always has been as wound up as we have been at how bang mediocre the team is when all he wants to be doing is challenging for things. Not the best mentality in and of itself but if him being good fuels us being good which fuels him being good again, I think I would take it.

It suddenly feels like he's got the right swagger, the right attitude. His workrate has gone up, he's leading on the pitch- basically, he's doing all the things we expected from him in the first place. He just wasn't able to create something from scratch like Bruno did when he joined us. Shaw is in a similar situation, where you just think why he would have struggled to hit top gear before, but with Telles coming in he's definitely stepped it up big time and been one of our best players the last few weeks. If Pogba carries on like this and helps us win #21, that will go a long way towards repairing the damage he has done to his reputation with United fans.

Bailly wasn’t awful tonight. He made a mistake, although not as bad as AWB’s imo. Bailly's off nights are Lindelof's new normal. Exactly.

He did anyway before kick off, didn't he? Martial has scored 2 and Cavani 4, so 3 before today. And they both started so had played 9 fewer before today as well.

That was a nervy win, but Fulham are a tough side. If it wasn't for the referee, they would have beat Liverpool so this is a good result. What a goal from Pogba. Hope he keeps this form up.

Nice win, made it harder than it should have been but still. I have no clue what to do about Martial. He showed last season that on form he's a very good forward, but his head just appears gone now, does dropping him help him or just fuck his confidence even further? I'd just have him out the team if I'm honest, he can be on the bench and get starts in the Europa. In the league, we need our strongest attacking line up, which is clearly Cavani as 9, Rashford 11, Bruno 10 and then A.N.Other as 7. Shaw has managed to make himself the best left back in the Premier League so fair play to him, really responded positively to Telles arrival, great to see. 40 points and safe! He has to drop Martial. Its unjust on other players if you keep picking him, only for him to keep performing so badly. There is no tactical reason for him playing either. I could say as much if not more about Maguire. Martial deserves to be dropped yes, but Maguire shouldn't be playing week in week out if game-by-game performances are a factor. Sadly though It's been confirmed that Ole doesn't have the balls to make THAT decision. Like someone else said a few weeks back it doesn't matter what ole Does or achieves this season he has to go.

That’s because top strikers not only finish chances they also make those chances by being in the right place at the right time. both martial and rashford consistently lack both(especially the latter)

I doubt we would’ve won this game last season.

This is transfer season Pogba. Make no mistake he is very capable of throwing his toys out the pram again when things don't go his way. So while it's great to see him score goals, we need to keep in mind we still don't know what his true intentions are with regards to this club.
