Manchester United vs Fulham - Page 2

Not being funny... but really ???

Game of the week - Manchester United Vs Fulham

Burnley v Wolverhampton - Relegation 6 pointer
Chelsea v West Ham - West London Derby, Top Vs (near) Bottom
Birmingham v Everton - Very Important game with potentially the last of the Europa League places at stakes.

I can't see anything than a high scoring United win. Going for 3-0 with a midfielder to score first. Possibly Valencia.

I would place the London derby ahead of this tbh.

Hoping that defeat to Juventus has tired out the Fulham defence and that Vidic and Ferdinand will snuff out Zamora completely. Duff playing on the left could be a bit of a bitch if he goes up against Rafael but on the right, I would trust Evra to snuff him out. Feeling quite positive about this game but Roy Hodgson's a great manager and Fulham can be a brick wall if they want to so I'm guessing 1-0, maybe 2.

Can Chris Smalling play in this game btw? I remember reading something about him being unable to play against United whilst still at Fulham?

Man United to win by a couple with Rooney getting one i reckon.

Hoping Fulham can do well in this game for 2 reasons, 1 being my bet I have on and number 2 being the fact if United lose and Arsenal win we could possibly go 2nd, or even top providing Chelsea lose or draw.

I think the main reasons this was chose is because Fulham are probably most likely to spring an upset more than West Ham are. It's on Sky therefore people will be watching and have some discussion on it and it's key to the title race.

Would Burnley vs Wolves or Birmingham vs Everton, both 3pm kick-offs on a Saturday with not exactly large fanbases on here, get much discussion whilst everything else is going off at the same time.

Don't worry, United won't be up here every week, there just wasn't a particularly vast range of choice this week.

No that's cool... like I say I wasn't being funny, I just thought I'd air my views on the other games.

He should be allowed to play tbh. It's not like United bought him and then loaned him back to them is it ? Or have I just got this all wrong and that's actually what happened

I thought they'd bought him for the 2010/11 season and that his transfer doesn't go through until July 1st. Hense meaning he's still officially a Fulham player ?

Does anyone actually rate him ? Not seen much of him tbh but for both Arsenal and United to have been interested in him, it says a lot. Didn't he come from Maidstone United or Wealdstone or somewhere like that ???

He's a good prospect but, we payed to much imo. I'm not sure if we've bought him and loaned him back, or just bought him for next season. to be honest, not sure he would play anyway I'd imagine Hodgson would go with Hangeland and Hughes in defence.

Slightly more attacking than I anticipated.

EDIT: Spot the interesting figure on the bench

Kuszczak, Park, Obertan, Scholes, Diouf, Fabio, Gill
