Very nervy towards the end. We were pretty poor, lack of clear cut chances created tells you a lot.

We started off well.
Sidwell put in a bad tackle and saw
We were shít thereafter. Very vunerable on the break.
We scored just before halftime.
Second half was poor.
Giroud got late on.


Koscielny and Mertesacker were the stand-outs, every one else were a bit sub-par.

we have Per and Kos to thank for the win. We were toothless going forward.

Worst we have played since our loss against spurs, fulham countered very well should have got atleast a draw. We created probably 1 chance in open play, very poor display.

Best players were szcz, mertesacker and koscielny

We have to improve in the summer. Would anyone want Eriksen in the summer?

Szez was not part of the best team.

Very poor match to watch after Sidwell sending off. Mertesacker was the poacher in attack with a good goal. I think the main problem was that we were too complacent and Fulham performance deserved something out of the game with few good chances they created.

We were ManUtd for a day.

Szczesney was world class. Simply outstanding. He should start all our remaining games.

szczesny had a good game, looked solid and reassured, saved berbatov's chance when he was one vs one

Fulham didn't cause us too much trouble until the end, the problem was that we couldn't get the 2nd goal to put the game to bed. We had nearly all the ball as they were down to 10 men early on (Sidwell ) but Giroud (who also got a at the end) and Walcott are not up to it. A jaded performance and a nervy one at the end - but a MASSIVE 3 points

Saying that our CB were our best players against 10 men Fulham should tell you a lot Dubbed.

We created shiiiit nothing going forward. Our wing play non existent. We didnt even had chances that we could have missed. Giroud hit the post in the first half. His red card was a joke but think the ref wanted to level something up. Thankfully it was in the last minutes of the game.

This game was pathetic from us. Very weak team performance but we got the three points and not fecked it up like we did last season at Fulham.

They had the best opportunities between the red and the goal. Caused us loads of problems on the break. Arteta and Ramsey were shocking, tbh.

Nobody stood out. Bar Merte and Kos. Very poor performance, where Fulham created the better chances, even with ten men. But we won.

Yeah fulham were the better team over 90 mins, we dominated possession but did nothing productive with the ball

Ramsey especially. Very very bad performance.

Szez would have stone on this board if that offside goal from Fulham would have count. Pathetic stopp here.

We were ManUtd for a day.

We were pathetic. Worst we've played all season probably.

That said though, I'm delighted with the 3 points and that's all that matters really. But against 10 men, we really should've had a field day.

Yeap, 3 points closer to our target.

Think 7 more will be enough for 4th, may even get away with 6.

Really DJ?

I think 9 minimum is needed

7 more means Spurs have to get 13. 4 wins and a draw against either Chelsea or Man City.
Think they will get 9 or 10.

I think playing 10 men was more a detriment to us and a benefit to Fulham. That allowed them to park the bus and play on the counter, at times looked dangerous. Arsenal had most of the possession, but looked rubbish as soon as they got to the box. Where have we heard that before?

The performance was woeful, but we're at a stage in the season where the results now matter more

Yep 7 points for me, too. Draw vs United, wins vs QPR and Wigan meaning we can go to Newcastle with our feet up (or maybe competing with Chelsea for 3rd spot).

I think if United beat us we will need to get something from Newcastle though.
