Marco Silva’s Fulham lost 1-0 to Man United in this season’s league openerCredit: PAUnited are yet to win in London this seasonCredit: PAThe match, like all TNT Sport televised fixtures, was meant to take place on Saturday lunchtime. However, due to United’s involvement in the Europa League just days before, the club rejected the initial slot to allow for more recovery time after their back-and-forth win against Rangers on Thursday night.

But scored a fantastic winner.Joshua Zirkzee – 4Ruben. He’s NOT a centre-forward.Whatever £36m bought, it wasn’t a natural striker and it’s unfair to be playing him up there on his own.Alejandro Garnacho – 8Busy and focused – didn’t look like any talk of being sold to Chelsea was bothering him.On this sparkling evidence United would be mad to let him go anywhere.SUBSMaguire (for De Ligt 46) 3 Totally asleep for Rangers’ equaliser.Malacia (for Yoro 56) 5 : Looking happier now injury worries overUgarte (for Collyer 73) 5 : Put in a solid short spell.Mainoo (Eriksen 73) 5 : Added strength and mobility.Hojlund (for Zirkzee 82) 5 : Ran about a bit – he’s good at that.United eventually broke the deadlock in the second half, with a little helping hand from Gers stopper Jack Butland.The former Red Devils stopper calamitously punched a Christian Eriksen corner into the back of the net in the 52nd minute.Cyriel Dessers thought he’d rescued a point for the Gers with an 88th-minute goal that stunned the Old Trafford faithful.But United skipper Bruno Fernandes struck in the 92nd minute to seal a last-gasp 2-1 victory and send the visitors back up the road with nothing to show for their efforts.
