Nothing really to be said. Expected decent win. Should have scored more.

Dalot looks a pretty good prospect.

Good performance. Fulham were absolutely abysmal but at least we capitalized on it.

Great performance against a poor Fulham side. Rashford was dynamite, Mata and Dalot were excellent too.

I'm sure we will if our opponents happen to be Fulham every week.

Liverpool will present an entirely different challenge to that which we faced this afternoon.

Happy with that.

Ander, Marcus, Diogo all had a great game. Matic and Young very good too. Like the quick passing (which was mainly in the first half).

If Pogba doesn't do well against Valencia there is no way he'll play against the scouse.

Dalot is the man.

Second half was normal service resumed, after a rare lively first half.

Good first half

No idea why we dont rotate the likes of matic when we are 3 goals up against the worst side in the league....he surely needs to be rester

Good game, enjoyed it and pleased witg the victory. Can't remember when we scored 4. :)
Dalot MOTM, he's the future. :) had a great game, really put a shift in. Like he's a veteran.

Heavy lifting was done in the first half, which was impressive. Second half was abject. You can see what we were trying to do but our players seemed to interpret 'play on the counter' as go direct. We stopped playing football and kept hoping we'd get lucky over the top. It just led to us giving Fulham the ball loads. Feels a lot like some of the' 4-0 FC' performances of last season. The scoreline looks great but the performance left plenty to feel uncomfortable about.

PS) Never a penalty. Should've been a clean sheet.
PPS) Rashford was a gem today.

Easy win. Not sure how much we can take out of it given how rare actually decent attacking performances are, but have to enjoy it! Rashford was class, Lukaku frustrating still but not awful at least. Mata and dalot very good as well.

Well done to the lads and manager. This is what we expect and hope when we face relegation fodder. Not struggling to get a draw.

First good performance in a while. Fulham were atrocious but you can only beat what's in front of you. Doubt this will result in any sort of a positive run, which we desperately need, but that's just how it is.

Very decent.

Matic, Herrera, Dalot, Mata, and Rashford all had very positive games. Jones was very good until Smalling went off and then it all started to get a bit weird. Bring on the scousers.

First half was a breath of fresh air, there was an understandable drop in the second but I was a bit disappointed we didn't respond to Fulham's attacking intent better and instead allowed their momentum to build, thankfully the sending off killed the game for them.

Very good performance in the first half. Didn't need to get out of second gear in the second.

We need to keep the consistency of playing Herrera, Lingard & Rashford; who're the core of the pressing game that has shown a marked improvement.

Likewise we need to keep Pogba on the bench. Matic has looked twice the player having a midfield partner who actually does the job of a midfielder.

Good win all in all. Fulham are pretty crap and were so in the first half particularly but we did what we needed to do.

Mata and Dalot best two players on the pitch for me. Nice goal from Young to start it off.

Lukaku is fecking dreadful right now and his poor form (in terms of his all-round play) seems like it's never going to end but he got a goal at least. Jones looked pretty crap in defence as usual despite Fulham failing to really test us.

Rashford with a much needed goal despite the goalkeeper blunder.

Low quality all round but a good score line for the confidence levels, Lukaku somehow still looked terrible despite scoring
Harsh to say we were low quality. We played some decent football and never looked in trouble. Not that it was difficult, but some of our play was good and we were enjoyable to watch

Finally. Not an incredible performance and the opposition was poor but we put them to the sword effectively and it was over by half time, so job done. Second half a bit dull by comparison but the game was won, so that was probably the reason why. A few good performances in there, some good goals, so lots of positives on the day. Still, will need to be much better by next weekend to take anything from a Liverpool team that will be looking forward to us coming.

Good game, great result. Second half could have been better, and as loathed as I am to say it, we need someone better than lukaku as our main striker. Dalot was bossing that right wing showing that he should be first choice right back, and with a better striker waiting in the middle we could have been in double figures.

Liverpool next, and we need this kind of performance to kick their arses.
