Paul Merson SLAMS Man United and insists Erik ten Hag's side were 'absolutely shocking' in defeat against Fulham... as he insists the club have 'NO CHANCE' of catching rivals Man City in the near future

Paul Merson savagely criticised Manchester United following the club's defeat to Fulham.

After a faltering start to Erik ten Hag's sophomore campaign at the club United appeared to have finally found their form with an unbeaten start to 2024 with four wins on the bounce.

However, at Old Trafford the hosts would find themselves forced onto the back foot for large stretches, with Calvin Bassey giving Fulham the lead on 65 minutes.

Harry Maguire's goal on the brink of stoppage time looked to have rescued a point for United, but Alex Iwobi would restore the visitors' lead at the death and condemn United to defeat.
