McTominay Urges Man Utd Players to Rise Against Fulham
Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay has emphasized the importance of his teammates giving their all in order to secure victory against Fulham. McTominay’s comments come as United face an early kick-off in the Premier League on Saturday, following two consecutive 3-0 defeats. The first loss came in the Manchester derby, followed by a defeat against Newcastle United in the League Cup. Despite these setbacks, McTominay has been a standout performer for United this season, notably helping the club secure a comeback win over Brentford with two late goals. However, other players have failed to match his contributions. United currently sit eighth in the league, eight points off the top four, and are unlikely to challenge for the title despite significant transfer activity in the summer. Additionally, there is controversy surrounding Erik ten Hag’s decision to reprimand Marcus Rashford for partying after the derby defeat. Speaking ahead of the Fulham match, McTominay acknowledged the need for the team to fight relentlessly, highlighting that the manager can only do so much. He emphasized that it is ultimately the players on the pitch who determine the outcome of matches. McTominay urged his teammates to focus on the upcoming game and not dwell on past results. He stressed the importance of giving their all and leaving everything on the pitch to secure victory. The match between Fulham and Manchester United will be broadcast live on TNT Sports, with coverage starting at 11:00 UK time on Saturday, November 4. Viewers can access TNT Sports through various TV platforms, including discovery+, BT, EE, Sky, and Virgin Media.
