David Moyes admitted Manchester United's 2-2 draw with Fulham on Sunday marked a new low for his first season in charge.
Jamie Carragher says that the amazing stats from the game only tell half the story. "I don't think you can look at those stats and say how well Manchester United played," explained Carragher on Sky Sports. "I think the way Fulham played, you were always going to batter them on the stats. Fulham looked more comfortable out of possession. When they had the ball, they did not really know what they wanted to do - I have never see a team defend so deep in my life. "United may have had more crosses than we have ever had - but it was not the quality of crosses you would expect from Manchester United." Former assistant manager Mike Phelan agrees and says that the quality from United just was not there. "To say that was disappointing would be an understatement, it is more devastating than anything else," added Phelan. "We saw what Fulham did to Manchester United is what Manchester United usually do to other teams - they win the game when they have to. "It was an unbelievable game from a tactic point of view. You see Fulham defending, defending and defending - their game plan was really working. And then it wasn't working and then it was back on track again. "All credit to Fulham, whose game plan came through in the end, but massive disappointment for Manchester United who really should be winning football matches with all those attempts on goal. The quality was just not there. "Stats can give you a false impression and can hurt United more, they dominated in possession but did not win the game. You can harp on and harp on about possession but in reality that is not always what the game is about; it's about winning the game and creating chances to score goals."
