Arsenal title winner Paul Merson has slammed Manchester United after their home defeat to Fulham.

United were flat for the 2-1 loss.

Merson said on Sky Sports: "Man United were shocking, I'm not exaggerating. Absolutely shocking.

"You know, how they can think they can get in the top four. And what's the point of getting the top four anyway?

"Just to get into the Champions League. They're not going to win it. So what's the point in being in it?"

He continued: "They're a gillion quid away.

"Honestly, I don't know where they're gonna catch up. Where he went, I want to take over Man City, whoa, pull it in to try and take over a couple of the others first.

"Do you know what I mean? You go in like, 'I'm gonna take Man City over'. Just go right bang, wait there a minute, you know, over the next couple of years, we've got to try and catch them and then we'll catch them. I mean, no chance.

"This is going to be very slow. This ain't gonna be overnight. This is going to be very very slow. If Man United went and won the league in the next five years whoever's the manager should get knighted."
