FANS think Harry Maguire was lucky to not be sent packing for a reckless challenge against Fulham.
The England International was shown a yellow card after he collided with Sasa Lukic in the 36th minute of the clash.

Maguire appeared to go straight through the side of the Serbian midfielder with his studs raised.
And as the 30-year-old planted his right foot he slammed it down right on top of Lukic’s ankle.
The Fulham man was left writhing in pain on the floor after the collision saw his ankle buckle underneath Maguire’s foot.
Fans were left bemused as to why referee Michael Oliver only dished the Man Utd man a yellow card and not a red.
One took to social media to write: “How on earth has VAR not sent Harry Maguire off here? Grim.”
And a second added: “That’s a bad one. VAR doing Man Utd a favour.”
A third fan chimed in writing: “Should have been straight red!”
And a fourth joked: “How is Maguire not getting sent off for that? Absolutely awful challenge!”
It was a feisty game all over the pitch with Casemiro forced off after a head-on-head collision with Harrison Reed.
And ultimately it was a game that saw the Red Devils wave goodbye to their unbeaten start to 2024 in a 2-1 loss to the Cottagers.
Calvin Bassey of Fulham opened the scoring in the 65th minute by smashing home his chance to give his team the lead.
Staying on the field, Maguire was later able to slot the ball past Bernd Leno at the far post after the goalkeeper had parried a cross from Bruno Fernandes in the 89th minute.
But after Michael Oliver and his refereeing crew added nine minutes, Alex Iwobi managed to grab all three points to bring back to London.
The former Arsenal player stunned Manchester United in the 97th minute with a goal.
