Fulham manager Rene Meulensteen has admitted that he is surprised by Manchester United's form this season ahead of his return to Old Trafford on Sunday.
The 49-year-old, who left United in the summer after ending his spell as a coach at the club, believes that their disappointing season isn't down to a lack of quality players.
When asked if he was surprised at how United were performing under David Moyes, Meulensteen replied to reporters: "Yes because they have got good players.
"I know them inside out and I know the players, they have still got world-class players and that is what you're going to be up against.
"Let there be no mistake, they are still a fantastic club with a very, very good team. It is just the fact they aren't firing from all cylinders and they will, it is just a matter of time."
United are currently seventh in the Premier League, 15 points behind leaders Arsenal.
