Chelsea star Ruben Loftus-Cheek continues to enhance his reputation while on loan at Fulham.
The 24-year-old looked to be on his way to making it into the Chelsea first-team before injuries stopped him in his tracks. In fact, his current run at Craven Cottage is the longest since his return to action.
While he has continued to blow hot and cold, the level of performances are picking up.
The Englishman could not stop a United comeback after Fulham had taken an early lead. However, he impressed with some good movement and even tested David de Gea in the United goal. It is fair to say that he caused Fred much trouble in the middle of the park.
While it failed to garner a result, his performance on the night will also come as a welcome sign to Scott Parker. The former Blue, in charge of Fulham, has full faith that the midfielder will reach his potential.
Alongside Ross Barkley and Conor Gallagher, Loftus-Cheek is also beginning to reap the benefits of spending the season out on loan.
