David de Gea – Did not have a single save to make which emphasises just how dominant United were. 6/10
Antonio Valencia – Nice to see Valencia back following his suspension. Did very well to deal with the pace of Phillips. 6/10
Phil Jones – Forming an excellent partnership with Rojo and willing to protect him at all costs as shown with the Rondon incident. 7/10
Marcos Rojo – Didn’t give the WBA attack a sniff throughout, and his physicality and energy amongst that back line is brilliant. 7/10
Matteo Darmian – The Italian didn’t have an awful lot to do, but as the game wore on he found it tough to stop the West Brom attack. 5/10
Michael Carrick – In typical Carrick fashion, he just rolled through the game relatively easily and offered the back four that extra protection. 7/10
Ander Herrera – Lively, full of running and always the first to press. Played very well. 6/10
Paul Pogba – Drifted in and out of the match and tried to pull the strings. A real force in the midfield. 6/10
Wayne Rooney – That hunger is definitely back, and he was at the heart of everything good for United. A real driving force. 7/10
Jesse Lingard – Played brilliantly. His ball into Ibrahimovic for his opener was inch-perfect. He ran the channels throughout and did really well. 7/10
Zlatan Ibrahimovic – What an outstanding footballer. Held the ball up outstandingly and more than deserved two wonderful goals. 9/10 Man of the Match.
Subs:
Marcus Rashford – Looked lively and made some super runs.
Chris Smalling – Nice to see him back on the pitch after injury.
Marouane Fellaini – Came on and helped see the game out.
