David de Gea – A relatively quiet afternoon for the Spaniard, although his distribution let him down at times. 5/10
Ashley Young – Scored the third goal to kill the game which made up for his error that let Palace score. A decent outing. 5/10
Chris Smalling – Solid. He’s beginning to form quite the partnership alongside Victor Lindelof. 6/10
Victor Lindelof – Brilliant once again. His willingness to play out from the back is becoming a real asset. 7/10
Luke Shaw – Another super outing. He made the first goal with his willingness to run, while also remaining defensively solid throughout. 7/10
Scott McTominay – Very good. Protected the back four and showed a desire to move the team back in the right direction. 6/10
Paul Pogba – Not his usual, flashy, brilliant self, but instead he was calm composed and showed a real leadership. Did pick up an assist too. 6/10
Fred – Grew into it after a slow start, but I’m still not sure exactly what he does well… 5/10
Diogo Dalot – Out of position on the right-wing. He did alright, but you’re not expecting fireworks from him. 5/10
Alexis Sanchez – Worked hard but the final ball, pass or shot was lacking. 5/10
Romelu Lukaku – Brilliant. Scored two very different goals and on another day could have had a hat-trick. Great to see him back in the goals. 8/10
Subs:
Eric Bailly – Came on to secure the result.
Marcus Rashford – Nice to learn that he’s not struggling with injury. Looked bright.
James Garner – Congratulations to him on his debut!
