Here is how some of United’s stars performed for their sides.

The 19-year-old registered 33 touches of the ball and won an immense 4/5 of the ground duels he attempted against Stoke.

Amad Diallo
Diallo has had a kind of resurgence after a slow start to life with the Black Cats. This has been evidenced by the amount of fan adoration and affection the player has been receiving from Sunderland fans.
The 20-year-old played a part as Sunderland fell to a 1-0 defeat vs Cardiff City.
Diallo had 71 touches of the ball and mustered an admirable 86.5% accuracy. Out of his passes, there was one key pass.
The Ivorian completed 100% of his long balls and had just one shot on target.
The youngster completed a paltry two of the seven dribbles he attempted. He also lost six out of his ten ground duels and lost possession fifteen times.

Ethan Laird
Laird played 89 minutes in QPR’s 1-0 defeat at the hands of West Brom.
The right-back made one clearance and as many interceptions.
Laird, in a supreme show of his defensive prowess, made three tackles and made sure he was not dribbled past even once by West Brom’s players.
The 21-year-old had for 78 touches of the ball and a 70.8% pass accuracy for Micheal Beale’s side.
Laird also won 7/11 ground duels.
Something that the player will look to improve on is his dribbling and crossing. He failed to register anything successfully under these metrics.

It will be interesting to see whether Henderson’s performances for Forest guarantee him a spot on Gareth Southate’s squad ahead of the Qatar World Cup.
