Manchester United beat Aston Villa 4-2 at Old Trafford this evening in the Carabao Cup. Here are our player ratings for the game:
(A score of 6 is around average.)
Martin Dubravka 6 – Couldn’t do much about either goal.
Diogo Dalot 5 – Horrible own goal and made a couple of other errors but what a pass to Bruno in the lead up to the first goal.
Harry Maguire 3 – He’s not getting any better, let’s face it. Just bad.
Victor Lindelof 6 – Did nothing particularly wrong.
Tyrell Malacia 8 – United’s best defender. Made some superb runs and typically pitbull-ish in defence.
Fred 4.5 – Poor. Offered very little.
Scott McTominay 7 – Invisible in the first half but much better in the second. Unlucky with the curler. Nice goal at the death.
Bruno Fernandes 8.5 – Great assist and goal (or second assist…) but what was that off the goalline? Pass or shot?
Donny van de Beek 3 – Stop it now. Please.
Marcus Rashford 7.5 – Good goal. Good general performance without being spectacular.
Anthony Martial 7.5 – Good to have him back. Scored a goal and looked lively.
