Given how much the youngster has grown under Ten Hag, it will not be right with Ten Hag to try to ruin his career. Rio Ferdinand commends a player representing One Man United for his great performance tonight. Not Amad, Not Garnacho
Today, Manchester United defeated Leicester City 3-0 in the Premier League with ease.
In his 250th United game, Bruno Fernandes gives the home team the lead in the 17th minute.
Noussair Mazraoui’s accurate cross into a hazardous area was instrumental in forcing an own goal and extending the Red Devils’ lead.
The visitors had an opportunity to gain more possession when United collapsed in the second half.
Alejandro Garnacho’s incredible curling goal from outside the area gave Ruud van Nistelrooy’s team three vital points.
Under the Dutchman’s leadership, United stayed undefeated during his four-game stint as temporary manager.
Andre Onana’s player ratings are 7 out of 10.
Wilfred Ndidi found it challenging to get a clean shot off because Onana was fast off his line, cutting the distance and reducing the angle.
Diogo Dalot: 4 out of 10.
Dalot was terrible at right back, and Abdul Fatawu, who is 20 years old, dominated him. It was right of Van Nistelrooy to remove him.
7/10 for Matthijs de Ligt
Under Ruben Amorim, De Ligt is expected to start in the centre after playing well at the back.
6/10 for Lisandro Martinez
In the first half, Jordan Ayew won a vital physical struggle over the Argentine.
When Dalot was replaced, he moved to left-back. Despite taking a few hard hits, he continued.
7/10 for Noussair Mazraoui
Mazraoui made another start at left-back and put in a beautiful cross that was diverted by Victor Kristiansen before it crossed the goal line.
Manuel Ugarte: 7 out of 10.
A series of starts has aided Ugarte’s transition. He was outstanding in the centre, recovering possession and making crucial tackles.
Special recognition should be given to his foresight in selecting Mazraoui in the lead-up to United’s second goal.
Casemiro: 6 out of 10.
Dalot gave the ball up cheaply, and the Brazil international won it with a powerful tackle. He did, however, also have a history of losing possession.
8/10 for Bruno Fernandes
Fernandes calmed early fears with an incredible curling shot, making his 250th appearance memorable. After working diligently, he was rewarded with an assist for Garnacho.
4/10 for Marcus Rashford
His lack of participation is concerning. Alejandro Garnacho rightfully took him off before the hour.
Amad Diallo: 7 out of 10.
The home fans cheered as Diallo’s quick feet earned him a free-kick in the second minute. Fernandes’ spectacular strike was assisted by him thanks to a deft backheel.
He had a fantastic chance to put United ahead three goals, but he shot straight at the goalie. He didn’t make much of an impression in the second half.
Rasmus Hojlund: 4 out of 10.
Hojlund took the Leicester centre-back away for their own goal with a clever play. But for him, it was just another calm afternoon.
Alternatives Alejandro Garnacho: 7 out of 10.
He was sent through by a fantastic cross-field pass from Ugarte, but he was unable to capitalise on the opportunity.
With a spectacular 20-yard strike into the upper left corner, he sealed the victory for his team.
Jonny Evans: 6 out of 10.
a straightforward matchup with his old team.
Joshua Zirkzee: 6 out of 10.
produced nothing of significance.
N/A for Christian Eriksen
It’s too late to grade.
