Martial Stars In Man United Players Rating

Man United failed to maintain a winning start in the Premier League as the team played out a 1-1 draw against Wolves at the Molineux Stadium on Monday.

Martial netted his 50th goal in the colours of the Red Devils in the 27th minute before Ruben Neves
leveled parity in the 55th minute.

Soccernet rated how the Man United players performed in the encounter against Wolves.

David de Gea: Had little or nothing to worry about as he was hardly tested by the Wolves players in the first half. However, in the second half, he could do nothing to save Wolves’ opening goal when he was first tested. 5.5

Aaron Wan-Bissaka: Made many darting runs that gave the Wolves left-full-back some moments of nightmare and added to United’s attacking drive. 5.5

Victor Lindelöf: Still has a lot to learn as his combination with Maguire has not fully gel. His recovery rate is still a suspect and that was utilized by the Wolves striker. 5

Harry Maguire: Yet to command himself in the United defense line as he could hardly compete with Wolves players pace and trickery. 5.

Luke Shaw: Was excellent against Wolves as he aided United attack with some sublime crosses that could not be converted by Martial and Rashford. 6

Scott McTominay: Failed to compose himself in the midfield as he found wanting any time the Wolves players are with the ball. 5

Paul Pogba: Had an excellent game and could have extended Man United lead if he had converted his penalty. 6

Daniel James: Still exhibiting some element of inexperience with his simulation that got him into the yellow book of the referee. 5

Jesse Lingard: Had a very quiet game as he played from the left flank. Played a role in Martial’s opening goal in the first half. 5.5

Marcus Rashford: Played the killer pass that set up Martial for United’s goal. 6

Anthony Martial: Had a brilliant display against Wolves as he calmly slotted home a well-timed pass from Rashord to net United’s first goal.

Subs

Mata: Had little or nothing to influence the game. 4

  • Are these ratings based on the same match from last night? Lingard is rated higher than James? And Pogba had na excellent game? Might be time to get new analysts at soccer net! Lingard isn't even good enough to start.
