MYSTERIOUS: Manchester united player ratings as cristiano ronaldo and david de gea good vs chelsea - What They Never Told You

David de Gea

Kept the game goalless at the break with five saves, albeit all of them routine. Had no chance with Marcos Alonso's volley. 7

Diogo Dalot

Never got to grips with wing-back Alonso, who was effectively a winger and scored the opening goal. 5

Victor Lindelof

Loose with his positioning at times, especially in the first-half, but defended reasonably amid Chelsea's dominance. 6

Raphael Varane

Under the cosh in the first-half and sloppy at times but did his utmost to hold it together and protect De Gea. 6

Alex Telles

Pulled out of position frequently by Mason Mount to leave Reece James free but he needed more protection. Defended stoutly at times. 5

Scott McTominay

Never at the races against N'Golo Kante and Jorginho, which left Nemanja Matic exposed. Should have been substituted at half-time. 2

Nemanja Matic

Did his utmost to shield the defence but had next to no help. Rallied to create the chance for Cristiano Ronaldo to score. 6

Anthony Elanga

Another game against another elite side that passed him by. Spirited enough in the dying embers but largely ineffectual. 5

Bruno Fernandes

Did a lot of shouting but not a lot of running. Jorginho and Kante jogged past him into United territory. More intense in the second-half. 5

Marcus Rashford

In and out of the team like the Hokey Cokey and another forgettable performance. Did not pose any threat to Chelsea. 3

Cristiano Ronaldo

Offered a presence and tried to shake United out of apathy before he scored emphatically to equalise. 7

Subs

Juan Mata

Brought some flair to the attack. 6

Phil Jones

A solid cameo. 6

Alejandro Garnacho

Late cameo. N/A

Manager

Picked the predicted team and United were predictably pedestrian. Indebted to Ronaldo's clinical finishing for the draw. Brought on Garnacho. 5
