Manchester United player ratings: Jadon Sancho good but Cristiano Ronaldo poor vs Southampton

David de Gea

Kept well from Stuart Armstrong's effort and handled another shot securely in awkward conditions. Oddly, didn't dive for Che Adams' goal. 6

Diogo Dalot

Signalled his intent by developing his rapport with the Stretford End and played purposefully but was out of position when Adams struck and indecisive in the final third. 6

Raphael Varane

Encountered some early issues and he was drawn out of the backline to enable Adams to score in a one-on-one. 6

Harry Maguire

The first-half was mercifully serene for the United captain after criticism in midweek but he regressed in the second-half when Armando Broja skipped past him. 5

Luke Shaw

Blocked a goalbound strike from James Ward-Prowse and then sparked the breakaway. Lagged in the second-half against Kyle Walker-Peters. 6

Scott McTominay

Competitive against Ward-Prowse and Oriol Romeu and collected a booking. Once the Saints midfielders seized control, McTominay became swamped. Substituted. 5

Paul Pogba

His personal pattern continued of a fine first-half performance only to fade in the second. Endeavoured to effect the game. 6

Bruno Fernandes

Had a key role in the goal by releasing Marcus Rashford down the right but became frustrated as United let slip another lead. 6

Marcus Rashford

Began poorly but did well to pick out Jadon Sancho for the breakthrough. That was the standout moment of another difficult afternoon. 4

Jadon Sancho

Another fine individual performance. Decision-making let him down with one opening but he atoned by scoring. Not as involved after the pause. 7

Cristiano Ronaldo

Missed a sitter at 0-0, caught offside too often and looked immobile at times. If Edinson Cavani was up for it, he might have come on for Ronaldo. 3

Subs

Anthony Elanga

Lively. 6
