Manchester United player ratings this season so far as six get 7/10 and one gets a 2

A third of the way into the season and Manchester United are still in the bottom half of the Premier League table.

United have lost five of their 11 league fixtures but Ruud van Nistelrooy's uplifting four-match stint as caretaker manager has ensured new head coach Ruben Amorim will inherit a more buoyant squad.

Amad, Bruno Fernandes, Manuel Ugarte and Casemiro regained form under Van Nistelrooy while Alejandro Garnacho tallied two more goals under the Dutchman. Here are how the United players have rated this season so far:

Lisandro Martinez

Seldom performed and was dropped for the first time in his United career at Aston Villa. His usually brilliant line-breaking
