Manchester United player ratings vs Leicester as Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez good

David de Gea

Much better with the ball at his feet and denied James Maddison with a fine save in his best display so far this season. 7

Diogo Dalot

Did superbly to start the move Jadon Sancho finished to score and was proactive in attack, slick on the ball but booked. 7

Raphael Varane

Tyrell Malacia

Quietly efficient until he was harshly booked for upending Boubakary Soumare. Another positive and understated performance. 7

Scott McTominay

Anchored the midfield with discipline as Leicester tried to lure him into tight traps. Panicked at times in the second-half but solid. 6

Bruno Fernandes

Hit his cue in the move for Sancho's goal and not as wasteful with the ball as he was at Southampton. Could have been more intense in final third. 6

Jadon Sancho

Took his goal superbly to put United 1-0 up for his second of the season. Quiet thereafter and made way for Cristiano Ronaldo. 7

Marcus Rashford

Timed his assist for Sancho perfectly and was much better through the middle than on Saturday but never looked like scoring. 6

Casemiro

Proactive with his passing and only majorly erred
