Hakim Ziyech (Right Winger): 7.5/10

Hakim Ziyech retained his spot in the eleven after featuring in the Champions League clash against Juventus. The Moroccan international looked lively throughout the game. But his decision-making was very frustrating at all times. It felt that Ziyech was overdoing everything which resulted in the play being broken down.

Timo Werner (Striker): 6/10

The German striker started his first game at the start of November after recovering from his hamstring injury. In the first half, Timo Werner played a flexible role and tried to drag Manchester United defenders to the wings. But despite having six shots none of them turned out to be on target and now it feels that patience is running thin for Werner.

Callum Hudson Odoi (Left Winger): 6.5/10

Callum Hudson Odoi made his eighth successive start in all competitions today and again was very wasteful in the final third with bad decision-making. The academy graduate should have opened the scoring in the third minute but was denied by David de Gea’s feet. With the busy Christmas period coming up, it seems like Callum Hudson Odoi is running out of time to nail down his place in the starting eleven.

Christian Pulisic (Right Wingback, Sub): 6/10

The American international came on for Marcos Alonso and played in the right wingback role for the last 13 minutes of the game. We might see more of this in the upcoming busy Christmas period.

Mason Mount (Right Winger, Sub): 6/10

Mason Mount came on for Callum Hudson Odoi in the 77th minute and was full of energy and tried to change the game but could not do much.

Romelu Lukaku (Striker, Sub): N/A

Romelu Lukaku played his first minutes after recovering from his ankle injury and replaced Timo Werner in the 81st minute but could not impact the game much.
