Manchester United vs RB Leipzig player ranking: David de Gea poor but Paul Pogba decent – Samuel Luckhurst



[ad_1]

David De Gea

Helpless for the first two goals on his return to the team and failed to instill confidence in those in front of him. 3

Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Angelino ghosted past him so often that he must have been wearing an invisibility cloak. Wan-Bissaka does not like to attack and does not like to defend. 2

Victor lindelof

Overwhelmed by the intensity of Leipzig and only seemed comfortable during the quieter periods of the game. Warning in the second half and substituted. 4

Harry maguire

Maguire was on the defensive of the United defense before the game and if only he was so defensive on the field. Invaded by the rapid forwards of Leipzig. It could be credited with the second goal. 3

Luke shaw

Crushed on his return to the side in a three-way behind and rust was punished by Leipzig. It was also reserved. 4

Alex tal

He made the same mistake as Wan-Bissaka for the second goal and was substituted at half-time. 3

Scott McTominay

He tried to get United going in the first half with little success. He stayed to balance the midfield. 5

Nemanja Matic

A risky selection that flopped before the second minute mark. The inclusion of Matic on Donny van de Beek and Paul Pogba should have lifted Leipzig. 3

Bruno fernandes

Isolated with no other contrast in midfield and quickly became frustrated amid United’s porous defense. One of the most alert and unlucky players to hit the crossbar with a free kick but scored a penalty. 7

Marcus rashford

He had enough efforts to damage Leipzig and his career had them on the back foot, but he never adequately tested the goalkeeper. 5

Mason Greenwood

There were some virtuous pieces of skill from Greenwood and while he did not score, it is undeniable that he is back in shape. 6



Subs

Donny van de Beek

He immediately offered another offensive outlet and gave United more purpose. 6

Paul pogba

He jumped imperiously to force Maguire’s second goal. Better than most peers. 7

Brandon williams

He helped push United higher up the field. 6

Axel tuanzebe

A strange late arrival, but his speed helped. 6

Timothy Fosu-Mensah

A strange late arrival. 5

Manager

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

The formation was understandable, but some staff members looked down on United, invited Leipzig and got beaten up. 3
