David De Gea
He got the best touches to deflect Karlan Grant’s effort. He made one of his classic Conor Townsend spike saves seconds before United earned a penalty. 8
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Non-existent in attack too often despite West Brom’s reluctant approach. It just doesn’t do enough in the future. 5
Victor lindelof
He did not appear to be affected by his back problem and helped United to score a clean sheet. 6
Harry maguire
The only one who acted like a true United player from start to finish and started the breakaway Anthony Martial should have ended. 6
Alex tal
He took some time to adjust to the demands and there were a few loose moments and his speculative shots went wrong. 6
Nemanja Matic
He suffered the ignominy of a nutmeg but did little wrong. The problem was that United didn’t need two iron-clad midfielders against the 18th-ranked team. 5
Fred
Neat enough with the ball and tried to get United on attack but rarely played a memorable pass. 6
Juan Mata |
Too passive too often in the first half, but his cross was handled and it earned United a penalty. He made way for Cavani within the hour. 5
Bruno fernandes
He set Martial up for an easy shot, but was so frustrated that he retreated into a deeper role. Fortunate that the penalty awarded did not hold and was lucky to be able to retake his saved penalty. 6
Marcus rashford
Rusty after recovering from injury and squandered a great opportunity to nearly kill the game in the second half. 4
Anthony Martial
He had an early header saved before wasting a gold-edged opportunity soon after. I was going through the motions at times. 5
Manchester United managed a 1-0 win over West Brom to finally clinch a home victory in the Premier League this season.
It wasn’t pretty, but it means two wins in a row for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side, who have to balance League and Champions League engagements over a busy period in the coming weeks.

Edinson cavani
Fluffed a good chance. 4

It continued for the last 10 minutes. 5

He replaced Fred to protect the lead. 5
Manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
He overestimated West Brom by starting Matic with Fred and should have made a trade at halftime. Cavani for Mata was an adventurous move. 6
