Manchester United player ratings: Victor Lindelof and Marcus Rashford good vs Granada
Lindelof #Lindelof
David de Gea
Handled some straight but firm shots from Kenedy faultlessly. Confident night, even if he did not have a ‘proper’ save to make. 7
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Excellent composure in his own third that he should transmit to the final third more often. 7
Victor Lindelof
Fabulous pick-out for Marcus Rashford’s goal and bailed out Harry Maguire when he was beaten by Yangel Herrera. 8
Harry Maguire
A largely serene night alongside Lindelof, save one transgression. Showed adventure in the final third a couple of times. 7
Luke Shaw
Maintained his consistent performance level but booked and suspended for the second leg. Substituted at half-time. 6
Scott McTominay
Shielded the back four next to Paul Pogba and then Nemanja Matic. Also banned for next week’s return leg. 6
Paul Pogba
Seemed inhibited by his early yellow card and the card-happy referee contributed to Pogba’s second-half removal. 6
Daniel James
Said it all he only ever looked a threat off the ball. Looked restricted again on the right wing and livelier on the left. 6
Bruno Fernandes
Whined too much in the first-half and never looked likely in the second until he won a penalty that he converted. 6
Marcus Rashford
Overcame apparent discomfort at the start to score superbly before coming off just past the hour. 7
Mason Greenwood
Still too raw to expertly lead the line. Often isolated and naive when he did get the ball and moved to the right to accommodate Edinson Cavani. 4

Subs
Alex Telles
Handy at dead ball situations and from open play. 7
Edinson Cavani
Finally played in the Europa League for United. More experienced than Greenwood. 6
Nemanja Matic
Harshly booked. 5
Donny van de Beek
Another cameo. 5
Manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
Retaining Rashford was vindicated, ditto the clear-and-obvious back four even though Telles came on at the pause. 7
