Christian Eriksen and Alejandro Garnacho scored as Manchester United returned to winning ways in the Premier League away to Fulham.
David de Gea
Made a good save from a deflected effort at 0-0 and denied Carlos Vinicius and Tim Ream before being beaten by Daniel James. 7
Tyrell Malacia
Looked as uncomfortable as you might expect a left-back playing at right-back to look and was out of the picture for Daniel James’s equaliser. 4
Victor Lindelof
Vindicated his selection at centre-back over Harry Maguire and defended respectfully amid some testing onslaughts in each half.
Lisandro Martinez
United’s best player again. Defended stoutly and used the ball calmly, unlike most of his teammates amid Fulham’s pressing. 8
Luke Shaw
Bright in the attacking third and should have had an assist for a cross Anthony Martial nodded onto the roof of the net. 7
Casemiro
Converted defence into attack for the move Eriksen scored from and solid in front of the back four but had little respite from United’s forwards. 7
Christian Eriksen
Scored his first United goal to put them 1-0 up and should have got another just before the interval that proved to be crucial. But then he assisted Garnacho. 7
Anthony Elanga
Possibly selected to defend more than attack as Malacia was behind him and showed no conviction with the chance he had early in the second-half. Came off shortly thereafter. 5
Bruno Fernandes
Back in his best role and back to his best in the first-half, though there was an element of fortune with his deflected shot that Eriksen converted. Meekly surrendered the ball for Fulham’s equaliser. 5
Marcus Rashford
Erratic back in his best position on the left-hand side and prone to running down blind alleys when United needed to be more considerate on the ball. 5
Anthony Martial
As effective as he has been in his handful of appearances, there is scant evidence Martial is a dependable frontman and he wasted presentable chances. 6
Subs
Scott McTominay
A curious substitute at a curious time, he came on as a 10 and dropped back. The wrong change at the wrong time. 4
Alejandro Garnacho
Lively and linked up with Eriksen to get the winning goal. 8
Manager
Malacia at right-back was a necessary risk United rode out but the entrance of McTominay was the wrong substitution at the wrong time and it backfired but then Garnacho came on and won the game. 7
