David De Gea
Helpless for the first two goals on his return to the team and couldn’t build trust among the people in front of him. 3
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Angelino passed him so often that he must have been wearing an invisibility cloak. Wan-Bissaka doesn’t like to attack and doesn’t like to defend. 2
Victor Lindelof
Overwhelmed by Leipzig’s intensity and only looked pleasant in the quieter times of the game. Booked and replaced in the second half. 4th
Harry Maguire
Maguire was defensive to United’s defensive foreplay, if only he was that defensive on the pitch. Overrun by Leipzig’s fast strikers. Could be credited with the second goal. 3
Luke Shaw
On his return to the side flooded in a threesome and punished the rustiness of Leipzig. Was also booked. 4th
Alex Such
Made the same mistake as Wan-Bissaka for the second goal and was substituted off at half time. 3
Scott McTominay
Tried to get United up and running in the first half to no avail. I stayed to level the midfield. 5
Nemanja Matic
A risky choice that failed before the second minute. The inclusion of Matic via Donny van de Beek and Paul Pogba must have been canceled in Leipzig. 3
Bruno Fernandes
Isolated and quickly frustrated with no more midfield foil amid United’s draining defense. One of the more attentive players who was unlucky enough to hit the bar with a free kick but scored a penalty. 7th
Marcus Rashford
He’s had enough exertion to harm Leipzig, and his running had them on his hind foot, but he never really tested the goalkeeper. 5
Mason Greenwood
There was some virtuoso ability from Greenwood and while he hasn’t scored he’s undoubtedly back in shape. 6th
Subs
Donny van de Beek
Immediately offer another attack exit and gave United more meaning. 6th
Paul Pogba
Jumped imperiously to force the second gate in front of Maguire. Better than most teammates. 7th
Brandon Williams
Helped move United higher. 6th
Axel Tuanzebe
An odd late arrival, but its speed helped. 6th
Timothy Fosu-Mensah
A strange late arrival. 5
Manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
The formation was understandable, but some employees looked negatively at United, invited Leipzig and they got hammered. 3
