Manchester United
Trending
David De Gea – 7/10
The Manchester United Player of the Year proved why he is winning that award for past three seasons. He was at his imperious best to keep United in the game as well as in the race for the top four.
Antonio Valencia – 6.5/10
Valencia came to life in the second half with his buccaneering runs down the right flank. He was sound defensively as well.
Chris Smalling – 7/10
He cannot put a foot wrong! It has been that kind of season for the English defender for his club. He was at his sturdy best to keep Norwich forwards at bay.
Marcos Rojo – 6/10
The Argentine playing in place of Daley Blind looked a bit shaky and haphazard for most of the first half but got his act together in second half of the game.
Matteo Darmian – 6/10
It has been a rough debut season for the Italian in England. He was looking good before he was stretchered off the pitch.
Michael Carrick – 5/10
It seems age has finally caught up with the midfield veteran or he has lost his will to play under Louis van Gaal. It was a very torrid display from the former Spurs midfielder.
Wayne Rooney – 6.5/10
He too, like Carrick was having a shocker of a game until he made amends by capitalizing on the Sebastian Bassong’s error. It was his experience and poise which bailed United out at the Carrow Road.
Juan Mata – 6.5/10
He is a victim of Louis van Gaal’s bizarre tactics. It was a game which demanded his creativity and vision from the centre but was shunted out on the right flank. Despite all this, the little Spaniard shone through and scored what can prove to be a vital goal in the race for Champions League qualification.
Jesse Lingard – 6/10
He did well to hold his own against the burly Norwich midfielders but he could’ve been more effective with his pace on the right wing. His work-rate is also praiseworthy.
Memphis Depay – 5/10
It has been a forgettable season for the Dutch winger in Manchester. Today was no different.
Ander Herrera – 6/10
He was drafted in the team due to Martial’s late injury and took a while to stamp himself on the game. Luckily, his mistakes went unpunished despite being adventurous in the second half.
Substitutes
Cameron Borthwick-Jackson – 6.5/10
The Young Player of the Year did well to deputize for the injured Darmian. He is continuing his dream run.
Morgan Schneiderlin – 6/10
He was brought on to shut the shop for the last quarter of the game and did what his gaffer had asked of him.
Timothy Fosu-Mensah - NA
Barely played any minutes to make an impact on the game.
