Manchester United player ratings as Bruno Fernandes shines but Casemiro poor vs Bournemouth

Man United drew with Bournemouth in the Premier League and here are how the players rated at the Vitality Stadium.

Manchester United were forced to battle hard for a 2-2 at the Vitality Stadium after a difficult first half against Bournemouth.

Several players were way below their best levels again as Erik ten Hag’s side went in 2-1 down at the break. However, a better performance in the second period saw them draw level through Bruno Fernandes’ penalty.

Fernandes had levelled in the first period too, but Bournemouth struck twice either side of that through Dominic Solanke and Justin Kluivert in another disjointed display that saw the Cherries have numerous more chances.

The result leaves Ten Hag’s side seventh in the Premier League table. Here’s how the United players rated:

Andre Onana

Beaten far too easily at his near post by Justin Kluivert but denied the Dutchman shortly before half-time with what proved to be a vital stop. 5

Diogo Dalot

His worst performance for a while and he failed to pick up Kluivert when he received the ball to score. Had a more serene second half. 5

Willy Kambwala

Lost his first two early duels with Dominic Solanke and was sufficiently spooked that he lost his balance when the striker scored. Almost conceded a late penalty. 4

Harry Maguire

Soldiered on with an injury after an exchange with the medical staff and his presence for the full duration was one of the few positives. 6

Aaron Wan-Bissaka

The auxiliary left back was pulled this way and that during Bournemouth's dominant first half but he was more on the front foot in the second. 5

Casemiro

The only benefit in having him in the team is that it benefits Kobbie Mainoo. Flagged yet again. How bad must Sofyan Amrabat be to not get a look-in? 4

Kobbie Mainoo

One of the few respectable performers and his patience on the ball paid dividends when his deflected shot was handled by Adam Smith inside his own area. 6

Alejandro Garnacho

His 30th successive start and the workload took its toll. Had no joy in the first half and was substituted for Amad at the pause. 3

Bruno Fernandes

Bickered with Onana and then Ten Hag but equalised with a clinical volley and equalised again with a second-half penalty. 7

Marcus Rashford

Had a reasonably promising first half with some good approach play but finished wastefully with his opening. Quieter in the second half. 5

Rasmus Hojlund

Better than in recent weeks but famished amid the absence of any service from teammates. Tried his heart out to no avail. 5

Subs

Amad

Involved often enough but never looked like making an impact. 5

Mason Mount

Exerted little influence as United searched for a winner. 5

Manager

Named an unchanged team when it was utterly unwarranted and United had a worse first half than against Brentford and Liverpool. Proactive with the half-time change but bailed out by a penalty. 4
