Man Utd player ratings vs Huddersfield revealed as Phil Jones has a stinker

Manchester United's season to forget took yet another turn for the worse as relegated Huddersfield ruined their top-four hopes.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side will not play Champions League football next season after Isaac Mbenza's second-half equaliser

Scott McTominay's eighth minute goal got them off to a fine start.

But United struggled after and ultimately were outperformed by a team who before this game had only managed to record 14 points all season.

Paul Pogba hit the bar twice and the 1-1 draw leaves his future at Old Trafford in the balance with Real Madrid reportedly keen to sign him.

Here, our man JOHN CROSS was at the John Smith's Stadium to rate the players' performances...

Why Man Utd fans will want Man City to win FA Cup - if they finish sixth

Manchester United

De Gea 6 - Made smart save from Grant, but no chance on equaliser.

Young 5 - Should be a squad player, not a regular starter, best days behind him.

Jones 4 - Booked. Had another bad. game as Huddersfield got behind him.

Lindelof 5 - One of few success stories this season, but even he struggled.

Shaw 5 - Exposed on Huddersfield equaliser, should have stopped it.

Matic 5 - Was substituted early in the second half, lost his way recently.

McTominay 7 - MOTM. Is growing in every respect: confidence, stature and performance.

Pogba 5 - Just think how he will miss this if he gets a move to Madrid. Hit the bar.

Mata 6 -Full of energy and willing, some nice crosses but faded later on.

Sanchez 4 - Surprise starter, maybe to be in shop window. No takers. Got injured.

Rashford 6 - At least tried but missed chances and did not connect with team mates.

Huddersfield

Lossl 5 - Had a stinker on the opening goal. Provided an assist or Mbenza.

Durm 4 - Struggled and was replaced at half time by Smith.

Schindler 7 - Kept the defence together as he tried to lead by example.

Kongolo 6 - Struggled in defence whenever United got in behind.

Lowe 6 - Restricted to defensive duties, little chance to overlap.

Hogg 6 - Tried hard in midfield, probably the pick of the three.

Bacuna 5 - Mistake as he gave ball away in build-up to opening goal.

Mooy 6 - You cannot accuse him of lacking industry, but needs more quality.

Pritchard 7 - There’s Premier League promise in there, Town’s best player.

Mbenza 6 - Took his goal well - even if no-one could quite believe it.

Grant 6 - Forced de Gea into good save with his legs, ran the channels.
