David de Gea
Made a decent save with his feet but could do little about the opening goal. Saved well from Harry Wilson. 6
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Had defended soundly up until Joshua King flicked the ball over his head. Still nigh-on anonymous in the final third. 4
Victor Lindelof
Failed to rise for an early header and never regained composure. All over the place for King's goal. His regression continues. 3
Harry Maguire
For a captaincy contender, there was a lack of communication with the lethargic Lindelof. Looked slow at times. 5
Ashley Young
Lacked support at times at left-back and Bournemouth seized on the hesitancy to make it 1-0. Booked. 5
Fred
Okay on the ball and tried to force the issue but could not break Bournemouth down. 5
Scott McTominay
It would be churlish to say the hype had gone to his head but this was an uncharacteristically sloppy performance. 3
Andreas Pereira
Back to normal. Wasted decent half-chances at 0-0. Norwich was an anomaly. Pereira should not be United's playmaker. 3
Marcus Rashford
Killed the ball immaculately a couple of times and was targeted by the hatchet man. Stayed out on the wing and was restricted. 6
Daniel James
A regular thorn in the first-half and United's regular outlet until Bournemouth got a foothold in the game. 6
Anthony Martial
Strangely subdued after his performance at Norwich and 'rest' at Chelsea. Back on mercurial and maddening form. 4
Subs
Jesse Lingard
Didn't do enough. 5
Mason Greenwood
Hit the post. 6
Brandon Williams
Brought energy. 5
