David de Gea
His selection would have been controversial if United had not won so handsomely. Excellent save to deny Edin Visca but culpable for goal. 6
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Marcus Rashford was the right winger in name only but Wan-Bissaka did not offer additional support. He did not need to, mind. 6
Victor Lindelof
Avoided any dramas during a serene 45 minutes before he made way for Axel Tuanzebe to protect his back problem. 6
Harry Maguire
A stress-free evening for the United captain who is showing something like his best form after a rocky period earlier in the season. 6
Alex Telles
His corner led to the first goal though Telles' positioning vexed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick. Looked at ease again. 7
Donny van de Beek
A steelier performance from the Dutchman in a deeper role he looked more than comfortable in next to Fred. 7
Fred
The Brazilian's selection reinforced his importance and United are simply a better side with Fred as one of the midfield two. 7
Marcus Rashford
A threat almost from the off and might only be disappointed not to have scored from open play. Not shackled by starting on the right. 8
Bruno Fernandes
His thunderous half-volley is maybe his best goal for United and Fernandes was selfless in letting Rashford take the penalty. Deservedly rested. 8
Anthony Martial
Moved to accommodate Cavani and had Rafael da Silva on toast. The debate will rage on over whether he is better on the left. 7
Edinson Cavani
His deft touches brought teammates into play quickly and United benefited from having an out-and-out striker up top. 8
Subs
Axel Tuanzebe
Booked and misses the Paris Saint-Germain match next week. 5
Mason Greenwood
Greedy and his decision-making annoyed some teammates but assisted Daniel James. 6
Daniel James
Did not offer much of a threat until he scored in added time. 6
Brandon Williams
First appearance in nearly two months. 5
Nemanja Matic
Came on to shore things up. 5
Manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
Limited the number of changes with a top-heavy side that took Basaksehir to the cleaners and won the game with a half to spare. 8
