David de Gea
Careless with his feet and then his footwork was awry for Harvey Barnes' equaliser. Leicester preyed on his discomfort with the ball at his feet. 5
Victor Lindelof
A surprise selection at right-back and looked as unomfortable as he was unconvincing. Came off injured in the second-half. 5
Eric Bailly
Caught cold by Jamie Vardy in the opening stages but coped reasonably well on his first start since the Tottenham trouncing in October but left Vardy uinmark for the leveller. 6
Harry Maguire
Clumsy for Barnes' equaliser with a clearance that did Bruno Fernandes no favours. Led United impressively amid their dominance but left Vardy unattended. 6
Luke Shaw
Not tested much defensively as Leicester targeted Lindelof and could have claimed an assist with a free-kick. United's most consistent performer. 7
Scott McTominay
Aggressive enough but United could not get hold of the ball in midfield until Paul Pogba came on. McTominay held the fort. 6
Fred
Admonished by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for being off with his usually piercing passes. Played through Rashford brilliantly for a great chance. 6
Bruno Fernandes
From deft with the first goal to daft for the equaliser. Spurned a free header to make it 2-1 but made amends by coolly putting United ahead again. 6
Daniel James
Did well for the goal but did little else against a higher class opponent than Leeds' Championship-standard defence. 5
Marcus Rashford
Atoned for squandering an easy chance by making it 1-0 but had a one-on-one shot repelled by Kasper Schmeichel at 1-1. 6
Anthony Martial
Embarked on a scintillating early run but offered little else in a performance he is synonymous with. Scored a one-on-one but was offside. 5
Subs
Paul Pogba
Sparked United's best period. 6
Axel Tuanzebe
Solid after replacing Lindelof. 6
Edinson Cavani
Excellent lay-off for Fernandes. 7
Manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
Lindelof at right-back was a predictably poor call but his substitutions helped United increase their dominance and win the game. 6
