Man Utd player ratings vs Leicester: Marcus Rashford and Victor Lindelof good

David de Gea

Denied James Maddison at 0-0 and was in agile form to tip over Ben Chilwell's dipper. A much-needed return to form. 7

Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Overcame a back injury to make the line-up and kept Julian Gray and James Maddison in check for the majority as the Leicester wingers switched. 7

Victor Lindelof

Had a nervy start where Maddison got the better of him but regained his composure - and form. Shackled Jamie Vardy impressively. 8

Harry Maguire

Hesitant for the early Maddison chance but recovered and played with equanimity against his former teammates. Defended majestically against Demarai Gray. 8

Ashley Young

Reiterated his use as a squad player with a seasoned performance at left-back. Nobody in blue got the better of Young. 7

Scott McTominay

Stepped up in Paul Pogba's absence and set the tempo with his alacrity and aggression. Purposeful and positive throughout. 7

Nemanja Matic

Recalled to bring experience and that was apparent at times. Leicester's use of two holding midfielders eased the strain on Matic. 6

Andreas Pereira

Fortunate to start and almost immediately vindicated it with a free-kick Kasper Schmeichel saved. Not short of endeavour but lacked an end product. 6

Juan Mata

Played in his preferred playmaker role again and disappointed. Seemed stifled by Leicester's crowded midfield and could not really get going. 5

Daniel James

Quickly frightened Ricardo Pereira and showed again why the left wing is his fixed position now. Flitted in and out. 6

Marcus Rashford

Showed intelligence with the manner in which he won and then scored the penalty. Hit the woodwork with a second-half free-kick. 7

Subs

Fred

Looked bright. 6

Tahith Chong

Energetic. 6

Axel Tuanzebe

Came on in added time. N/A
