Man Utd player ratings vs West Ham: Pogba good but Lingard and Martial poor

David de Gea

Saved well from Felipe Anderson late in the first-half but his poor throw allowed West Ham to work the ball from left to right and equalise. Made a big save from Michail Antonio. 7

Diogo Dalot

Fortunate to get away with Felipe Anderson's disallowed goal and struggled to effect the attack. Urged by Solskjaer to move further forward. 5

Chris Smalling

Disciplined alongside Phil Jones. Played the odd errant pass but was physical enough to deal with West Ham's lightweight forwards. 5

Phil Jones

Dealt with Javier Hernandez's movement robustly but did not do enough to suggest he should retain his place against Barcelona. 6

Marcos Rojo

Intercepted to spark the attack which led to the penalty. He regressed almost immediately from the restart and left Anderson unmarked to level. 3

Fred

Complemented Paul Pogba encouragingly in a deep-lying axis but waned after Anderson equalised early in the second-half. 6

Paul Pogba

Positioned in the deep role he occupies for France and used the ball prudently. Converted his penalties to end a two-month goal drought. 8

Juan Mata

Not everything he tried came off but industrious on and off the ball. Won the penalty before he was harshly hooked before the hour mark. 5

Jesse Lingard

Looks a shadow of the free-flowing forward before he pulled his hamstring over two months ago. Fortunate to finish the game. 3

Anthony Martial

Safe to describe his current form as a slump. Made error after error and still looks ring-rusty a month on since he returned from injury.  Won the penalty. 4

Romelu Lukaku

Looks drained of confidence and seemed in a rush to get rid of the ball. Not trustworthy enough to lead the line and made way for Mason Greenwood. 3

Subs

Marcus Rashford

Most energetic forward. 6

Mason Greenwood

Offered impetus. 5

Andreas Pereira

Ran around. 5
