Man United vs Chelsea player ratings: Wan-Bissaka good but Daniel James poor

Here's how Manchester United players rated in their goalless draw with Chelsea on Saturday evening.

David de Gea

Handled with care in the greasy conditions and was never properly tested by Chelsea. 6

Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Defended solidly against the marauding Ben Chilwell and never looked like he was going to be beaten. 7

Victor Lindelof

Did nothing wrong and was a good aerial presence amid the Chelsea crosses. Read the game well and used the ball productively at times. 8

Harry Maguire

Dominant in aerial duels but so fortunate not to have conceded a penalty for grabbing Cesar Azpilicueta in a headlock. 7

Luke Shaw

Looks more comfortable in a back three than a back four. Not especially urgent getting forward and overlapping James. Booked. 5

Scott McTominay

Wasteful with the ball at times but his aggression countered the energy of N'Golo Kante and worked tirelessly. 6

Fred

Prompt with the ball and his awareness was impressive apart from a couple of mishaps. Made some key interceptions. 7

Juan Mata

Sprung Marcus Rashford through and tested Edouard Mendy in another accomplished individual display. Did not deserve to come off. 7

Bruno Fernandes

Quiet for spells and had a shot that was straight at Mendy. Did not do anything noteworthy in the second-half. 5

Daniel James

Did not vindicate his selection after an encouraging return at Newcastle last week. Chelsea had his number and he was lucky to start the second-half. 4

Marcus Rashford

Should have scored when sent through by Mata but shot straight at Mendy. Lost his disciplined in the dying embers but forced another fine save. 6

Subs

Paul Pogba

Had a decent opportunity but shot blocked. 6

Edinson Cavani

Almost scored with first touch. 6

Mason Greenwood

Came on late. 5

Manager

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Got some key selections wrong that he tried to address with proactive substitutions that did not quite come off. 6
