Man United player ratings vs Crystal Palace: Luke Shaw and Eric Bailly good
Man Utd were held to a third goalless draw in succession at Crystal Palace and
here are how Solskjaer's players rated at Selhurst Park.
Dean Henderson - 8 (Nice Save
Handled Palace's aerial balls well and dealt with everything he faced with
confidence. Had nothing to do until huge save at the death.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka - 6
Much more adventurous on his old patch and a regular in the final third but
struggled to provide the telling pass.
Eric Bailly - 7
Reinforced his credentials to remain Harry Maguire's main partner for the rest
of the season. Did next to nothing wrong.
Harry Maguire - 6
Started so sloppily he had Ed Woodward smacking a seat in exasperation. Had
little to contend with amid Palace's reticence.
Luke Shaw - 6
Offered width and got into plenty of crossing positions but his delivery rarely
caused Palace problems.
Fred - 6
Made United tick with his zippy passing in a much-improved performance.
Sacrificed for a goal-getter in Scott McTominay.
Nemanja Matic - 6
Went close to getting the breakthrough with a deflected shot that was tipped
over. Offered balance in midfield.
Mason Greenwood - 5
So greedy and kept on running down blind alleys. Chastised by Bruno Fernandes
for his selfishness. A bit better in the second-half.
Bruno Fernandes - 4
Did not get into the game and when that happens United struggle. Became
increasingly frustrated and looks knackered.
Marcus Rashford - 3
Wasted another gilt-edged chance when he fired wide in the first-half and got
little right. Constantly ran into Palace defenders.
Edinson Cavani - 5
Blazed over when well placed to score and that was not his first glaring miss
of the season. Taken off in the 78th minute on his first appearance in 17 days.
Subs
Scott McTominay - 5
Came on to try and get a goal.
Daniel James - 5
Gave United energy.
Manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer - 6
Got the personnel right and was let down by a blunt front four. Had limited
options to call on from the bench but should maybe have chanced it with Amad.
