David de Gea
Much better with the ball at his feet and denied James Maddison with a fine save in his best display so far this season. 7
Diogo Dalot
Did superbly to start the move Jadon Sancho finished to score and was proactive in attack, slick on the ball but booked. 7
Raphael Varane
Did not put a foot wrong all night and it is perverse to think he was briefly fourth-choice centre-back in pre-season. Another superb performance. 8

Lisandro Martinez
Fared so well against Jamie Vardy the Leicester striker was taken off into the last five minutes. Defended stoutly in another fine performance. 8
Tyrell Malacia
Quietly efficient until he was harshly booked for upending Boubakary Soumare. Another positive and understated performance. 7
Scott McTominay
Anchored the midfield with discipline as Leicester tried to lure him into tight traps. Panicked at times in the second-half but solid. 6
Christian Eriksen
Elegant on the ball and kept United's play ticking over. Barely wasted a pass as United showed impressive control. 7
Bruno Fernandes
Hit his cue in the move for Sancho's goal and not as wasteful with the ball as he was at Southampton. Could have been more intense in final third. 6
Anthony Elanga
Provided energy up front but not particularly effective with the ball and he did not last 15 minutes of the second-half before he was hooked. 5
Jadon Sancho
Took his goal superbly to put United 1-0 up for his second of the season. Quiet thereafter and made way for Cristiano Ronaldo. 7
Marcus Rashford
Timed his assist for Sancho perfectly and was much better through the middle than on Saturday but never looked like scoring. 6
Subs
Casemiro
Proactive with his passing and only majorly erred once. 6
Cristiano Ronaldo
Used the ball well. and could have had a goal. 6
Fred
Came on to see out the game. 6
Manager
Surprised many by naming an unchanged side but United controlled the first-half and he acted proactively in the second by sending Casemiro on quickly. 7
