Cristian Ronaldo’s Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw against Chelsea on Sunday
CHELSEA
EDOUARD MENDY – 6
Did he touch the ball with his hands? Exposed for the goal and poor kick almost gave away a second.
TREVOH CHALOBAH – 7
Cruised through the first half but had his hands full with Rashford in the second.
THIAGO SILVA – 7
Solid at the back and made the most of Wan-Bissaka’s challenge to ensure his team won a penalty.

ANTONIO RUDIGER – 6.5
Missed glaring late chance having rattled the bar from 25 yards in the first half.
REECE JAMES – 6.5
Posed a threat from both flanks after switching, but quiet by his high standards.
RUBEN LOFTUS-CHEEK – 6.5
In for the injured Kante. Decent shift in midfield but headed late chance over.
JORGINHO – 6
His mis-control handed United the lead, and will be hugely relieved to equalise from the spot.
MARCOS ALONSO – 6.5
Never stopped running and no surprise he tired on his first league outing for two months.

HAKIM ZIYECH – 6
A real handful for United but couldn’t make the most of a handful of half chances.
TIMO WERNER – 5
Had to wait nearly an hour for the first of two clear opportunities but failed to convert either.
CALLUM HUDSON-ODOI – 7
Chelsea’s two best chances of the first half fell to him, but he couldn’t beat De Gea.

MANCHESTER UNITED
DAVID DE GEA – 7
Only beaten from the spot following his saves from Ziyech and Hudson-Odoi.
AARON WAN-BISSAKA – 5.5
Conceded penalty with careless challenge but made a vital interception to deny Werner.
ERIC BAILLY – 6.5
In for Maguire, got turned by Ziyech early on but gave away very little after that.
VICTOR LINDELOF – 6.5
It wasn’t pretty or easy, but he led the defensive effort as United hung on.

ALEX TELLES – 5.5
Struggled to stop a steady supply of crosses from the United, and rarely got forward.
SCOTT McTOMINAY – 7.5
Drove United on with his energy, even after he was booked just before half-time.
NEMANJA MATIC – 6.5
The extra defensive midfielder and a calming influence when United were being overrun.
FRED – 6
Worked tirelessly but guilty of poor attempt at a chip when handed a chance late on.
BRUNO FERNANDES – 5
Can’t fault his spirit but another hit and miss performance from the Portuguese.

JADON SANCHO – 7
