How did each player do though?
GK) David de Gea, 6
Had little to do throughout the match.
RB) Antonio Valencia, 7
Also had little to do defensively, but managed a great cross for Marouane Fellaini’s goal.
LB) Luke Shaw, 6
Didn’t attack as much you would expect in a match against such lowly opposition.
CB) Chris Smalling, 6
Was solid, if unspectacular against a weak side.
CB) Marcos Rojo, 7
Assured when tested by the Preston forwards, even if their attacks were rudimentary.
CM) Daley Blind, 7
Important to the Red Devils when in possession, but will be noticed more when playing against better sides.
CM) Ander Herrera, 8
Scored the important equaliser, and played well enough to make it hard to understand why Louis van Gaal doesn’t seem to trust him.
CM) Angel Di Maria, 5
Asked to stay further back than usual, and it seems hard to get both him and Wayne Rooney in the same team.
CAM) Marouane Fellaini, 8
He may not be the prettiest player to watch, but the Belgian does what is needed. Great header for the second goal.
ST) Radamel Falcao, 4
Didn’t miss any big chances this time, but was perhaps worse than that he was anonymous until being substituted.
ST) Wayne Rooney, 8
Finally given a chance up front and he scored, albeit from the penalty spot.
SUB) Ashley Young, 7
Was an improvement on Falcao when he came on for the Colombian, showing how much he has improved under van Gaal.
