LW: Ashley Young – 7
Possibly United’s best player, Young was a positive threat down the left in the first half, but faded after the break.
AMC: Marouane Fellaini – 6
Struggled to impose himself—either on the ground or in the air—and didn’t vindicate van Gaal’s decision to make him the lance of United’s attack, although he was markedly better than his fellow attacking midfielder Rooney.
CM: Ander Herrera – 6
The Spanish midfielder looks to have regressed recently and was disappointing again against West Bromwich. Several passes were over-hit—he was marshalled well by Claudio Yacob.
