Fernandes left out - Man Utd hammered, Bournemouth brilliant - how they rated
Another catastrophic day for Manchester United and a glorious one for Bournemouth - how did the players rate?
Manchester United suffered a 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford at the hands of Bournemouth, with captain Bruno Fernandes sitting on the bench for the match. BBC Sport's player ratings shed light on the performances of each team. Leny Yoro was pivotal in denying Rayan a tap-in, but made a costly mistake leading to the Cherries' opening goal.
Harry Maguire, who regained the captain's armband, made an early block and attempted to create chances at the other end. Ayden Heaven, substituted at the 64th minute, had promising moments but was given a yellow card for a reckless challenge. Diogo Dalot showed promise with his runs but had erratic shooting and a pass that led to the second goal.
Carlos Baleba, introduced at the 72nd minute, displayed bravery but failed to capitalize on his team's efforts. Andrey Santos had a poor tackle that resulted in a yellow card, but didn't have much impact overall. Amad Diallo showed skill but lacked accuracy in his passing. Mason Mount made erratic decisions, including crossing when he thought he had a teammate.
Bryan Mbeumo, introduced late, came close to scoring but missed his chance. Matheus Cunha and Lisandro Martinez, both introduced at half-time, had limited influence on the game. Substitutes such as Adam Smith, Antonio Silva, and Adrien Truffert put up solid performances, while Tyler Adams, Lewis Cook, and Rayan were pivotal in their respective positions.
