Fernandes left out - Man Utd hammered, Bournemouth brilliant - how they rated

On a disappointing day for Manchester United, Bournemouth secured a convincing 3-0 victory at Old Trafford, marking their third win at the venue in the last four years. Captain Bruno Fernandes was omitted from the matchday squad by manager Michael Carrick, contributing to United's struggles throughout the game. BBC Sport's player ratings shed light on the performances of both teams.

For Manchester United, Senne Lammens showcased a solid performance, yet a monumental error gifted Bournemouth their third goal. Leny Yoro made a vital clearance to deny Evanilson a tap-in, subsequently losing control and allowing the second goal. Harry Maguire, who regained the captain's armband, blocked early chances and attempted to create chances on the other end.

Ayden Heaven, coming on as a substitute in the 64th minute, demonstrated promise but was heavily criticized for his yellow card. Carlos Baleba, also introduced late, provided a much-needed drive but struggled with his passing. Andrey Santos and Amad Diallo, who came on at 78 and 78 minutes respectively, lacked impact and accurate passing.

Mason Mount, who shared the field with Tielemans, struggled to get on the ball and was ultimately replaced. Bryan Mbeumo and Joshua Zirkzee had brief moments of action but were unable to influence the outcome.

For Bournemouth, Dorde Petrovic came into play in the 46th minute and was instrumental in denying Evanilson an opportunity. James Hill's ambitious long ball and crucial interception of Youri Tielemans' low cross prevented a third goal. Adam Smith and Antonio Silva maintained solidity throughout, while Adrien Truffert capitalized on Yoro's error to score the second goal.

Lewis Cook was effective in midfield, and Tyler Adams, despite being booked for a foul, dominated the midfield duel. Rayan and Evanilson both had scoring opportunities, with Evanilson netting Bournemouth's decisive third goal.
