Ander Herrera – Didn’t have his finest match in a United shirt at the King Power, summed up by his unnecessary booking around the hour-mark. Can’t fault his industry and his effort but it just wasn’t the Spaniard’s day – will hope he can put it behind him ahead of next week. 5.
Paul Pogba – Played in a more defensive role in the middle of the pitch due to Carrick’s absence, and knocked the ball around confidently. Had less of a role in United’s attacking play but he distributed the ball around seamlessly to keep things moving. 7.
Juan Mata – Very much a game of two halves for the Spaniard on Sunday. Can count himself lucky to escape with a yellow from a reckless lunge early on, and looked a shadow of his fluid best with some loose passing, but he linked up very nicely with Mkhitaryan to slot in United’s third. 7.
