Altay Bayindir
United are facing a real issue in the goalkeeper position. Andre Onana is unconvincing (and injured), while Altay Bayindir inspires even less confidence. 3
Leny Yoro
Set for a standout season. One of three players to start every single pre-season tour match. 7
He’s composed with the ball and assertive in tackles.
Matthijs de Ligt
He defended well in the first half but struggled against Everton’s speed when he shifted to the right following Harry Maguire’s entrance. 6
Luke Shaw
Didn’t perform as confidently as he did against Bournemouth in United’s most disorganised defensive display of pre-season. 6
Amad
Proved to be a real handful with his nimble footwork. Won the foul that led to United’s first-half penalty and poses a significant attacking threat from the wing-back position. 7
Manuel Ugarte
A nightmare performance. Lost possession repeatedly, including for Everton’s first goal, and was lucky to last 72 minutes. Amorim’s system won’t function if one of his players can’t keep up with the pace, particularly in midfield. 2
Kobbie Mainoo
Unlike his midfield partner, he didn’t seem out of place amidst the technical quality in United’s team. Like Fernandes, he needs a more defensively sound player alongside him. 6
Diogo Dalot
Played on the left to make room for Amad, but wasn’t very effective. That position belongs to Patrick Dorgu. 5
Bryan Mbeumo
A quite impressive debut. Quick on the ball and already demonstrating a good understanding with his dynamic attacking partners. There’s much more to come. 7
Bruno Fernandes
Typically cool from the penalty spot, but didn’t offer much else of note. Was involved in a pushing match with Ndiaye when Everton equalised for the second time. 6
Matheus Cunha
His selection as centre-forward could suggest he’ll start the season as United’s No. 9 if the chase for Benjamin Sesko falls through. Showed some threatening link-up play with Amad. 7
Substitutes
Patrick Dorgu
Managed to get the fans on their feet with a delightful flick that created an opportunity in the final moments. He’s settling in well. 7
Mason Mount
He’s carrying on his excellent form from the end of last season into pre-season. His superb strike to put United 2-1 up in the second half was reminiscent of his Bilbao double. If he can stay injury-free, he’ll have a part to play in this system. 8
Ayden Heaven
Extremely unlucky to score an own goal. He knew nothing about it. 6
Harry Maguire
United probably can’t regularly field him alongside Matthijs de Ligt. Everton took advantage of their lack of pace. 6
Casemiro
Amorim needs to direct those Sesko funds towards a new midfielder who fits his requirements. 5
Rasmus Hojlund
The fact that Amorim started Cunha as his striker, despite Hojlund’s impressive performance against Bournemouth, might be a clear sign of his lack of confidence in the Dane. 5
Tyler Fredricson
Brought on late in the game for De Ligt. N/A
