First Half analysis

De Gea: Didn’t have a save to make in the first half.

Rafael: Combining well with Januzaj opposite Marcos Alonso.

Evans: Opened the scoring after former teammate John O’Shea played him onside.

Smalling: Won all of his aerial battles in the opening frame.

Buttner: Has so far kept tabs on Adam Johnson.

Fletcher: Capped off a good first half by hitting the upright just before Evans scored.

Carrick: Has so far completed 92% of his passes.

Januzaj: Ripping Alonso to shreds.

Kagawa: United’s best playmaker so far—improved drastically after moving to the middle.

Welbeck: His movement allowing Welbeck and Januzaj creative freedom.

Hernandez: Took just one shot and was overall wasteful on the ball.
