Manchester United vs Arsenal player ratings as Jadon Sancho and Bruno Fernandes good
23.07.2023 - 07:39 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Tom Heaton
Kept the scores level at 0-0 with a fine double-save and even managed an assist for Bruno Fernandes's opening goal. Earned acknowledgment from Erik ten Hag. 8
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Was the furthest forward in attacks at times. Wan-Bissaka's proactive movement offered United variety up top. 7
Raphael Varane
Another solid half. United have not conceded in the three halves Varane has played in across pre-season. 6
Lisandro Martinez
A full-blooded performance even in a friendly and he was booked for a rough tackle on Bukayo Saka. 7

Luke Shaw
Saka had the run on Shaw a couple of times but this was the left-back's first minutes in pre-season. 6
Mason Mount
Has developed a quick and auspicious rapport with Kobbie Mainoo, though Mount had little impact against his friend Declan Rice. 6
Kobbie Mainoo
Another encouraging half from the 18-year-old in his most thorough examination in pre-season. Used the ball well and unfazed. 7
Antony
Missed another good chance and his profligacy cannot be easily overlooked when he is prone to it in competitive matches. 6
Bruno Fernandes
Created a chance for Antony and then scored, via the assistance of the flimsy Aaron Ramsdale. Capped a good week for the captain. 7
Alejandro Garnacho
Occasionally threatened on the ball but did not have an outstanding chance, unlike his fellow forwards. 6
Jadon Sancho
Gradually building match rhythm and seized on Gabriel's dreadful error clinically to put United 2-0 up. 7
Subs
Diogo Dalot
Defended more than he attacked. 6
Harry Maguire
Looked more confident but booked for a clumsy foul. 6
Victor Lindelof
More aggressive than usual. 7
Brandon Williams
Similar to Dalot. 6
