Man Utd player ratings: Bruno Fernandes involved in everything positive but Andre Onana has absolute shocker
MANCHESTER UNTED slipped to another defeat with goalkeeper Andre Onana coming under fire again.
The United stopper was at fault for Morgan Gibbs-White‘s riffler that wrong-footed Onana.

Here is how SunSport’s Neil Custis rated United’s players from Old Trafford.
ANDRE ONANA – 3
Had an absolute shocker. For the second Forest goal Morgan Gibbs-White shot is straight down the middle along the floor.
It maybe swerves a foot at most and he somehow couldn’t stop it. For the third he just let it loop over his head. He cannot command his area.
LENY YORO – 6
The 19-year-old was making his first start for United and immediately looked unphased. Ruben Amorim has high hopes for someone he calls ‘a special talent’.
He is easing him into the team after his summer injury and subbed him just past the hour.
MATTHIJS DE LIGT – 5
Amorim has tasked him with bringing the ball out from the back to set United moves going.
Looked good in the first balf but what was he doing for Forest’s third as he let Chris Wood’s header go thinking it was going wide.
Lisandro Martinez lack of height was on show at Old Trafford[/caption]LISANDRO MARTINEZ – 4
It was said his lack of height would not be a problem but it was after 80 seconds here as Nikola Milenkovic headed home on 80 seconds.
Then for Forest’s third he didn’t known what to do as the ball went over him at the far post.
AMAD DIALLO – 7
Looking more and more like a United star with his positive forward runs from his new wing-back role.
Had a couple of good chances himself but shots were weak, then made a great run and cut back before setting up Fernandes for United’s second.
MANUEL UGARTE – 7
Looked constantly concerned with his defensive duties and understandably.
Is a solid presence on the pitch though and a decent buy compared to plenty of others.
Ugarte constantly concerned with his defensive duties and understandably[/caption]KOBBIE MAINOO – 6
Ugarte was having a good game in front of the back three allowing Mainoo to get further forward in the second-half when he became more of a threat.
DIOGO DALOT – 6
Compared to Amad on the opposite flank did not have much of an influence. Got forward a lot more in the second-half.
BRUNO FERNANDES – 7
Was always involved. But does the captain really have to contest every single decision the referee makes against his team.
Made up for his loose pass that gave away possession for Forest’s second by scoring a fine goal himself.
Bruno Fernandes pulled one back for Utd[/caption]RASMUS HOJLUND – 6
That’s three goals in three games after his pair against Bodo Glimt but there is still not enough movement from the front man.
ALEJANDRO GARNACHO – 5
Not his best game and looked far from happy when he was hauled off early in the second-half for Marcus Rashford.
Alejandro Garnacho looked far from happy when he was hauled off[/caption]SUBSTITUTIONS:
MARCUS RASHFORD (for Garnacho, 58) – 6
These are the games he should be starting and starring in but that’s just not the case.
MAZRAOUI (for Yoro 66) – 6
One of those the recruitment team did at least get right.
HARRY MAGUIRE (for De Ligt 65) – 6
When Amorim decides on his best starting eleven Maguire should be in it.
JOSHUA ZIRKZEE (for Ugarte 76) – 5
Not surprisingly failed to have an impact.
MASON MOUNT (for Fernandes 76) – 6
Amorim has high hopes for him but he is still to convince the United faithful. Needs a long injury free run.
