Man Utd Player Ratings: Garnacho Squanders Chances vs Chelsea
Man Utd's young star Alejandro Garnacho was the talk of the town after a frustrating draw against Chelsea, but not for the reasons he'd have liked. The Red Devils missed a ton of chances, and while they managed to hold the Blues to a 1-1 draw, it wasn't exactly a display of brilliance.
So, how did the rest of the team perform? Let's take a look at the player ratings.
Garnacho's Golden Opportunity Wasted
Garnacho, the 18-year-old winger, came on as a sub and looked absolutely lively. He was definitely the biggest threat for United. He was buzzing around, trying to make something happen, and he had a few really good chances to score. But unfortunately, his finishing just wasn't there. He missed a couple of sitters, and even though he had a decent performance, he'll be kicking himself after the match.
De Gea Shines Again
David de Gea, the Spanish keeper, was his usual reliable self. He made a couple of crucial saves, especially in the first half. The Blues had their moments, but De Gea shut the door on them. You can always count on him to keep things tight at the back.
The Rest of the Squad
The rest of the team played alright, but nobody really stood out. Casemiro was solid as usual in midfield, but his passing was a bit sloppy at times. Bruno Fernandes was lively, but he lacked the killer instinct in the final third. And let's not even talk about Rashford. He was invisible for most of the game.
Overall
The draw was probably a fair result. Neither team really deserved to win. Man United had more chances, but they weren't clinical enough. They need to improve their finishing if they want to start winning consistently. And maybe they should think about bringing in a new striker.
Here's a quick rundown of the player ratings:
- Garnacho: 7/10 - missed chances, but was the most dangerous player on the pitch
- De Gea: 8/10 - crucial saves, excellent performance
- Casemiro: 6/10 - solid, but not spectacular
- Fernandes: 6/10 - lively, but ineffective in the final third
- Rashford: 4/10 - invisible for most of the match
