Man Utd Player Ratings: PAOK - Diallo's Impact Was Real
Alright, let's be honest, this wasn't the most thrilling game, but hey, a win's a win, right? Especially when you're facing PAOK away in the Europa League. Man United didn't exactly set the pitch on fire, but they got the job done, thanks in part to a crucial contribution from young Amad Diallo.
Diallo's Dazzling Debut
Now, this kid's got serious potential. He came on as a sub and instantly injected some much-needed energy into the attack. His pace and skill were a constant threat, and he nearly bagged a goal with a wicked shot that just missed the target. I'm telling ya, this guy's got the X-factor.
The Rest of the Squad
De Gea: Solid as always, made a couple of important saves, nothing too spectacular.
Shaw: A little shaky in the first half, but he settled down and put in a decent shift.
Maguire: Did his job, didn't make any big mistakes, just… you know… being Maguire.
Lindelof: A good partner for Maguire, keeping things tight at the back.
McTominay: Worked his socks off in midfield, winning tackles and covering ground.
Fred: Always buzzing about, making things happen, he's definitely growing into his role.
Fernandes: Didn't quite pull the strings like we're used to, but he's still the main man in the attack.
Rashford: Had a couple of good runs, but couldn't find the back of the net.
Martial: A bit anonymous throughout, needs to start showing some real fire.
Greenwood: Didn't make much of an impact, I'm hoping he can get back to his best soon.
Overall:
It wasn't a classic performance, but it was a professional one. United did what they had to do and secured a crucial win. Diallo's performance was a bright spot, and if he keeps developing, he's going to be a real handful for defenders. I'm calling it: Diallo's going to be a future star.
