9. John Fleck 8
Fleck was everywhere in the first half and capped an impressive display with the opening goal, after Lundstam’s shot rebounded off his shin/knee and into the corner. Superb pass for Mousset’s goal Photo: Simon Bellis
10. David McGoldrick 8
Denied an opening goal by a stunning save by De Gea and a few brilliant touches wowed the crowd, including a delightful dummy for Fleck Photo: James Wilson
11. Lys Mousset 8
Had a great running battle with Jones and Maguire early on and set up United’s opener by outmuscling Jones and finding Lundstram. Scored a superb second before succumbing to a hamstring injury Photo: James Wilson
12. Oli McBurnie 8
Came off the bench to rescue a point for the Blades, even if a VAR check did cause a nervy 30 seconds or more Photo: Simon Bellis
