Manchester United Player Ratings vs Leicester City: Hojlund Ends Goal Drought as United Cruise to Victory

Manchester United wrapped up the month in style with an emphatic 3-0 victory over Leicester City at Old Trafford. The team delivered a commanding performance, with standout contributions from key players ensuring Ruben Amorim’s men walked away with a well-deserved win. Rasmus Hojlund finally ended his goal drought, Bruno Fernandes orchestrated play from midfield, and the defensive unit held firm to secure a clean sheet.

Andre Onana had a relatively uneventful evening but made an important early save to keep United in control. His distribution was reliable, and he exuded confidence in goal. Diogo Dalot put in a tireless shift on the right flank, balancing defensive duties with attacking support, although a few of his passes went astray. Matthijs de Ligt was a dominant presence at the back, showing composure on the ball and winning his aerial battles with ease. Lisandro Martinez brought his trademark aggression and excellent game reading, ensuring United’s backline remained unbreachable while also contributing to the build-up play. Luke Shaw, returning from injury, was cautious in his attacking movements but defensively solid, ensuring Leicester’s wingers had little joy on his flank.

In midfield, Kobbie Mainoo put in another assured display, showcasing remarkable composure as he disrupted Leicester’s attacks and recycled possession seamlessly. Bruno Fernandes was the standout performer, controlling the tempo, providing a sublime assist for Hojlund’s goal, and constantly creating openings for his teammates. Casemiro played a crucial role in shielding the defense, though his passing was not always as sharp as expected.

Alejandro Garnacho was a lively spark on the left wing, using his direct running to put Leicester’s defense under pressure and playing a key role in multiple attacking sequences. Mason Mount showed flashes of creativity and combined well with Fernandes, though he is still working his way back to top form. Hojlund, the long-awaited goal scorer, finally found the net with a composed finish, capping off a determined display where he constantly pressed Leicester’s backline.

Off the bench, Christian Eriksen added composure in midfield, helping United maintain control in the latter stages. Amad Diallo injected energy into the attack but had limited time to make a major impact, while Victor Lindelof was brought on to help secure the clean sheet.

Ruben Amorim got his tactics spot on, ensuring United remained compact while posing a constant attacking threat. The result leaves the team in high spirits as they look ahead to their next challenge, with Hojlund finding his scoring touch and Fernandes dictating play. Amorim’s side seems to be hitting their stride at a crucial moment in the season.
