Romelu Lukaku: 7/10

While the Belgian did not score, he played a part in both of Manchester United’s goals. In the first goal, he flicked the ball onto Marcus Rashford who buried it into the back of the net. Later in the match, he played the ball in towards the 18 yard box before it got lost, and Rashford buried in the back of the net.

In addition to his hand in the goals, he also showed creativity with his runs. Mourinho is using Lukaku as a striker primarily and play maker on occasion.
