Man United player ratings for 2-1 Premier League win over Stoke City: David De Gea’s late save earns United all three points

CM) Michael Carrick – 6.5

Did well dropping deeper as a third centre-back, but often too quiet and failed to control the game towards then end when Stoke were pressing.

CM) Marouane Fellaini – 7

Was a vital physical presence against Stoke’s larger players, and got the all-important opening goal. Still prone to occasional sloppiness in possession in the middle however.
