Manchester United had a strong sense of deja-vu in their first away trip of the season as they slumped to a 2-0 defeat at Tottenham after a particularly shoddy second-half display.

Marcus Rashford was desperately disappointing, missing the target with a free header but above all failing to trouble Tottenham's defenders as he again looked out of place at centre-forward.

United began the game brightly and had a strong penalty appeal for handball turned down, while Bruno Fernandes also spurned a free header. Spurs dominated the second period though, and took the lead when Pape Matar Sarr pounced in the area before a Lisandro Martinez own goal doubled their advantage and summed up United's miserable performance.

GOAL rates Man Utd's players from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium...

  • Aaron Wan-Bissaka Man Utd 2023-24Getty Images

    Goalkeeper & Defence

    Andre Onana (6/10):

    Took calculated risks on the ball and played some smart long-range passes. Made a good reaction save to thwart Destiny Udogie after the goal, which he could do little about.

    Aaron Wan-Bissaka (5/10):

    Looked solid for the opening 45 minutes then things took a downward turn and he was hooked for Diogo Dalot.

    Raphael Varane (6/10):

    One of the few players who did not play with lead in their feet.

    Lisandro Martinez (3/10):

    Some good early interventions were overshadowed by his mishaps for both goals. A weak block sent the ball to Pape Sarr for the first, then another sent it trickling into his own net.

    Luke Shaw (5/10):

    Left his left flank unguarded for the first goal. At least showed some character and tried to spark a response from his side.

  • Casemiro Man Utd 2023-24Getty Images

    Midfield

    Bruno Fernandes (5/10):

    Decent in the first half but missed the biggest chance of the game, somehow sending his free header over the bar.

    Casemiro (5/10):

    Struggled to impose himself on the game and lost the battle with Yves Bissouma.

    Mason Mount(5/10):

    Was good defensively in the first half and pressed aggressively while also linking up well with Alejandro Garnacho and Antony. Like his team-mates, faded after half-time.

    Attack

    Antony (5/10):

    Worked hard in the first half and was close to equalising in the second when his shot clattered the bar. Removed after 66 minutes.

    Marcus Rashford (4/10):

    Headed a clear chance over the bar after a fine pass from Fernandes. Struggled once more playing up top by himself. Had a strop on the bench after being substituted.

    Alejandro Garnacho (5/10):

    Had a couple of bright moments in the first half but soon faded. Poor defensively for the goal.

    Subs & Manager

    Christian Eriksen (5/10):

    Unlike against Wolves, he could do little to stop the rot.

    Jadon Sancho (6/10)

    An upgrade on Garnacho and should have started in his place.

    Diogo Dalot (5/A):

    Could have done more to prevent the second goal.

    Anthony Martial (N/A):

    Only came on in the 85th minute.

    Facundo Pellistri (N/A):

    Didn't have enough time to make an impact.

    Erik ten Hag (4/10):

    Played the same starting XI that had performed poorly against Wolves and his many substitutions failed to turn things around.
