- Manchester United lost 3-0 to Bournemouth at Old Trafford, handing the visitors their third win at the ground in four years.
- Michael Carrick left captain Bruno Fernandes on the bench and unused throughout the 3-0 defeat.
- Youri Tielemans was rated 4 and replaced at halftime after failing to provide the secure possession Carrick wanted from him.
- Justin Kluivert delivered the free kick that created Bournemouth’s opening goal and received a 7 for another eye-catching display.
- Rayan scored the opener and earned one of just three 8 ratings, with Marcus Tavernier and Evanilson taking the other two.
- Senne Lammens was rated 4 after a "massive error" produced Bournemouth’s third goal, while Leny Yoro was rated 5 after slipping to gift the second.
Why it matters: Bournemouth won at Old Trafford for the third time in four years, and all three of the match's 8 ratings went to its players. Manchester United lost 3-0 and left captain Bruno Fernandes unused; for Carrick, the material issue is broader than captaincy, with Tielemans rated 4 and two United errors contributing to the defeat.
