Having changed his whole side from Sunday's win against Crystal Palace, Ralf Rangnick would have hoped to see performances to press for a place in the first team. It didn't really happen. With the exception of Mason Greenwood (see below) and possibly Eric Baily there was no one who suggested they could play in the first team next week. Most of the youngsters are not up to the level yet, Juan Mata and Nemanja Matic look ready for the veteran circuit, while Donny van de Beek and Jesse Lingard did nothing to suggest they will play a key role in the Rangnick revolution.

It's on us. It's our fault.
