Pickford 6.5 - Conceeded 2 but 2nd goal he did well to get a hand to it in my view. You normally see keepers rooted to the spot and shrugging shoulders there, for point blank headers. If he saved it people go nuts. Also his contribution to the build up with the smart pass down the line to Grealish shouldn't be over looked.
Rohl 5 Experiment over I think. Cross of the match though and a Right Midfield spot should be an option for us.
Tarks 6.8 got caught under the ball for the 2nd, where both CBs crossed retreating, but goal saving tackle and generally solid.
Branthwaite 6.8 slight positional faults for both goals, alongside some eye catching tackles.
Mykolenko 5.8 - At fault for the 1st goal and some shocking attacking moments.
Garner 6.4 off it still, but getting there. Started brightly but faded, should have come off 10 minutes earlier, hope he is not injured.
Armstrong 6.7 - Early card restricted him and then had a real battle to contend with Mainoo who was class. Great temperment to be trusted and to get through on an early yellow.
KDH 5.8 Workrate undeniable but things are not coming off for him last couple of games. Just one of those patches I think.
George 8 best player to start and MotM - brilliant strike for his goal and looks a real option on the right.
Barry 6.5 one chance missed which he met well, just didnt get over it, not a sitter at that pace by any means. Worked hard and attitude good, still needs to strengthen, as its going to be a long season for him up to.
Johnson 5 didn't protect Röhl and offered little going forward, looked a bit lost. Worrying and I think he should work his way in from the bench for the next few weeks. Probably to be replaced by Röhl.
Grealish 6.6 looked really off it first 15 mins but class shone through and started to influence the game more, especially when Hackney came on.
Hackney 8.3 - potential superstar, seems to get us playing, makes our play out from the back look far smoother and drives through midfield. Must be due a start again soon.
Maitland-Niles 9 Bit isolated for the goal with an overlap. Not really his fault. Then hits the goal of his life, an amazing moment to witness and we all go home happy.

Re: Everton v Man Utd - Player Ratings
Pickford - 6 - Don't think he made any real save of note and I don't think he could have done much on either of the goals, so just an average performance form him for me. Wouldn't feel right knocking him down a point though.
Rohl - 4 - Absolutely rinsed by Rashford. Love him but he's not a RB.
Tarkowski - 6 - He's just a bit crap but I didn't think he did anything terrible yesterday
Branthwaite - 6 - Ups and downs for me. The bit of play before HT was brilliant.
Mykolenko - 5 - I didn't think he was as bad as other people do yesterday but I do think he was terrible on the Mbeumo goal
Garner - 5 - Pretty rubbish for me. Obviously still catching up fitness-wise but just doesn't impact games enough for me.
Armstrong - 6 - Definitely had his wings clipped with the booking but thought he kept Fernandes pretty quiet and he's a consistent performer.
Johnson - 4 - Seemed on the periphery of the match, not involved, very much in his shell. Can see where the Palace fans are coming from. Needs to be doing better than that.
KDH - 4 - Usually his biggest fan but he was crap yesterday and some of his efforts on goal were massive wastes. Hopefully just a rare off day.
George - 7 - Banger of a goal and he does give players a difficult time, sometimes I do just want more end product when he does get past a player as it doesn't seem to amount to much a lot of the time. Hopefully that goal starts something on that front.
Barry - 5 - I thought he was okay, I do think he should have done better on the header chance he had. Was a thankless task for him yesterday though. Does some good stuff (the feint before shooting in the second half) and some bizarre stuff (the 5 yard lob cross to nobody)
Grealish - 7 - Just quality, wasn't he? Made all the right decisions, committed players, made a big difference when he came on.
Hackney - 8 - Man of the match for me. Always progressing the ball and I don't know if any of our other midfielders make the same actions that resulted in the George goal.
Maitland-Niles - 7 - Absolutely ridiculous goal and what a moment to remember! (He did get done on their second goal though but I'm not going to judge him hard for that given he's just got here)
