Substitutes
Matt Ritchie (for Murphy, 53) – 8
Propelled United forward after his introduction in the second half and was a constant threat down the right flank as Watford struggled to match the Scotland international’s endeavour.
Deandre Yedlin (for Manquillo, 67) – 5
A minor improvement on Manquillo and offered more solidity at right wing-back. Yet again Yedlin’s crossing let him down and spurned a few decent openings for United.
Mikel Merino (for Diame, 84) – 6
Still being fed drips and drabs by Benitez but nearly grabbed a late leveller for United only to see his effort deflected wide.
