My rankings can look harsh but they're not really.
10 = Keane vs Juve
1 = worst performance from a United player you've ever seen
5 = average performance by United standard (so 5 doesn't mean a bad performance!)

VDS 5
Fabio 3
Brown 3
Evans 4
Neville 6
Fletcher 5
Scholes 6
Nani 4
Valencia 4
Owen 6
Macheda 6

Rooney 6
Evra 7
Obertan 6 (maybe that's a little high because i'm comparing him to Nani)

Brown and Evans were shocking for the first two goals. Evans did a lot of the tiding up in the second half when CSKA weren't attacking in numbers so much. I hope it's Vidic and Evans against Chelsea and not Brown and Evans.

tbh I don't get all the Nani hate. Yes at times he is frustrating but he got an assist last night and could've had 1 or 2 more if the finishing wasn't so bad. He can provide goals. I think the problem is that people only focus on the bad and completely ignore the good because they have a vendetta against him. Valencia was another who was putting Owen and Macheda in good positions and had some good crosses like the one that scraped against Rooney's head. Thought we played well going forward, were just unlucky with the finishing. CSKA had 3 chances and the 2 quality (and yes Dzagoev and Krasic are quality) attacking players that they have ripped a makeshift defense, that hadn't played together previously, apart on those 3 chances. On another day we could've scored 5 or 6 and kept a clean sheet.
