Chelsea piled more misery on Michael Carrick and 10-man Manchester United as they got back to winning ways in the Premier League.

After a goalless first half in west London, Morgan Rogers scored a brilliant opener before Lisandro Martinez was sent off for a foul on Wesley Fofana.

That handed Chelsea a penalty, which Cole Palmer converted to earn Xabi Alonso’s side a much-deserved three points.

Standard Sport’s Dom Smith was at Stamford Bridge to rate the Chelsea players’ performances...

Mike Penders 7

Made a couple of important saves but United’s shots were not that threatening... until Bryan Mbeumo’s stunning effort was superbly pushed against the crossbar in stoppage time.

Josh Acheampong 8

Chelsea’s most alert defender. Aware of danger and came careering in to make a few really vital challenges. A performance that bodes well for the future.

Wesley Fofana 4

The worst player in a Chelsea shirt once again, though he did improve in the second half after a first 45 minutes that exposed him defensively.

Levi Colwill 6

Got his head to a few crosses and was disciplined defensively for the Blues.

Pedro Neto 6

Worked hard, starting as a No9 and then moving out to the right flank. Had a few nice give-and-goes with Estevao.

Romeo Lavia 8

Chelsea’s man of the match. Put in a huge shift in the middle of the park and his interception led to Chelsea’s opener.

Moises Caicedo 6

Solid as ever in midfield, helping to calm things down in the middle when needed.

Marco Palestra 5

First start in all competitions and didn’t make the most of it. His pace and positioning were pretty poor.

Cole Palmer 7

Good defensively at cutting things out and then added his 50th Premier League goal for Chelsea from the penalty spot.

Estevao 7

Constantly tried to make things happen as he was finally handed his first league start under Alonso. Had two goals disallowed and was very bright.

Morgan Rogers 7

Scored a sensational opening goal to break the deadlock and deserves his 7/10 for that alone.

Pep Chavarria (Palestra, 74’) 5

Went to left-back (or left wing-back) to replace Palestra. Played to Palmer, who should have scored but blazed over.

Malo Gusto (Estevao, 87’) N/A

Danny Welbeck (Caicedo, 87’) N/A

Valentin Barco (Neto, 87’) N/A

Geovany Quenda (Palmer, 90+7’) N/A
