From the highs of Tottenham Hotspur (a) to the lows of Carrow Road, Steve Bruce’s men have had their peaks and troughs already – and we’re only five games (including the Carabao Cup) into the campaign.
While the team may have had their ups and downs, what about the individuals?
Here are all 21 players used by Bruce this season – and their average marks out 10, as per our weekly ratings by NUFC writers Miles Starforth and Liam Kennedy.
It certainly makes for interesting reading. First up are goalkeepers and defenders...
9. Jamaal Lascelles - 6.25
The skipper was at his very best against Spurs with an 8/10. Been a mixed bag otherwise. Likes it when United backs are to the wall. SEASON IN FULL: 6/5/8/x/6 | Getty Images Photo: Mark Runnacles
10. Paul Dummett - 7
Outstanding start to the season for local boy Dummett. One of the most underrated defenders in the country. System suits him down to the ground. SEASON IN FULL: 6/6/9/x/7 | Getty Images Photo: Mark Runnacles
11. Federico Fernandez - 8
Just the one game, one man of the match v Leicester City. A top class operator. Some would say United's best 'central' defender. SEASON IN FULL: x/x/x/8/x | Getty Images Photo: Lintao Zhang
12. Ki Sung-yeung - 5
A very poor show at Norwich City. Doesn't seem to be in favour with Steve Bruce. SEASON IN FULL: x/5/x/x/x | Getty Images Photo: Jordan Mansfield
