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...
17. Christian Atsu - 7
An incredible return from injury has breathed life into the United frontline. Breaks from deep at pace. Another whose style fits the system brilliantly. Seems like he's got a point to prove. SEASON IN FULL: x/x/7/7/7 | Getty Images Photo: Ian MacNicol
18. Allan Saint-Maximin - 6
A few moment of brilliance against Arsenal, the agony of injury after 16 minutes against Spurs. SEASON IN FULL: 7/x/5/x/x | Getty Images Photo: Ian MacNicol
19. Miguel Almiron - 6
Missed chances sums him up so far. Poor in front of goal, but much better further back. SEASON IN FULL: 6/5/6/x/7 | Getty Images Photo: Takashi Aoyama
20. Yoshinori Muto - 5.5
