Manchester United win Premier League title: how Sir Alex Ferguson's players have coped with the latest success Nemanja Vidic Suffered an early-season setback following return from a nine-month knee injury lay-off and has been used sparingly by Ferguson. The captain offers stability in the biggest games, though. Played: 17 7/10 Rio Ferdinand The 34-year-old has been outstanding throughout this campaign and done more than enough to earn a new contract, but England issue has marred his season. Played: 25 8/10 Jonny Evans The Northern Irishman has been a model of consistency at centre-half and has moved ahead of Jones and Smalling in the pecking order. Played: 20 7/10 Patrice Evra Has responded to the arrival of Dutch understudy Alex Buttner by rediscovering some of his best form, but he has been troubled when against pace this season. Played: 31 7/10 Alex Büttner Just three league outings for the Dutch left-back and he appears to be nothing more than cover for Evra. Athletic and energetic, but not top quality. Played: 3 5/10 Michael Carrick In terms of consistency, the England midfielder has been United player of the season. Only Robin van Persie has made more appearances. Played: 33 9/10 Darren Fletcher Made an unsuccessful attempt to return to action following a lengthy lay-off with colitis. Due to return next season. Played: 3 6/10 Nick Powell Made just two substitute appearances, but scored a stunning goal in 4-0 win against Wigan. Showed potential, but injuries halted his progress. Played: 2 6/10 Anderson So much talent and ability, but yet another season has passed the Brazilian midfielder by. Should be the team's driving force, but now set to be sold. Played: 13 5/10 Ryan Giggs By his own admission, Giggs struggled in early season and considered retirement, but the 39-year-old has returned to form in recent months. Played: 18 6/10 Paul Scholes The 38-year-old's season has been on hold since suffering a knee injury in January and he is running out of chances to return. Played: 14 5/10 Tom Cleverley The great enigma of this United team. Energetic and creative, but at 23, he should be having a greater impact on games. Played: 20 5/10 Shinji Kagawa The Japanese midfielder's bright start to the season was halted by injury, but he has since returned to form and looks promising for next season. Played: 18 7/10 Ashley Young Has the ability to be United's match-winner, but the former Aston Villa winger has not produced often enough this season. Played: 19 6/10 Antonio Valencia Appears to have struggled for confidence this season and rarely takes his man on as he did previously. Showed positive signs recently, however. Played: 26 5/10 Nani The Portuguese winger can be unplayable one minute and unwatchable the next. Too often this season, he has been the latter, which is why his future is uncertain. Played: 10 5/10 Wayne Rooney Arguably his worst season in a United shirt, but despite his struggle for form, Rooney has still contributed 12 goals in 24 league games. Played: 25 6/10 Robin van Persie His form has faded since his blistering start at United, but Van Persie's goals have been crucial in delivering the title. Played: 34 9/10 Danny Welbeck The England forward has proven a handful for all opposing defenders, but two goals all season is a woeful return for any striker. Played: 26 7/10 Javier Hernandez Ferguson is desperate to keep the Mexican forward happy and, despite starting many games as a substitute, Hernandez has contributed sixteen goals in all competitions.
