After an early shaky moment, which almost saw him give away a penalty when Manuel Lanzini robbed him in the area just six minutes in, he put on a real masterclass.
The ex-Atletico Madrid man looks to be the perfect long-term replacement for Fernandinho and doesn’t seem to be phased by the Premier League one bit.
It wasn’t quite the performance some hyped it to be but the England centre-back already looks like a massive upgrade for the Red Devils.
He’s going to need a bit of time to settle but looks like being a superb acquisition so far and should be able to showcase his offensive talents more in other games this season.
On paper, this was perhaps one of the most boring transfers of the summer. In practice, Sean Dyche added another weapon to his team and on day one it paid off.

The former Stoke City full-back – signed for £1million – grabbed two assists from crosses and could be set for a big year.
It took some time for the Frenchman to get going against Aston Villa but when he did, he hit them like a freight train.
As he adapts to Mauricio Pochettino’s tactics we expect he’ll be a real threat both with his creativity, progressive play, and goal-scoring.
Not many defenders come into the Premier League and immediately put in such an impressive rearguard display.
Even though the Villans eventually lost 3-1, he was in fine fettle and should be praised for the six clearances, and tidy 88 per cent pass success rate when he and his teammate were being dominated.
A loan deal turned permanent, his showing was less surprising given what he did in the Championship.
He did, though, make an astonishing 17 clearances, while also grabbing the assist for John McGinn’s opener in the 3-1 defeat.
Mings plays riskier passes but could be rewarded in other games.
We suggest you’re unlikely to ever see the former Crystal Palace man give anything less than 100 per cent in a match.
Already the man affectionately known as ‘Spider’ is launching his long legs into tackles and poking the ball away from its intended target.
He’s already got one clean sheet to his name and we expect a lot more.
Not only did the £20m Frenchman score one of Brighton’s goals, he put in a tigerish display up top.
He’s going to do the hard yards for Graham Potter and could cause several defences a problem with his pressing.
It was hard for anyone to stand out at Huddersfield last season but the Dane definitely did.
Surrounded by better players he put in a stunning display in the middle of the park for the Cherries.
Billing managed six tackles and four interceptions on the defensive side of his game while he also managed two key passes and three completed dribbles when going forward.
If it’s a sign of things to come we can’t wait to watch him thrive.
Having your Premier League debut come against Arsenal is always tough but the Brazilian looked more than ready.
He bullied the Gunners’ backline during the first period and was unlucky not to get a goal.
Joelinton already looks like an upgrade on Salomon Rondon due to his all-round game which saw him win tackles, interceptions, complete several dribbles and be a general nuisance.
As highlighted by talkSPORT.com, like Joelinton, the Frenchman already looks like an upgrade on his predecessor due to the work he puts in.
Haller will have easier days but is showing great promise for the Hammers.
What a cameo from the young Welshman. His brother didn’t have him in his Fantasy Football team but many others will from now on.
At which ever point of the match James enters the fray he’s going to cause havoc for teams on the counter.
