This season, I'd go, relative to their positions:
Great - Pogba, Mata,
Very Good - Lindelof,
Pretty good - Williams, Fred
Meh - Shaw, Maguire, Martial, Rashford, James, Matic,
Not good - Tuanzebe, McTominay, Pereira, Greenwood
Bad - Wan-Bissaka, Young, Lingard
so yeah we need better passers of the ball. People will get mad about McTominay but he's a #8. Wan-Bissaka would be a not good but his 3 worst passes in a game tend to be shocking and he can't cross, though his dribbling and good sense of space mean he gives himself easier passers to make than basically anyone else we have, which is why isolating a skill/virtue is unsatisfying analytically anyways.
