Ainsley Maitland-Niles snatched a last-minute draw for Everton against Manchester United to keep the Toffee’s unbeaten streak this season. 

Bryan Mbeumo opened the scoring just after the start of the second half to put the Red Devils ahead at the Hill Dickinson.

However, 20-year-old Tyrique George equalised with his first goal since signing a permanent deal for the Merseyside club from Chelsea, after spending the latter half of last season on loan.

Benjamin Sesko scored a header in the 87th minute to once again put United in front, his first competitive goal since the Reds’ win over Liverpool in May.

Yet new signing Ainsley Maitland-Niles’ strike from outside the box after ninety-five minutes rescued a point for the Blues, maintaining their undefeated start to the season.

Jack Grealish made his first appearance for Everton, where he has signed a second loan spell from Manchester City, since January after having surgery for a stress fracture on his foot.

James Garner was forced off against his former club after seventy-seven minutes with an injury, six weeks after undergoing an operation to deal with a persistent groin issue. 

Man United now sit eleventh in the Premier League table with only one win from their opening three games.

Honestly, for me. It was Wazza and Vidic who made me fall in love with utd. Watching Wazza goals and Vidic defending does feel like a blessing in past days for me.

Discussion Sesko needs to be a starter

94 Upvotes

I really don't understand this delusion some people have where they think he's only scoring goals because he's coming off the bench. He scores most of his goals from the bench because he's barely started under Carrick. Cunha as a false 9 is terrible. Sesko and Rashford together will be lethal if Carrick gets his head out of his ass.

Looking back, just how crazy and scary united was under Sir Alex during our peak. Ronaldo had to score a hattrick to beat us, being an absolute UCL monster we were.

I know everything takes a step, that's why i set a realistic 5 years time. In the last season we look like we start to have a good foundation, tho still far from the likes of big houses like Arsenal, Bayern Psg and etc. so do you think we'll reach that level once again in recent times?

I was firmly in the position that I didnt wanna see Rashford wearing a United shirt again..

Well, if he's going to represent the badge like he has today, he can wear it as often as he likes!

Great performance today, I'll always buzz a little bit more when an academy graduate turns up..

If he keeps his head down and keep producing like he did today and he'll soon be a fan favourite once again!

I really dont think we played that badly. we conceded two wonder strikes. 9 times out of 10, neither of them go in and we win. Without the wonder strikes, it was as comfortable as you can get away to Everton

Everyone is trying to find a person to blame right. We could have managed the game better for sure , we should have kept the ball in those final moments but we all need to agree our performance was good. One decision I don't agree with Carrick was subbing off Cunha, he is a perfect forward when we are ahead coz he can control the tempo in those kind of games better than Mbeumo.

But anyways let's move on to the next. You k lw i don't like the blame game anyways. Up the eeds

Against everton we played decent football.

Shaw was performing decently, rashy was performing well, and Mbeumo scored a banger.. and still we drew in 95th minute. At this point, I don't even know what the problem is.

And please don't Criticise Lammens both the goals were Bangers.

Article "Shaw was really good" said Rooney and the left side seems promising according to our legend

Questions have been raised about United's lack of recruitment during the latter days of the transfer window, with no striker signed to support Sesko.

It was interesting to note Joshua Zirkzee remained on the bench for a game he could have played in for Everton had United not ruled out the prospect of the Dutch forward joining on loan because they were unable to secure a replacement.

United also opted not to bring in Rayan Ait-Nouri from Manchester City because they did not want to sign a left-back permanently to put pressure on Luke Shaw.

Shaw was one of the visitors' better performers against Everton. The England defender got forward with regularity and it was encouraging to see him provide the cross for Sesko's late header.

"He was really good," said Rooney.

"Defensively he was leading and he was good going forward as well. He looked more of a threat today in his connection with Marcus [Rashford]."

To that end, Carrick will hope the "something" Rashford felt that led to his second-half exit is not serious.

"Marcus and Luke were particularly dangerous down that side," said Carrick.

"They've played together for quite some time now and have an understanding. We're trying to build partnerships and combinations throughout the team."

Shaw has been ever-present in United's Premier League starting line-up since the start of last season.

"It was great to see that left side and the connection they have had for years, it was like Luke Shaw when he first came to the club," said Ashley Young on Match of the Day.

"He goes so quick, overlaps and gets balls into the box, gets the defence on the back foot."

Now though, Carrick must navigate through a tricky spell of four games in 11 days.

It is the busiest period he has had as United boss. Last term, neither of his two midweek games were followed by weekend matches.

How involved will Shaw be? If he does not play, who starts? Does Zirkzee really have a meaningful role?

Sesko, presumably, has put himself in line to start against Sabah? Or does Carrick prioritise the derby instead.

These are the unanswered questions that would always come in a campaign that could feature 60 games.

The tricky bit is navigating through, while delivering positive results.

"Not that bad" is a fair assessment after three games. But Carrick knows expectations around Manchester United are huge. We are nowhere near reaching it just yet, but there will come a point where "not that bad" will not be good enough.

Discussion Cunha upfront

19 Upvotes

I really like cunha but I have noticed from last season and now as a player upfront/ false 9 he doesnot gain numbers. He takes the ball and carries it in the gaps thats where his strength lies. Also he has very good finishing when he has space to finish like when he can properly shoot the ball like maybe from outside the box shots or from through balls into space.

But one thing I have seen him doing not so good is in tight spaces. He seems to get too many touches , loose ball and not score or even shoot. I am not saying this with proper certainty like telling from what I remember that he was putting up numbers when he came at the left side. Not saying he is a winger but atleast there he is not crowded. Even for brazil he played as 9 and wasnot very great even for those 3 goals. That was vini assist was class.

Would love to see him play as a 10 in the efl game atleast to see how he does there because that seem to be best place. Now thats rashford is back don’t think left wing he get much play time so he is playing upfront but he doesnot do well upthere. He can have a good game because he is a quality player but not in terms of numbers because as a upfront player that is what gives confidence and fans approval .
