Manchester United have encountered an issue ahead of the Everton clash, which will be music to the ears of supporters on Merseyside.
Sean Dyche is under pressure at Everton after a run of disappointing performances, despite the results suggesting things aren’t so bad.
One loss in eight games is nothing to be frowned upon, but there has been a lack of ideas and potency in front of goal that has caused some concern.
Of course, injuries haven’t helped as Youssef Chermiti and Armando Broja have been out since pre-season, but Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Beto are more than capable enough.
Next up is a trip to face Ruben Amorim and his new-look Manchester United side, and there appear to be some slight fitness issues currently at Old Trafford.
