Everton manager Sean Dyche spoke to Sky Sports about the defeat at Old Trafford: “At the start of the season there were too many mistakes and it was the same today. In the first 32 minutes I thought we looked like a good team. We had the looking progressive. We played well and opened them up.

“One mistake led to another mistake and before you know it you’re down 2-0, then a third straight after kick-off. That’s my biggest complaint. It shows if you don’t stay not listening throughout the match, it doesn’t work for you and that was the case today.

“We have eradicated some mistakes since the start of the season. It is very difficult to make such blatant individual errors. It is a very difficult task. This needs to be resolved quickly.”

“I don’t expect our team to make so many mistakes again. They know this scenario well, he has been here for three or four years at this club. We are trying to break this pattern of working for a breakthrough, drop down, breakthrough, come down.

“It’s the next challenge to react in the next game. Every game is a big game, that’s true for Everton.”
