3 Reasons why Manchester United won against Everton

#2 Manchester United benefiting from settling down

The French Connection

Jose Mourinho looks to have finally chanced upon the right combination for United. There were a couple of changes as Fred came into the midfield at the expense of the misfiring Romelu Lukaku.

When Pogba and Mata are given the freedom to run the show, Manchester United are an exciting watch and the Theatre of Dreams did not hold back in showing their appreciation as exciting passages of play- a bit of a rare thing at Trafford these days- unfolded thanks to the understanding that this particular group of players share with each other.

Pogba set up Martial for United's second goal of the night and would have bagged another assist had Romelu Lukaku decided not to waste a great opportunity to head home after he was found in space inside the area.

Marcus Rashford, Pogba and Martial were all guilty of missing gilt-edged chances though. However, the positive thing for United is that they are creating a lot of chances now and they have the quality to rattle defences. Hence, Mourinho should persist with Pogba, Mata, Martial and Rashford.
