Manchester United 3-1 Everton: Marcus Rashford shines as Man Utd beat Everton in FA Cup
There was an irony in De Gea making such a huge blunder on the same day as United confirmed one-time England keeper Jack Butland had joined them on loan.
The former Spain keeper is still in negotiations over an extension to his contract, which expires in the summer. Mistakes like those in this game will strengthen United's position in believing he is not worth his current £375,000-a-week, although the belief is that a compromise position will eventually be reached.
However, with 10 wins out of 11 in all competitions, United are in good heart before a week that includes an EFL Cup quarter-final with League One Charlton before they entertain Manchester City on 14 January.Everton fans make their feelings known It is to the credit of Lampard's players that they clung on and had started to play themselves into the contest before De Gea's error gifted them an equaliser.
The players' collective contribution was recognised by the Everton fans after the final whistle but once more there were chants for those running the club to leave, rather than Lampard, who remains under pressure after two draws and six defeats in the past eight games.
