Wayne Rooney, and Man Utd in general, looking so much better in a deeper role, where he can dictate play and let the faster guys play ahead of him.

Just watched the first half highlights. Lukaku's touch is absolutely abysmal considering he's be sold for £30m plus if and when he does go.

Van Gaal can be blameless if Utd were to lose this one.

Absolutely, contact was made with Barkley's leg before the ball was won. If players can get sent off for sliding tackles with studs shown despite winning the ball, then that is most definitely a penalty.

Everton seem to be liking that killer touch with the ball, otherwise they would be out of sight by now.

It's been a good cup tie. Looks like we might be seeing another half hour of it.

Everton look more potent when attacking, United in comparison are stand-off ish and wouldn't look out of place in League One.
