Fulham 0-1 Crystal Palace

Marco Silva is looking rather pensive on the touchline.

They've only won one of their past six games at home before this one.

It hasn't necessarily been a happy hunting ground for them this season.

'Suddenly people are looking at Everton'

FT: Everton 2-2 Man Utd

Everton

Everton boss David Moyes speaking to TNT Sports: "I think it should have been more. When we were 2-0 up, we had chances to make it 3-0. We were up against a good side, I know they are not in a good place in the table. We did as well as we could do."

On the penalty decision: "I thought Ashley Young's jersey is undoubtedly pulled. I thought the on-field decision was correct and I was surprised that the referee was sent to VAR. It went against us today, we won't complain too much about it. That decision went against us."

"Today's result was a good result, we lost two points and gave away two poor goals but we played well in front of the crowd and overall I'm really pleased. Suddenly now people are looking at Everton a bit. More points, new stadium, hopefully, that will be in the Premier League."

'The situation we are in is very, very bad'

FT: Everton 2-2 Man Utd

Manchester United

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We started the game too late. Everton did very well in the first half. They have players that can play on the ball if they have space. We should have been more aggressive with the ball. They are very strong with long balls, second balls. We have to be much better on the ball. We can't wake up only when we are 2-0 down."

On scoring two goals from set pieces: "We need to score more from these situations. We need to be more aggressive and understand our positions when we attack. We scored from two set pieces today and obviously, it is really good but we need to improve a lot if we are going to get out of this situation. We need to be aware that the situation we are in is very, very bad."

On criticism from manager Ruben Amorim: "We are in a really bad position in the league, we are doing very bad. It's normal that he can say something that makes a headline because at Manchester United it is like that. I have been here a long time now and we have to realise how bad the situation is. We shouldn't need the manager to say something in order for us to improve to the standard that the manager demands."

'Definitely a shirt pull on Young'

FT: Everton 2-2 Man Utd

Everton

Everton boss David Moyes speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We should have probably gone 3-0 up which would have made it harder for Manchester United to come back. We should have done better but the momentum went in Manchester United's favour at that time."

On the penalty: "There is definitely a shirt pull on Ashley Young. I was surprised it went to VAR. The referee made his decision. From our point of view, it went against us but I'm really pleased with the players."

On Idrissa Gueye's performance: "He's been doing great, he's played really, really well and he is keeping it going. He does a great job for the team."

On Everton's good run of form: "Us picking up points, a few games ago, we were in a relegation battle. We are still in it somehow but we have to make sure we get out of it. Today was a difficult game."

'It was clear for the referee to overturn the decision'

FT: Everton 2-2 Man Utd

Manchester United

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We were soft during the first half but we managed to recover. We didn't exist in the first half and I see different things during the week so that's why I was frustrated."

On scoring from set pieces: "Set pieces are really important, especially in this competition, so we have to improve in all areas."

On the penalty: "What I saw, it was a little bit of a soft touch. It was clear for the referee to overturn the decision."
