Manchester United FA Cup winner Paul McGrath says Everton deserved more from their 1-1 draw on Saturday.
McGrath wrote for the Sunday World: "You have to worry about Manchester United when their best player in their last two games has been goalkeeper David de Gea.
"He has made big saves against Villarreal and Everton and the Spaniard is not getting the credit he deserves for it because of the phenomenon at the other end of the pitch.
"I'll come back to Cristiano Ronaldo in a minute, but first I have to look back on another 90 minutes of disappointment at Old Trafford yesterday, where United were a curate's egg.
"We had good defending and great blocks from Raphael Varane and Victor Lindelof, as well as de Gea's saves, but despite all that Everton ran through United almost at will at times.
"It was lovely to watch if you are a Toffees fan, and it all contributed to a match that was very easy on the eye and certainly made my lunchtime pass quickly.
"But I was just thinking about how any decent Serie A team, with their almost sacred focus on defending, would have dealt with United yesterday.
"Juventus, or Roma or the Milan clubs, would have coped comfortably with United's attack and then they would have sliced through for goals on the break."
