Some Manchester United supporters have expressed sympathy towards midfielder Donny van de Beek following Everton's dismal 5-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Monday evening.
Two goals from Harry Kane, solitary strikes from Heung-min Son and Sergio Reguilon and an own-goal from Michael Keane condemned Everton to their biggest defeat of the season, further increasing their relegation worries. The Toffees now find themselves just one place and one point above the bottom three.
United loanee Van de Beek, who joined the Goodison Park club in the January transfer window in pursuit of regular first-team football, started the contest in north London, earning his fourth consecutive Premier League start in the process. However, it proved to be a night to forget for the Dutchman as he was substituted in the second half with Spurs already four goals to the good.
