Sean Dyche used Sir Alex Ferguson insult after Man Utd controversy: "We're used to it"

Sean Dyche has already earned some impressive results as he looks to drag Everton away from relegation danger, but a win against Manchester United on Saturday would trump them all - while also offering the manager some closure.

Everton have shown fighting spirit in recent weeks to claim late equalisers against Chelsea and Tottenham. Michael Keane struck at the death against Spurs on Monday, with Dyche's team surviving the dismissal of Abdoulaye Doucoure to peg back the London side.

Previous manager Frank Lampard oversaw a narrow home defeat against United earlier in the season, and Dyche is unlikely to have everything his own way against opponents battling for a top-four finish. He has won at Old Trafford before, though, claiming three points with Burnley in January 2020, and that result came after a controversial near-miss the previous season.
