Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes, has said that the club’s 3-3 draw against Everton is another “big blow” to their hopes of winning the English Premier League (EPL) title this season.
Man United failed to beat Everton at Old Trafford, as goals from Edinson Cavani, Bruno Fernandes, Scott McTominay, Abdoulaye Doucoure, James Rodriguez and Dominic Calvert-Lewin ensured both teams shared a point each.
The result against Everton means Man United are now two points adrift leaders Manchester City, who have two games in hand.
Asked about Man United’s Premier League title chance after the game, Scholes told Premier League Productions: “That’s a big blow. If you are talking about title hopes, it’s a big blow for them. Of course, it’s.
“I just feel Paul Pogba going off was a big moment in the game. I thought they had complete control up to that point.
“Fred coming on, they lost control in the middle of the pitch. [Andre] Gomes, Doucoure and [Tom] Davies really started to take control of the game and that was a big blow for United.
“Conceding a goal that late, it Is not a good look. Are they totally out of it? It is going to be difficult from now on, I think.
“But they have got to keep going, they have got to keep fighting, they have got to keep believing.”
Man United will face West Ham the FA Cup fifth-round tie in their next game on Tuesday.
