Manchester United fans have called on the club to sell one player as soon as possible after watching their performance against Everton.

On Saturday morning, United travelled to face former manager David Moyes in their final match at Everton's Goodison Park.

After last week's loss to Tottenham Hotspur saw the Red Devils fall behind the Toffees in the Premier League table, fans had hoped that their side would rally for Saturday's match.

But with the half-time score sitting at 2-0 to the hosts, United fans have taken to social media to call out one player in particular, claiming he must be sold in the summer.

A goal from in form Everton striker Beto saw the hosts take the lead early in the half, while a mistake from United defender Harry Maguire gifted Abdoulaye Doucoure the chance to double Everton's lead before half-time.

Although United goalkeeper Andre Onana was able to parry a powerful shot from Jack Harrison, he was left helpless after Maguire failed to beat the Doucoure in the air, and fans are not happy.

Reacting to his performance in the first half, one fan wrote: "Maguire has the turning ability of a HGV lorry."

While one claimed: "Maguire’s one of the worst players I’ve ever seen at this club."

Another agreed, writing: "That defending from Harry Maguire is a real throwback to his bleakest days in a United shirt. United are being completely bullied."

And one demanded: "You can't tell me we are a serious club and give Maguire a new contract. Sell him in the summer."

If the result were to stay as it is, then it would leave United 15th in the league standings and just 12 points clear of the relegation zone.

While the thought of entering the relegation zone would seem alien to most United fans, with tough matches against Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and local rivals Manchester City all within their next five Premier League matches, it is becoming a real possibility.

Meanwhile a win would see Everton, who have been enjoying a fantastic run following the return of former manager Moyes, climb to 12th on the table.
