Owen Hargreaves:

"The rest of the lads have all said that Everton away is a tough game, especially with the way they play. They've signed some good players recently. Until they signed Yakubu they played mainly with just Andy Johnson up front, but with this being a home game they'll probably play two up. Yakubu has a great physical presence and he's been a good goalscorer in the past.

"Everton are a good, hard-working team. They play together, don't make a lot of mistakes, defend very well and they're a strong team. They keep it quite simple, but they obviously have two good strikers going forward. It'll be a very tough game, but whenever Manchester United show up you're expected to win games, and we'll expect to win at Everton."
