MANCHESTER UNITED: De Gea; Rafael, McNair, Rojo, Shaw; Blind; Valencia, Di Maria; Mata; Falcao, Van Persie... Subs: Lindegaard, Thorpe, Blackett, Fletcher, Fellaini, Januzaj, Wilson

Roberto Martinez looks pretty relaxed in his dugout, but he'll be fully aware that his Everton side need to start picking up serious points sooner rather than later.

Di Maria fizzes a low cross into the six-yard box. Can Falcao latch onto the loose ball? He can't. Everton escape.

Blind gets a stern telling off for a late challenge. Didn't look a whole lot different from Van Persie's card.

Di Maria unleashes a gorgeous flick into the path of Falcao. Sadly, the on loan striker snatches at his shot.

YELLOW! Muhamed Besic goes into the book, although that's largely because the United players refused to let play continue until a card was brandished.

Everton stroking the ball about with ease in midfield with Steven Pienaar displaying a few neat touches.

United marshal the set-piece effectively. Everton are growing in confidence.

ROUND ONE: Lukaku v McNair. The Everton striker tries to roll his marker; the United man stays with him and concedes a corner. Draw.

Juan Mata latches onto a cross at the back-post. However, instead of shooting, he dawdles and allows Baines to close him down. It breaks to Blind on the edge of the area, who fires over.

Di Maria glances up, spots an opening and shifts the ball onto his left foot. Can he get a shot in? Nope, he's pounced upon by two blue shirts.

Di Maria boots the ball past Tony Hibbert, but Stones charges across from centre-back to avert the danger.

YELLOW! Van Persie, moments after giving the ball away, clatters into Gareth Barry and deservedly goes into the book.

We're only eight minutes into this contest, but Daley Blind already looks incredible.

CHANCE! Robin van Persie runs across John Stones and diverts Angel di Maria's cross just over the woodwork.

Rafael gets forward for the first time. Unfortunately, his cross skims across the turf into a set of Everton legs.

CHANCE! Luke Shaw whips in a delivery from the left, which Falcao meets with his head... Tim Howard saves down to his left.

Romelu Lukaku locks on to Paddy McNair and immediately starts busting his body into the United youngster. So far, so good for the 19-year-old though.

WHACK! Antonio Valencia flies in and catches Leighton Baines. Aside from the kick-off, United have barely had a touch in the opening couple of minutes.
