Manchester United are focused on Premier League success - Patrice Evra and Darren Fletcher
The Red Devils are more than focused on title success...
By David Kifford
Manchester United players are focused on their club and winning the Premier League, according to Patrice Evra and Darren Fletcher.
Evra put in a Man of the Match performance as the Red Devils brushed Everton aside with a three-nil victory at Old Trafford.
Evra told ESPN, "I think it's a good win and a great result.
"It's not easy against a tough team like Everton but when we scored the second goal we killed the game and that's why we won tonight."
Scottish international Darren Fletcher broke the deadlock with a superb goal in the first half, he said, "Everton were making it difficult for us with ten men behind the ball.
"I concentrated on getting a good connection on the ball and fortunately it went in the top corner."
Evra was quick to praise his teammate for the strike as he watched a replay, "Phwoar! That is an unbelievable goal, Fletcher is a great player and that is an unbelievable goal."
The pair seemed relaxed after United picked up three easy points against an injury savaged Everton outfit, but both players are focused on picking up another Premier League title.
French full-back Evra said, "We are five points behind and we need to win.
"We are already through in Europe and we need to focus on the league."
Fletcher echoed his teammates comments, saying "Champions league is important but we want to win the league and now it's all club, club, club."
