As the acclaim poured in once again for Bruno Fernandes following his man-of-the-match display against Everton, there was evidence to suggest that Manchester United's real heroes at Goodison Park were being overlooked.
Yes, there were two goals and an assist for the Portuguese and a return to the kind of attacking display that saw him heralded as a revelation after joining the club in January, but there was another detail, too. One that was not missed by his manager.
That was the performance of the two men behind him, a solid platform that appears to provide United with the base from which to attack the rest of the season, and give Solskjaer the breathing space he needs in a bid to stave off questions over his own future.
