Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho may well be regretting his decision to hand Marouane Fellaini a bit part in the Premier League clash with Everton at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n

For the former Toffees midfielders bit part turned into a major role when he came on and gave away a late penalty which cost the Red Devils dearly, giving the home side a draw and denying the visitors two vital points.<\/p>\n

The 1-1 scoreline seemed unlikely as the game played out until Fellaini felled Idrissa Gueye in the penalty area leaving\u00a0Leighton Baines to put the penalty kick away.<\/p>\n

United looked to be coping with a surge of pressure from Ronald Koeman\u2019s side in the latter stages of the second half as they tried to salvage something from the encounter.<\/p>\n

Zlatan Ibrahimovi\u0107 had given\u00a0the visitors the lead in the first half with a clever lob over and beyond the onrushing Maarten Stekelenburg.<\/p>\n

But that was all to change and the result left the Old Trafford manager in an unhappy mood when he faced reporters following the draw.<\/p>\n

Quizzed on giving away two points, the Portuguese coach\u00a0pointed out that he felt pundits have double standards when criticising his team.<\/p>\n

He said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“When my team are playing pragmatic football and winning matches and winning titles, you say it is not right and nice. When my teams play very, very well, there is a huge change in relation. Now you say what matters, no matter, is to get result.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Mourinho added that bringing on big Belgian Fellaini was aimed at coping with the Blues\u2019 arial threat.<\/p>\n

He added:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Everton is\u00a0not a passing team any more like they were in the past. Everton is a team that plays direct: goalkeeper direct, Ashley Williams direct, Ramiro Funes Mori direct. Everything direct.”<\/p>\n

“When you have on the bench a player with two metres in height you play the player in front of the defensive line to help the team to win the match.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
