A stunning strike by Darren Fletcher and further efforts by Michael Carrick and Antonio Valencia handed the three points to Sir Alex Ferguson's men, who have moved back up to second in the standings, five points behind Barclays Premier League leaders Chelsea.
With United safely qualified for the knockout stage of the Champions League and international matches on the backburner until the spring, focus now turns to matters domestic, and Evra believes United must stay perfect if they are to reel in Chelsea at the summit.
“It is a good win, a great result, it was not easy against a tough team like Everton,” Evra said.
“I think when we scored the second goal it killed the game and that's why we won tonight.
“It was not easy after the international break, we are a little bit tired, but I think we played with a lot of experience.
“We are five points behind 1/8Chelsea3/8 now and we have to win every game into December now as we have already qualified in Europe and the internationals as well are finished.
“We need to focus on the league because we want to win it four times in a row.”
Reflecting on Fletcher's 20-yard effort which opened the scoring, Evra added: “Fletcher is a great player and it was an unbelievable goal.”

However Fergie is not helping matters recently with his comments about soft players Rooney being to young for captain.Now to really make our life hard with the FA as if it was hard anyway he has stated England will not win the World cup,his argument has alot of truth however he should have kept it shut.
We know the FA want the laegue to go down south this year.Just as Platinni did not want an all English final last year,and why they object to cameras,because if they had cameras last year would have been United Chelsea again in the final and France would not be in the world cup.

Evra is God?
Well, compared to Fawn Wrong Falls, he certainly does appear to have the power, so we can see why you're confused. Tevez seems to be thinking about retiring from football? And what of Robinho, he seems to want to retire football itself. And another draw? Oh no!

That "defeat" in Chelsea has done us more good than the others realise, and from now on we will also be beating the referees and not only the opponents. Siege mentality, BELIEVE.
