Ralf Rangnick press conference LIVE Man United vs Everton early team news plus Cristiano Ronaldo updates

Ralf Rangnick will answer questions from the media on Friday afternoon.

United returned from the international break last week with an underwhelming performance against Leicester at Old Trafford. United went 1-0 down in that game but they immediately responded through Fred to save some face.

The Reds can't afford to drop points if they want to finish in the top four and that result was yet another huge blow.

United play relegation-threatened Everton this weekend at Goodison Park. Frank Lampard was appointed on Merseyside following Rafa Benitez's dismissal but the former Chelsea boss has been unable to inspire an improvement in fortunes.

Everton desperately need points and they drew 1-1 with United in the reverse fixture.
