Jose Mourinho hails Manchester United's best performance of the season
Antonio Valencia's early thunderbolt set Manchester United up for a 4-0 win over Everton, but they needed a flurry of late goals to finally take down the visitors.
Former Everton striker Romelu Lukaku set up Mkhitaryan to sidefoot United's second after 83 minutes.
And Lukaku slammed in a third heading into stoppage time before Anthony Martial converted a late penalty.
And Mourinho, whose side have now won 4-0 three times in the Premier League this season, believes tonight’s victory was their best performance so far.
It was probably our best performance of the season

The Red Devils manager told Sky Sports: ”I think the performance was very good, especially in the first 30-35 minute.
“It was probably our best performance of the season.
"We pressed them and they did not have a chance to get out, they did not have a shot, it was very impressive.
“After that, Everton's good players came out and showed their qualities.
“They gave us difficulty but I looked behind me on the bench and saw alternatives.”
