Subject: Times - Everton make their point EVERTON 1 MANCHESTER UNITED 1
BY OLIVER HOLT FOOTBALL CORRESPONDENT
THE route has already been mapped out for Manchester United on their
journey to the mastery of the universe. The circles on the globe have been
drawn round Monaco, Tokyo and Rio de Janeiro. Somehow, Goodison Park was
left off the itinerary.
Interspersing the glamour of their attempts on the Super Cup, the
Intercontinental Club Championship and the World Club Championship, there
will be a multiplicity of matches like that of yesterday, contests in which
United's domestic opponents give their all to try to rob the treble-winners
of some of the exoticism that has built up around them.
On Merseyside, the rare air that United have been breathing since they won
the European Cup was knocked out of them by an Everton side that looked far
more cohesive and determined than many had predicted.
In a match seething with raw challenges and dripping with sweat and toil,
any illusions United may have been under that their achievements of last
season had somehow elevated them to a cut above the rest of the FA Carling
Premiership were dispelled.
As opening statements go, this was nowhere near as persuasive or articulate
as Chelsea's demolition of Sunderland at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
United were brilliant in spells, stretching and teasing their opponents
with some breathtaking one-touch football in the first half.
They should have had more to show for their supremacy than a neatly taken
seventh- minute goal from Dwight Yorke, but, after the interval, as Everton
refused to let their work-rate drop and Richard Gough continued to play
flawlessly, the champions became more ponderous and predictable.
They still created chances but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, in particular, was
guilty of uncharacteristic profligacy and, four minutes from the end, Nick
Barmby's header across goal was deflected into his own net by Jaap Stam,
who had been utterly unbeatable until then.
There was more good news for Everton after the game when a statement from
Bill Kenwright suggested that he had moved closer to agreeing a deal to buy
the club from the unpopular Peter Johnson. Walter Smith, the manager, said
he would decide this week how to react to the transfer request from Francis
Jeffers, the young striker, who was left out of the squad yesterday.
United's failure to kill off the game when it was at their mercy in the
first half reflected more on their strikers than the creativity of their
midfield. But the unwillingness of their manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, to
rest on his laurels, was hinted at again after the game by a flurry of
rumours linking United with a bid for Rivaldo, Barcelona's Brazil midfield
player.
The gossip could be a product of the continuing struggle to persuade Roy
Keane to sign a new contract. If he continues to stall on the deal United
are offering him, it appears increasingly likely he will be sold, possibly
to Internazionale and possibly as early as this week. "I don't comment on
whispers," was all Ferguson would say about the move for Rivaldo.
Keane had shown as early as the third minute why the manager is desperate
to keep him at Old Trafford. His passing is often overlooked because of his
other, more combative strengths, but his early slide-rule ball freed Paul
Scholes, whose shot was well saved by Paul Gerrard.
Four minutes later, United looked as though they were about to cut loose.
Yorke made a clever run and was picked out by an equally astute pass from
Cole that took him beyond the Everton offside trap. Gerrard got his left
hand to Yorke's shot, but it bounced slowly into the net.
For the next 20 minutes, United controlled the game with ease, pulling
Everton from pillar to post, but when their possession failed to create
more chances, Everton dragged their way back into the match.
To begin with, they did it by harrying United out of their composure. Keane
was rattled by a series of uncompromising challenges from Mitch Ward and
Don Hutchison, and one irritable exchange between Gough and Beckham brought
Ferguson leaping to his feet.
Despite that, United should have gone farther ahead two minutes before
half-time. Yorke spun away from Dave Watson and Beckham played his pass
over the top of the defence to perfection. Yorke controlled it, but Gerrard
was equal to his stinging low shot.
Immediately after the interval, though, Everton signalled their intent.
Mark Bosnich, whose bungled clearances were a constant source of concern
for United's defence, failed to hold a volley from Hutchison and a mad
scramble ensued. Barmby took the ball round the goalkeeper but his shot was
kicked off the line by Phil Neville. Kevin Campbell tried to turn it back
in, but his attempt was blocked and the danger passed.
Everton looked vulnerable when they allowed United's forwards to turn and
run at them. On one occasion, Cole alarmed Watson with his pace and laid a
pass square to Solskjaer. The goal beckoned but he sliced his shot wide.
After Nicky Butt had been brought on to try to steady the ship, Everton
grabbed the equaliser they deserved. David Unsworth swung a cross deep to
the back post and when Barmby headed it back, Stam flicked it past Bosnich.
"It was a game played at a real English pace and I know that Walter Smith
can generate that kind of spirit in his sides," Ferguson said. "Everton
deserved a point because they worked their socks off and their level of
commitment was fantastic."

Subject: United make fresh bid to lure Rivaldo - Soccernet
By Graham Hunter
Monday, August 9, 1999
As Everton celebrated their first point against Manchester United for three
seasons in a 1-1 draw at Goodison Park yesterday, Sir Alex Ferguson was
attempting to revive his daring bid to sign Rivaldo from Barcelona.
The United boss will use everything in his power to persuade the gifted
Brazil playmaker to quit Spain for England before the Champions League
signing deadline later this month.
For his attempt to be successful, he will need to double United's existing
transfer record of £12.6 million and overcome two other daunting hurdles.
Rivaldo does not want to uproot his family before next summer and there
appears to be deadlock between Sir Alex and chairman Martin Edwards over
pay scales which is even now threatening divorce between the club and
captain Roy Keane.
Rivaldo would expect to earn at least as much as the £60,000 per week Keane
is reputed to be claiming.
Sir Alex yesterday paid tribute to Everton after a late Jaap Stam own goal
squared the match, saying: 'We had good chances but Everton's fighting
spirit probably deserved a draw.'
Everton vice-chairman Bill Kenwright announced that he has given owner
Peter Johnson 48 hours to think over a £20 million offer for his major
shareholding.

Subject: Telegraph Report - Stam's late slip lifts Everton
By Henry Winter
Everton (0) 1 Manchester Utd (1) 1
THE champions of England and Europe discovered yesterday that opposing teams
are now stirred even further by the sight of the red and black of Manchester
United. Everton's breathless passion-players, running themselves into the
ground as Goodison screamed itself hoarse, finally secured the point their
work-rate deserved when Jaap Stam headed into his own net to cancel out
Dwight Yorke's opener.
United had the chances to win but Everton had the character to draw. A game
played at breakneck pace, United's first competitive outing since the Treble
was achieved proved a tale of two centre-halves, of Stam's unfortunate
intervention and a classic display of the stopper's art by Richard Gough,
aged 37 but with all the coltish enthusiasm of a 17-year-old.
On his debut, Gough confirmed his reputation as one of those professionals
who never gives less than everything. His unwavering effort here set the
tone for Everton's performance, so delighting those faithful whose heads
were already spinning with news of further takeover talks involving Bill
Ken- wright.
Gough was magnificent, his contribution making a mockery of those who voted
Dwight Yorke man of the match. As United threatened to swamp Walter Smith's
team, as Roy Keane and Paul Scholes charged forward in wave after wave,
Gough held firm, making tackle after tackle, interception after
interception, despite sustaining a facial injury.
When the Scot was booked after one full-bloodied but clean challenge on Andy
Cole, Goodison roared its disbelief. In tandem with Dave Watson, another
37-year-old, Gough may prove one of Smith's most inspired recruits. The old
ones, it seems, are the best.
"I know Walter Smith well," said Sir Alex Ferguson, United's manager. "I
know he can generate the right team spirit, particularly with two warhorses
like Gough and Watson. As long as they're fresh, Everton will make it
difficult for teams. Everton showed their fighting spirit."
As for rumours linking United to Barcelona's Brazilian, Rivaldo, Ferguson
added: "You don't expect me to respond to whispers."
Smith, inevitably, agreed with Ferguson's assessment of his team. "We
deserved something for our level of commitment. We showed we can fight our
way through 90 minutes against one of the better teams around."
Everton's manager, whose team looked well organised and busy in their
4-4-1-1 formation, was clearly relieved to hear about the renewed takeover
talks. "It's not been an easy period for anyone working here," he said.
In a statement, Kenwright said: "I can confirm that over the weekend I've
had what I hope are positive discussions with Peter Johnson regarding the
acquisition of the majority shareholding in Everton Football Club. These
discussions will continue tomorrow and I hope to make an announcement
shortly after that." By close of play today, Everton's future could be
gaining a rosier hue.
One further pressing issue remains: the Francis Jeffers conundrum. Everton's
highly-regarded teenager, who requested a transfer on Friday, was excluded
from the matchday 16 and the game of brinkmanship may be drawing to a
conclusion. Quick, exciting and already familiar with England training,
Jeffers would be a huge loss to Goodison, particularly as Kevin Campbell
needs to prove himself over an entire season, not in the series of bursts
that have characterised his career.
Campbell never looked like scoring yesterday. Indeed, in the opening minutes
he never looked like seeing possession such was United's control. Keane,
whose locked contract talks may have precipitated the Rivaldo rumours,
released Scholes who drew the first of some good saves by Paul Gerrard.
Everton's keeper appeared more confident than United's. But despite the
generally nervy nature of Mark Bosnich's kicking, particularly when
addressing the ball with his left foot, the Australian provided the
launch-pad for Yorke's seventh-minute strike. The ball flew across the pitch
until it was met by Watson, whose clearance bounced back off Yorke towards
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
In a blur of movement around Everton's box, Solskjaer found Cole, who in
turn, released Yorke first-time through the middle. Gerrard narrowed the
angle but Yorke found the target off the goal- keeper's trailing hand.
Thoughts of a rout were dispelled when John Collins and Scot Gemmill began
to impose themselves on midfield, their industry matching that of Gough and
Watson. Don Hutchison, set up by Mitch Ward, went close with a header before
the game briefly turned nasty. Keane went into Hutchison, a legacy of an
earlier confrontation, and suddenly 16 players were involved, though it was
more bawling than brawling.
Three minutes into the second half, Everton should have equalised. Bosnich
failed to hold Hutchison's shot, Nicky Barmby's effort was cleared off the
line by Phil Neville and United then needed Henning Berg to deflect
Campbell's follow-up.
United, though, then displayed their qualities, attacking from all angles.
Keane was denied by Gerrard and Solskjaer fired wide but Everton held firm
and equalised with four minutes remaining. David Unsworth's deep cross from
the left was headed back by Barmby and Stam headed in.

Subject: FERGIE KEANE FOR CHANGE - Mirror
SIR ALEX Ferguson last night moved to settle the wages stand-off with Roy
Keane by insisting that Manchester United will have to break their pay
structure.
Republic of Ireland midfielder Keane has threatened to walk out on United as
a free agent next summer if they do not meet his wage demands of around
pounds 40,000 a week.
But Ferguson hinted that a compromise could be reached when he said: "The
club is going to have to change because life changes."
United fear that smashing their strict pay regime for Keane would force them
to shell out higher salaries for all their top stars.
But Ferguson clearly believes it would be better to do that than see the
influential midfielder leave for nothing under the Bosman ruling next
summer.
Keane, who is 28 tomorrow, has promised a decision on his future in the next
48 hours. His lawyer Michael Kennedy said: "Roy is giving serious
consideration to his position."

Subject: 365 Report EVERTON 1 MAN UTD 1 - STAM OWN GOAL GIVES POINT AWAY
Jaap Stam presented Everton with a draw they will cherish -
even if they will not know quite how they achieved it.
The European champions, England's Treble heroes, were
back to the bread-and-butter stuff after a summer as
showbiz stars touring the world in triumph.
On Merseyside in their FA Carling Premiership opener, Sir
Alex Ferguson's men enjoyed most of the possession but
confronted a side who just refused to lose.
The Reds must realise that it is going to be like this for the
next nine months. They will face teams desperate for any
crumb of a result from the master's table.
That Everton achieved what is for them a tremendous boost
to their confidence was the miracle. With another takeover
battle looming, and with boss Walter Smith axing wantaway
teenage star Francis Jeffers even from the bench, one
feared for Everton's chances.
They had been slaughtered on their own patch in the
previous two years by United, and only a supreme optimist
with blue-tinted spectacles, would really have given them a
chance of survival. But what Everton lacked in the sheer
class of United, they made up with guts.
John Collins in midfield, the ageing centre backs of Dave
Watson and Richard Gough, plus Don Hutchison's grit, all
kept Everton in the contest. And when Nicky Barmby saw his
looping header from the right deflected into his own net by
Stam with just three minutes left, Everton's little fantasy was
complete.
United had earlier gone back to business. Champions last
season on three fronts - the Premiership, Champions
League and FA Cup - there was an air of invincibility and
near majesty at times.
Once overcoming lower division clubs in this fashion, United,
at times, seem to play in second gear against down table
Premier fodder. But that was their downfall today.
Ferguson's men tried to play at arm's length, doing just
enough, but they will not get away with that sort of thinking
now that they are even more the target for everyone to
knock down.
Everything United did in a compelling first period was at their
own pace - able to control a game and then explode into a
flurry of passing and movement when they felt it was
needed. Everton huffed and puffed, kicked a bit and tried
their best to unsettle such supremely regal opponents with
little success.
United could have been miles ahead at the break. After two
minutes Roy Keane's chip played Paul Scholes clear in the
box, and it took a magnificent save from Paul Gerrard to
keep the scores level.
The measure of space that pass found in Everton's defence
should have had the alarm bells clanging. Four minutes
later it was too late.
A weak Dave Watson header gave United possession, and a
blur of quickfire passing between Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and
Andy Cole put Dwight Yorke into a similar amount of space.
This time there was no mistake, the shot lifted into the net
past a diving Gerrard.
Everton openings were few. Barmby cut away from Phil
Neville and raced away to blast a 20-yarder that dipped just
over the bar, and Mark Bosnich was forced into a flying
lunge at Kevin Campbell on the edge of the box.
The nearest Everton got in the first period was Don
Hutchison's header of a Mitch Ward cross on the far post,
the ball smacking against the outside of the upright.
The rest of the time Everton attempted to expose the
dreadful kicking from Bosnich, United learning life after
Peter Schmeichel will not be so easy. Keane got himself
booked for a two-footed lunge at Hutchison, which caused a
scrum of pushing and shoving players in which the Irishman
had Hutchison in a headlock at one point.
For all Everton's sweat and effort, had it not been for
Gerrard, United would have been out of sight. The man who
was out on loan at Oxford last season and is only in the
team because of Thomas Myhre's injury saved brilliantly
when David Beckham put Yorke clear. He then denied the
England midfielder as Beckham lashed an angled drive at
him.
But Everton kept at it, never losing hope and they should
have equalised three minutes after the break when Bosnich
spilled a Hutchison shot. Barmby's effort, though, was
blocked by Phil Neville before Henning Berg beat out
Campbell's follow-up.
Gerrard had to make another fine block from Keane, and
Solskjaer had the clearest of openings but sliced wide.
United looked to be trying to construct the perfect goal for
much of the half as Everton bravely toiled to keep them at
bay. But three minutes from time came the moment when
Everton's tireless effort paid off.
Dave Unsworth curled in a cross from the left, Barmby from
beyond the far post headed back into the six-yard box, and
Stam deflected the ball powerfully past Bosnich.
Goodison Park erupted, more in joyous disbelief, and
Everton had the unlikeliest of points. United, by now too
late, upped the tempo and Nicky Butt saw a cross-shot skid
past the far post and wide. Everton, though, held out for the
final minutes and escaped with a point that frankly never
looked possible.
