Aaron Wan-Bissaka had a howler against Everton.

At Old Trafford, the wing-back was given an open-goal opportunity from two yards.

Antony had struck a shot against the post - and the defender was given all the time in the world to hit the ball home.

But his shot edged past the post and it went out for a goal-kick. Online, Man Utd fans were pulling their hair out in rage - saying that they could not believe that the player had missed from that distance.

This Manchester United right back wan-bissaka plays football in a funny way

Both Wan-Bissaka and Antony should be fined a week's wages for those misses. You don't miss those chances even in school football. #MUFC #MUNEVE

Aaron Wan-Bissaka also needs to shape up. Poor passing, should’ve scored and killing attacks. Silly stuff that we’ll regret when they score from a set piece

Ferdinand believes Wan-Bissaka can have future

It comes after club legend Rio Ferdinand said in January that he feels Aaron Wan-Bissaka still has a future at Old Trafford.

"Yes there is something there," Ferdinand said on behalf of BT Sport. "The manager has obviously put his trust in Dalot on what he has seen on the training ground.

"I still stand by that (Wan-Bissaka being the best one-on-one defender in world football). I said the same thing he is not the best defender but he is the best one-v-one defender. If you had a job to do on a wide man one-v-one, I would pick him over every single right-back around.

"But obviously here are other elements of his game that aren't as good as other players. You have to give him credit because his nose has been put out of joint, he was the one with the shirt and the manager has come in and said 'you are not the guy any more', but when he has come in he has looked solid enough and that’s the attitude you want."
