Man Utd defender Blackett determined to heed red card lessons

Manchester United defender Tyler Blackett is determined to learn from his red card suffered in defeat at Leicester City.

Blackett is available to face Everton after serving a one-match suspension following a red card in the 5-3 defeat at Leicester.

"It is definitely something I can learn from. It was a heightening occasion and was something that I have to put in the back of my mind," he told United Review.

"It was disappointing for me because I got sent off, but also for the team as we didn't perform to our best. The manager spoke to me afterwards and explained there were other options I could have chosen, rather than bringing the player down. It's definitely something I've learned from and will remember."
