To be a player at United you have to cope with expectation, if Evans can't cope with being thought of our most promising defender and a future first team player then it is very unlikely that he will have the mental strength to suceed at the club regardless of talent.
John O'Shea is his name if you were wondering and he has made nearly 200 appearances for United, not exactly a bad career.

He is still miles away from being considered a first teamer let alone a world class article like Ronaldo. What Evans has is potential. Its nowhere near to what Maldini or other legends in that position had, but its enough to enable him a chance in our team, where he will be able to train, learn from the best, get few games here and there and develop that talent. Let us not get carried away because the chances of him failing are high.
The worse thing that it may happen to him now is that he starts believing some of the crap being thrown to him, (ie that he had made it). Once they get that attitude, they rarely keep on developing and that can be clearly seen by some of our once 'great' talent which ended up, either warming the bench or being sold on cheap.
