IC.....where is Darren Ferguson?
Maldini was a gem at the same level Ryan Giggs was. At 17 he made his debut and never looked back. Now Ive mentioned him not to discredit Evans in anyway. First of all because I do rate the irish man, secondly because players like Maldini are not rare but unique. I mentioned Maldini to highlight the fact that if Evans is as good as you are potraying him to be (the world at his feet and similar BS) then he would have won his place long ago. Maldini did it, Baresi did it, Buffon did it and they never looked back.
Therefore let us be realistic, work on the facts and conclude that while he has potential and he had done pretty well with Ireland and Sunderland, it is still too early to say whether he will make it or not. FFS we are looking more ridiculous then the Scousers with their Carragher is the best defender in the world brigade. At least they talk in that way about an experienced defender who had lead them to the CL and not some youngster who got ridiculed by a 1st division striker.
