If Evans becomes the next Brown I'd be happy.

He's got a lot more potential than that imo.

I'd be pissed off if he becomes the next Brown. I can see a potential world class player.

Indeed. That would be a fantastic selection headache for Sir Alex.

Needs bit more meat over his bones and then he'll be fine. In the Chelsea game many Chelsea players got past him and also won almost every ball against him, because he's bit too lightweight. But there's no problem with his playing otherwise, he clears the ball away and does the job what he has to do.

Well that's bollocks, for a start. He was generally very good against Chelsea, and he certainly wasn't skinned like you seem to be suggesting.

Yeah he was good in the game, but he got skinned few times. Ferdinand saved him in the first half when he almost let Anelka or someone else get through but Ferdinand just cleared the ball and it went as a throwing. And he lost really many balls in the air. But he's still young and learning, he will be great in the future.

I think he'll get 10+ games this season which is a start. He's looking composed but celtic had no real dangerous forward. It's good for his morale and confidence

Celtic was a non-threat, but his composure and ball-playing skills are totally class. As is his distribution from the back. No wonder why SAF reassures his future at OT.

Christ, here we go again. He wasn't anything special today.

He started off a bit nervy I thought which is unlike him, but slowly settled into the game and it was a typically composed performance. I thought he was a bit reserved in his distribution throughout though, the first thing he did every time he got the ball was look for a pass to Vidic.

He's already a quality defender, he'll go very, very far.

The fact he keeps coming in and doing well without getting a proper run in the side is most impressive, its abit easier for a winger or a striker but to slot in a solid back 4 in the middle and not look out of place is great.

Rio Ferdinand was not even mentioned. Thats enough praise for him. Evans looked totally comfortable at Champions League level football.

Seems to be one of the better products of our academy these days; was dubious until this season, but now I've seen him play in a red shirt I think he'll be here for years to come.

He was understandably a small bit nervy at times, but on the whole I thought he was pretty much excellent. Outshone Vidic imo

Vidic was feeling all nice after his birthday celebrations.

Anyone have a video of that? I thought it looked pretty cool but I didn´t see a replay of it.

Very promising player, played great today.

I feel confident when he's on the team sheet, reliable and consistent so far.

I've only seen him a handful of times. I thought he was great.

I can't believe he's 20 and playing like that

I think he is, unless I've got the lad mixed up with someone else.

Slotted in seamlessly for the best centre back in the world. Keeps on passing every test that Fergie gives him with flying colours, even when lack of match sharpness might give him an excuse not too. Unlike last season, its actually getting to the stage where I'm not unduly concerned when Vidic or Rio are ruled out.
