Its nothing to do with coming back at your peak level though is it, just come back competent enough to pass the ball to the next defender, that would be good enough no?Just because he's the most experienced doesn't mean he can't lose his confidence. Even the Worlds best suffer from a lose of confidence from time to time, as for taking 5 or 6 games to come back from an injury, very few and I mean only a handful of players have the ability to go straight back into a team at their peak level.
Do I think Evans will be our number 1 CB in a couple of years? No, is he as bad as some are making out? Hell no. Is he the best we've got? I'd say yes, obviously he's in a lull at the moment but he will come good.
Like I've said before I actually like or liked Evans but right now we are in a dog fight to try and get back to the top, and we don't exactly have a lot of time. Like some have said he has till the end of the season to save his United career IMO, if he doesn't at least show some form, why should he stay at the expense of someone like McNair providing McNair continues to show some promise over the course of the season?
Just look at Rio now, sometimes people just dont get back to that level, we can't be waiting all day and a season is long enough to wait.
