Shamelessly stolen from Reddit:

"Before the 1st leg, I made a motivational video for the United players. Then I had PSG fans saying 'What is this ****** doing', 'You need to get behind French clubs in Europe', 'You forgot to take your anti-depressants?', etc. Then PSG win the match 2-0, and massive respect to the PSG away fans in that game. After the match I posted a picture with me lifting the CL."

"3 weeks ago I made a post on Instagram telling PSG fans to watch out for the remontada, since you are big experts on that topic. PSG fans were telling me that I was such a moron, and that United aren't anywhere near as good as Barça was. BAF! I was in visionary mode!"

"The whole match there was a well-dressed guy in a suit, sitting behind me and Paul, yelling "IÇI C'EST PARIS!" and constantly looking at me. I didn't say anything until the game finished, when I recorded a video in which me and Paul were yelling "IÇI C'EST MANCHESTER!" as revenge."

"French press thinks I'm an enemy of the state for rooting against PSG. Yellow jacket protests? My fault. PSG's elimination? My fault. The French press is too focused on my celebrations, but I don't care."

"For the kids born after the iPhone X that can't understand the greatness of my career, I will do a little summary... but the haters will probably keep lying about me to the new generations. For you to decide if it's a shit career...

2001-2002 OGC NICE: Promoted to Ligue 1, Voted best LB of Ligue 2.

2002-2006 AS MONACO FC: 1 Coupe de la Ligue, Voted Best Young French Player, 4 times in a row voted best LB of Ligue 1, Champions League Finalist, Voted 2nd best defender in Europe and I was in l’Équipe's Team of the Year.

2006-2013 MANCHESTER UNITED. 5x Champions of England, 1x Champions League, 3x Champions League finalist, CWC champion, 4x League Cup, 5x Community Shield, Voted 4 times best LB of the PL, Voted best LB in the world.

2013-2016 JUVENTUS: 2x Scudetti, 2x Coppa Italia, 1x Supercoppa Italia, 1x Champions League finalist.

2016-2018 OLYMPIQUE de MARSEILLE : When I came, the club was 12th I believe. Finished 5th, Qualification for Europa League. Played in all group games before my 'incident'...my teammates went to the final.

ÉQUIPE de FRANCE Quarter-Finals 2014 World Cup, Euro 2016 Finalist 81 caps.

2018-2019 WEST HAM: Stayed in the Premier League.

Total: 21

2019: To be continued... don’t be jealous I just wanna share "

Jérôme Rothen (ex-PSG player & pundit):

"You're in the presidential box at Parc-des-Princes, how dare you celebrate like that in front of the PSG fans? Go celebrate like that in the United dressing room. Respect the people at the stadium, don't jump with joy and disrespect the people who pay to go to these games. Paul Pogba? No problem, he's a United player so he can celebrate. But you Patrice? He's my friend, been a while since I talked to him, but fecking hell, you cannot do that!"

Evra's response:

"I was told Jérôme said some nasty things about me. I didn't believe it but then I was shown the video. You son of a leaky condom...oops, sorry Mr. Rothen. I really like your father too, look at what you made me do. You really are mad, aren't you my little blonde? Your reward, next time I see you, I'm going to slap you in the face. These aren't empty threats, you know we'll see each other eventually. We ate from the same plate, we played together. I had to dribble everyone, even the goalie, so that you could cross the ball back when we played together, and now you talk like this? Not you...you forget so soon. You were always a salty prick. I remember when L'Equipe gave you a rating of 5 and our other teammates got 7, since you were so paranoid of the ratings, you would call the journalist and ask "Why did you give me a 7??!?" Piece of sh...I will stay polite. Stop telling bullshit, stop telling lies. Be careful, because we will cross roads eventually. I'm sure we will."

Love Pat. Why on earth should he be cheering PSG just because he's French. I have alot of friends who are staunch PSG fans who always support the opposition if Marseille, Bordeaux etc are playing in Europe. He's one of our former players so its only natural that he's behind us. Plus I'm glad he trolled the guy who was having a go at him all game.

Is the presidential box for special Paris supporters only or something?

Evra got so personal :lol:

The part where he says he had to basically dribble the goalkeeper for Rothen to make his crosses is so true.

I'll always hope that Uncle Pat never changes :lol:,the man truly bleeds United red through and through.

Qatari $aint Germain and all their fans can go do one for trying to censor a United legend in the aftermath of one of the most memorable European nights in the clubs history

I mean no offence if there is any French here but this is no surprise with the French reacting like that they are the one who for example want to ban the terms mother and father.

Has this guy had a go at Louis Saha, who also celebrated United winning and is French. Cantona? Was he supposed to cheer on PSG as well?

“You son of a leaky condom” will now be used on a daily basis by me. Thanks Paddy.

I love him more than Cantona. Seriously, the man does ‘unhinged French legend’ so well. Absolute nutcase, but our nutcase. Well in Pat :devil:

I would absolutely go to war with Evra, what a guy. Please can we hire him in some capacity, he's brilliant. We should make him our official French correspondent. Send him to all the games in France and tap up players for us, he did us a favour with Pogba after all!

Personally I love all the bitterness, thrive on it. The more piss we boil the closer we are to returning to the world stage as a true huge club. Back where we belong.
