We have to guess?
10, 5, 1, ...3?, 6?, what "for" what?
Credit to Aditya _red for creating the video for Pat, it must have been amazing to get the telephone call.One of my favourite United players ever, an absolute legend! Watch the video made in his tribute, it's excellent.
Cared enough to post in here.have to say, I was never the "boy fan" so many in the Caf are... so really don't care
Fantastic video. I love Luke but what a mistake letting Pat go. What an f-ing legend. I was looking for a clean link to post this but I'm glad someone beat me to it. We need his kind of passion for the game and more importantly, for the club.One of my favourite United players ever, an absolute legend! Watch the video made in his tribute, it's excellent.
Great player and would love to have a prime-version of him now. For some reason, I find him really annoying though (I know, I know...) However, the difference between him and Lingard is that Evra had the quality to play LB for any team; Lingard is nowhere near good enough for us. I fully expect an angry barrage due to this post
He was comfortably the best in the world for two or three years, then up there for another couple after that.I genuinely thought he'd already retired.
Anyway what a player... was one of the best left backs in the world for a time.
Both post idiotic things on social media.Why are you comparing Lingard with Evra? Bit strange really. Also, what has Lingard got to do with Pat retiring? I didn’t know Lingard was a left back? Football. Bloody hell.
Do you see Cantona as an idiot as well?Both post idiotic things on social media.
not really, but that video with the egg was unsettling.Do you see Cantona as an idiot as well?
Well, there is your answer. Extravagant characters, mad geniuses, but gave their bodies and life for our club when on the pitch. How can you compare them with Lingard is beyond me.not really, but that video with the egg was unsettling.

What a waste of a reply!have to say, I was never the "boy fan" so many in the Caf are... so really don't care
Not really - why do you say that?You must have trouble sleeping at night.
The point is simply that off-field antics, if harmless, are easy to ignore if the player produces the goods. Not sure why you are having trouble grasping that.Well, there is your answer.

Evra even said in the interview with Neville that he sacrificed his family to be 1000% committed to United. Referenced the famous "United, kids, wife" banner to showcase what it really means the represent this club.
Because your focusing your arguments based around social media and what players do off the football pitch. Lingard gets vilified on here and I think it’s wrong. Stop singling out one player and get behind our current crop of players for the up and coming season.Not really - why do you say that?
If he produces the goods on the pitch, much like Evra did, then he can post duets with Rashy every day for all I’ll care. Sadly that hasn’t been the case thus far.Because your focusing your arguments based around social media and what players do off the football pitch.

He was betterVery consistent, top quality player and second only to Ashley Cole in that position.
There was very little between them, but Cole was the one who was consistently put in the World 11 team of that era by those in the game and the media. Cole dealt so easily with C Ronaldo as well! Anyway, i think we both agree they are both leagues ahead of the current Utd and Chelsea left backs!He was better
and yours is so inspiringWhat a waste of a reply!
That's because for some players, off-field antics are just a pastime and they're fully commited to football. For other players it's the other way around.The point is simply that off-field antics, if harmless, are easy to ignore if the player produces the goods.

No that was pretty much my point - one produces the goods (hence I don’t care about his antics); the other doesn’t (I still don’t really care about his antics, annoying though they might be.)That's because for some players, off-field antics are just a pastime and they're fully commited to football.

Evra is the former and Lingard is the latter, hence why your comparison doesn't stand.
