Only ones I could find. Where did you get yours (if you don't mind me asking)?Completely different to the stats I saw. See above. Was looking at his last few seasons. Not sure why you chose the ones you did.
Nice. So let's hear it, what's stupid about my posts in here?Getsme is here again, surprise surprise!

Smalling gave Ings the best chance of the match from 5 yards out. That should have been the equalizer.Smalling >>> Evans vs Burnley. For the goal Smalling was at least trying to get to the ball - Evans was marking no one on the penalty spot will his man was also in behind. And Smalling single-handedly stopped them scoring an equaliser on at least 4 separate occsassions 2nd half when it was 2-1, and was our best defender overall despite his first half.
You are 100% correct.I understand the crowds frustration with us moving backwards and sideways, I share it but I really didn't like them getting on his back the few times he went back to De Gea. I mean, he had to go get the ball, facing his own goal, absolutely no options on and even if he wanted to turn and pick a forward pass, Sunderland are pushing up on the backs of those options, nothing wrong with keeping the ball in that situation.
I expect an avalanche of abuse coming his way but I think he has done his job fine.
Im with you on this. Evans had a fine half.I understand the crowds frustration with us moving backwards and sideways, I share it but I really didn't like them getting on his back the few times he went back to De Gea.

Yea, as much as I dislike watching Jonny nowadays, it's pretty fecking rich to single him out when it's pretty clear that it's the instruction from our coach to play it as safe as it gets in defence.I understand the crowds frustration with us moving backwards and sideways, I share it but I really didn't like them getting on his back the few times he went back to De Gea.

I agree with this, it was still funny to hear all the groans when he made that back to DDG.I understand the crowds frustration with us moving backwards and sideways, I share it but I really didn't like them getting on his back the few times he went back to De Gea.

He really didn't though.Im with you on this. Evans had a fine half.
Totally agree with you he has been one of our better players in the first half. The way he neutralized both players in the 2 vs 1 situation was really good.I understand the crowds frustration with us moving backwards and sideways, I share it but I really didn't like them getting on his back the few times he went back to De Gea.

Oh jeez. We didnt concede any goals and he didnt feck up considerably, certainly no more than anyone else. In a game like this, there are actual issues/players to pick on before Evans.He really didn't though.
There were not plenty a player around him making themselves available for a safe pass, to be fair.I don't think the crowd are getting on Evans back specifically, I think they're just pissed off that within 5 seconds of having a corner, we've got the ball back to De Gea. Which is true, it's ridiculous.
Couldn't hear jeering and booing when Falcao and ADM lost the ball setting up counters which put us in danger and both of them have been ten times more wank than our special Jonny.He really didn't though.
I agree with this, and I can understand the frustration.I don't think the crowd are getting on Evans back specifically, I think they're just pissed off that within 5 seconds of having a corner, we've got the ball back to De Gea. Which is true, it's ridiculous.
I now what you mean but they should know how it comes across to the players themselves.I don't think the crowd are getting on Evans back specifically, I think they're just pissed off that within 5 seconds of having a corner, we've got the ball back to De Gea. Which is true, it's ridiculous.
He's not supposed to though. His performance in that half was (at best) what you'd expect as standard from a defender.Oh jeez. We didnt concede any goals and he didnt feck up considerably, certainly no more than anyone else. In a game like this, there are actual issues/players to pick on before Evans.
Exactly, why? Why have we played it back to Evans and not given him an option to go forward? Frustrating.There were not plenty a player around him making themselves available for a safe pass, to be fair.
All our leaders left last summer and we have no else in this team after Rooney went off.Captain??? oh dear
Yep, I really doubt the crowd are booing Evans they are booing the fact that we had a corner and the ball ended up a few seconds later with our keeper.I agree with this, and I can understand the frustration.
fecking hellLet me say this, Smalling has shown great responsibility and courage since Van Gaal has arrived, these are the kind of qualities which define leadership, the same can not be said for Evans has has shown nothing of the sort and giving him that reward of wearing the arm band is pretty sad really.
There was at least Blind, Smalling and Rojo who were more deserving of holding the captains arm band today, when rooney went off.
Evans played ok and only made one real mistake when he was so deep playing defoe on side which resulted in a dangerous attack. But the point remains - a leader he is not.
Should really be celebrating the victory but that just annoyed me.
