The moment he trolled Suarez with the hand 
The Patrice Evra Appreciation Thread
- Thread starter FC Ronaldo
- Start date
That could easily be passed on as a post of these days with minor tweaks on players' names
Isn't it too early to say that ? Evra was a true United player after well into his second or third season. It's really early for most in the current team. And the older ones definitely get it including schweini
Afaik because his wife wanted a change in scenery and because we apparently made him sign an extension without his will (not our fault imo. We had an option to extend for a year and we rightly exercised it) but he didn't want to play a back up role to Shaw.
Hope you are joking. Rio was abysmal for QPR last year. A Rio in his prime I would take without a question though.
What a fecking player! The word legend gets bandied around a bit too easily, and he probably didn't quite perform at that level long enough to be called it, but his passion and skill were just incredible. Where can we find another one?
Absolutely loved the club to bits and we felt the same towards him. Can't think of a single player outside of Basti that plays with his desire / passion for us currently. Miss him so much.
He was the best in the world for three seasons, and even after that when he started falling away a bit he was still right up there amongst the best for quite a few more seasons. Combined with his attitude, a definite legend.
Other than Alves, I don't think I've ever seen a fullback so consistently dominate his entire side of the field from goal line to goal line. At his peak he owned the entire left side of the field almost every match.
A fecking brilliant player on his day, and a credit to the club nonetheless when off it. Should absolutely be made a club ambassador when he retires; the picture above is more evidence of him being a prime example of a player from abroad who "gets" the club.
United need more players like him.
Miss him and sad to see him play for Juve when he should be here..

Spooky. This is word for word what I came to write.
Was weird wasn't it. Like the time Rooney decided to be the best aerial threat in the world for 6 months after Ronaldo left
The work he does on the left flank was absolutely incredible. We are really lacking a fullback like him at the moment.
So a few of us in the Mourinho thread are now in agreement, he should be our next Assistant Manager. Player / Assistant capacity available also. Either way, Mourinho's ex-player assistant guy.
How can anyone not want this? Let's start the movement Caftards!

Mourinho, are you listening?

Yes!
You know that there's no way he'd sit on his arse for an entire game watching it go by. He'd be yelling at the players, antagonising the other side. He'd be brilliant.
I don't think I've ever seen a player love a club with such affinity that isn't his hometown club or the one he came through as a youth.
Ole, although showed it in different ways.
Has he even done his coaching badges?
I had never even considered it before but now that I have it must happen.
I don't know about an assistant but he should definitely be some sort of DVD carrying Bez.
Eric, Ole and Paddy are the holy trio of foreign players who seemed to treat playing for Utd as if they were lifelong fans. They all formed a bond with the fans every bit as strong as local guys like Scholes and Giggs.
Paddy though, what a player. He seems a total madman, in a good way. Total and utter legend

Couldn't care less. Love Evra!
Honestly never had such a personal affection for a united player. Absolutely loved him he was and is a legend. The way he spoke about the club was just unbelievable and showed that even though he was not from here he understood he had become a part of the greatest story in football
The word 'legend' is bandied about as often as the word 'bandied' is bandied about when discussing legends but...Patrice=legend.
So weird people calling for him to be our assistant manager yet give Giggsy such grief.
Such a dedicated player. Even in a Juvenile shirt you can see the red devil still resides in him.
Him and vidic taught me never to judge a player early and likewise I will give some time for Memphis to grow.

Always loved him, totally dedicated to United, I hope he returns in some capacity. He totally got the ethos and history of the club. Not many players in our team can say that today.
Having said that, he got quite a bit of stick on here in those last couple of seasons....just read back!

Gotta love the man. Good memories.
Get them on a planino. Bring them back from Torino.
Is that Pogba?

"It maybe early yet but Evra may be out of Man Utd faster than Djemba Djemba or Tiabi. He's shit from what I've seen. What are the scouts playing at recommending a bloke like this. 5 Mil for what?
Fergie and his staff have lost it. I hope the other defender is worth his fee."
Ha! from the match thread of Evras first game. To be fair most were sympathetic to it being a debut in a tough derby game.

That's the truth! Both had an awful debut as I recall, against City I believe. We gt hammered like 5-0 or something, I think.
I miss Evra. 
He would have been brilliant at cheering our dressing room up through the bad times.

His Instagram is gold.
