It really winds me up when people get on the back of Jonny Evans, United fans did the same to Fletcher and O'Shea a few years back and look how they turned out. Evans is young, so he will make mistakes while he is learning, but you don't continually play for Manchester United if you are no good. Remember Ferguson chose to keep Evans over Pique so he must have something about him. And in fact, the last 3 games he has been very solid. Anyone knocking Evans now will look like a fool when he is Captaining the side at 30. I sometimes wonder if you people actually watch the games, or just catch a few highlights on Youtube.


WOW. Just a reminder that it wasn't a choice between Pique and Evans, Pique was homesick, wanted to play in Spain, so Fergie did the honorable thing and granted his wish.

Granted, Evans has performed well of late. And I as much as you, hope he continues to improve and play well week in and week out. As United fans, we aren't on here actively hoping one player or another stuffs up and is subsequently sold. I want Evans to do well just as much as I want any other United player to do well.
