More talk from Patrice Evra which makes you love him that little bit more.
“To play for Manchester United demands huge sacrifices,” said Evra. “This is a club of hard workers. You are there to work hard, there are no glass jewels or paste trinkets here. At United you are carrying the weight of the club’s history. You become a Red Devil when you have fully understood that. The mentality of this club is to hate defeat. In four years I have lost very few League games. To win three League titles was a real achievement. To win a fourth this season would make us legends.”
Evra then went on to hail the impact Sir Alex Ferguson has had on him during his time at United.
“I’m not saying I am better but I really believe in my own qualities as a player,” he added. “His demand for success drives him on and pushes him to the limit. He makes you aware of your responsibilities regarding the team. He trusts me. That means a lot to me. I do what he tells me to do. The day when I can no longer work that hard, I know he will have no qualms at all of dropping me from the team.”

True legend!!!
Evra, you are my little angel running up and down on your left wing!
Patrice, my friend… Have a word with Nani.
love you Pat
L E G E N D
“there are no glass jewels or paste trinkets here”. Superb, but what exactly are paste trinkets? I love Pat and if he sees out his career here he will go down as a legend. There is a great spirit and belief among the players this season to go for that 19th title.
fuckin awesome, can imagine pat in the stretty end when he retires, off the topic anyone see united 1-0 man city?? that united arab emerites.
ohh city are a massive joke, hope your enjoying yourself carlos, cunt
wish we had him as an academy player. we found a united treasure when he signed on! our trophy cabinet became full of major silverware again in his 3+ seasons at united. not a coincidence.
evra = legend
Have we got a chant for this guy?
evra’s a true red devil..I always have a big teethy grin on when i see him in the united shirt.he’s the kind of LB every left mid dreams of playing with,one of,if not the best left backs in the world as of now.
shak
this is pete boyles song for our patrice…
Patrice evras fucking brilliant
plays left back n hes worth millions
fergie may never get rid of him
good old patrice evra
Cheers ulster red.
He is world class n without a shadow of a doubt the best on in the world. Going forward or defending he’s been brilliant
no problem mate, but ive said on this site before the only thing evra could improve is his final cross into the box, he is the best at supporting the left midfield player and usualy spends more time higher up the pitch!! gets into great postions through is own awareness and skill but if only he could deliver a really good ball, it always seems to go to deep or too short, never the less i still love patrice!
Been awesome for United since arriving and the stand-out player this year, but it’s comments like this that will mark him down as a United legend, a club that a certain Mr Ronaldo would never get into…
Love the comment from Bruce Thomas BTW….
i wonder where GHTT is along side with his creative chant..cant wait to hear that..
bruce thomas : spot on mate..
Giggsy next united manager!!! Only a legend can replace another one!
fink ghtt has one something like …
to the tune postman pat,
left back pat, left back pat,
left pat with his red and white hat,
up and down the left wing,
hear the stretford end sing,
we we will cheer evry time you score
i think??
sorry if its wrong
sorry bout typo’s just finishin a 12 hour night shift, thats for keepin me sane through the long nights scot
@ bruce thomas
Second that mate….May be he can hammer some sense into him.
Love the guy…absolute legend. If he could just work on his crossing a bit more though!
Talks too much. Anyway you all love him and there is nothing i can do about it
Best left back in the world, United legend and an all round right to his soul member of the Red Army!!
Good Cricket!
In a paper I read, that pat doesnt drink Sprite / 7up anymore… he stays away of everything thats green…cos it reminds him too much of ireland who he’ll face with france this weekend
but i just love the lad, he’s amazing player!
hope Pat keeps his word and not move on if Real or Barca come calling. he must be missing Park
It could be worse, he could have to carry the weight of Alan Wylie
C’est magnifique!
why dont fletcher and evra got any songs?? these players deserve their own song!!!!! or what??!!
Ah, Evra… always coming out with the right words. We definitely need an Evra song soon!
I know how most of you feel about internationals, but it’s Evra related: I just read that he had stopped drinking Sprite – because it reminds him of Ireland. I think it was from the same interview that Scott posted in midweek. He also goes on to claim his teammates have been wearing green (on purpose) to play with his mind ahead of the playoff games.
Man, he’s riled up. He must have really dished it out when the Euros were on. They must give each other such stick – it would be great to be a fly on the wall and listen to that banter!
“The day when I can no longer work that hard, I know he will have no qualms at all of dropping me from the team.”
Speaks a lot about SAF. The Greatest Manager Ever. And speaks a lot about Evra’s professionalism too. He will work hard for himself, the club and for the Red Devil.
lol @ brett1985
“To win a fourth this season would make us legends.” Hmm, I already classified Evra as a legend. The most consistent and brilliant player so far this season.
WHEN HEINZE AND PATRICE WERE BATTLING FOR THE LEFT BACK POSISTION I WAS TRULY CONFUSED AS TO WHICH ONE WOULD COME OUT ON TOP THANKFULLY THE CREAM ROSE TO THE TOP HE IS A FANTASTIC PLAYER PROBABLY THE BEST LEFT BACK IN THE WORLD AND TO HEAR HIM COME OUT WITH COMMENTS ABOUT WHAT IT IS LIKE TO PLAY FOR UNITED
Gotta love Pat, keep it coming Evra! Been one of our best performers so far this season in my opinion.
a massive player and a great lad as well!. fast becoming our greatest ever left back! tough call between him and denis irwin but i think pat shades it. What a fuckin total legend!
Evra
Then every body else below : )
jamiemufc1974 – Hmm not sure mate it’s a tricky one. To me Denis Irwin is still United’s best ever left back. NEVER had a bad game or put a foot wrong. Pat is THE best left back in the world today though.
King Eric- Irwin used to take the pens and freekicks as well and he contributed a few goals, so I think he’s first.
Pat’s a close second to him, though.
