Jonny Evans

[Simoken]

I cant believe Man Utd sold him.. MASSIVE mistake. Really gives you a glimpse at how much of a shambles that club has become.

[Lionheart10]

Got to be one of the best ever bargain buys along with Vardy & Mahrez.

Van gaal decided he wasn't good enough

He was injured in most of those games he didn’t start, which I suppose in an inconvenient truth.

He wasn't, check through those 15 games he didn't start. How many of them was he not in the squad for? I think it's less than half a dozen. It took a while for him to bed in to this team, and injuries probably didn't help but it certainly felt he was having to bide his time to break up Maguire/Morgan partnership.

Like him

Cool head and good positioning makes up for his lack of pace.

I would include Huth in that also.

A bit unnecessary?   

[HighPeakFox]

Back on topic, I think we look a better team with Evans in it. 

[Vardinio'sCat]

 

Imho it is Evans +1 next season when he is fit, or +2 in a back 3.

 

According to the Mockery, played in 28 games with 11 clean sheets. Without him, 15 games with 2 clean sheets.

Also worth remembering that Evans was our best CB while playing almost all of his games on his less preferred side in order to accommodate Maguire.

He's incredible, so much so i'm still not sure if he's left or right footed as he is seemingly plays out from the back with minimal fuss with either. Proper defender, hope he can keep it up for a few more years as we really do have that calming influence to put alongside Benkovic or Soyuncu should Maguire be picked off by the elite.

@murphy -  Don't worry, I can handle a wee bit of grief on a football forum  And I'm sure @Buce is a real charmer in real life, unlike the stuff he posts on here.

To defend @Buce, his contribution to one particular non - footballing thread tells you much more about him.

I think that Buce is pretty sound really, despite being a fully paid up member of the Tooting Popular Front.  

 

One of the better posters on here, like yourself.

[SemperEadem]

I had my doubts but after a slow start he has been excellent. He made my player of the season vote.

[Ted Maul]

He's our best centre back- Man United allowed him to leave and are now considering spending £70m on our second-best centre back. Madness.

[copunk]

Love him, best CB by a mile this season, just a shame age wise we wont see that many years from him as he would go down as one of our greats

[mod hero]

This bloke is an unsung hero.

 

Soyuncu, Vardy, Maddison getting all the plaudits and rightly so, but this guy just oozes class. £3m as well? It’s absolutely laughable we got him for that.

 

Worst thing LVG did at Man Utd was selling him.

Albrighton ???????????

[kyleolly]

When United bought Harry I said to their fans he’s not our best defender Evans is it’s no coincidence that whoever plays with him they look quality 

[smitha]

Head in hands moment when he went down injured today, he is that important to us, cannot believe some people questioned him after a couple of games.

[SheppyFox]

The best thing for me is we’ve bought him and he’s probably going to end his career here, less likely to lose a player like Evans at this stage than if Soyuncu has a really good season or two. 

[Guest ttfn]

We’ve not had a player as consistent as this since the title winning season.

 

He puts in an 8/10 virtually every week.
