Soyuncu for one was always better when playing with Evans Maybe we should do it with Liam Moore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even here, prior to that crunch game against Man U for a Champions League spot, where we conspired to not turn up and gave Jesse Lingard a free goal, in the build up to it Jonny popped up on a Man U YouTube podcast chatting to them about his time there and all things Man U. I've never heard of that happening with any other player. He seemed to completely lose interest here. Started out great. See if he finds regular fitness now then, eh. In the end he seemed to get injured alot for us and remarkably became fit for NI. It seems like his loyalties always were with them and NI. And to think he was our captain. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolhandfox Posted 18 July 2023 Share Posted 18 July 2023 100% he will be fit if he get a chance for a game at Utd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROB-THE-BLUE Posted 18 July 2023 Share Posted 18 July 2023 Heard lots of stories about Evans being an absolute hypochondriac. Any little niggle and he'll instantly declare himself unfit. Better off without that kind of liability now. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bovril Posted 18 July 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 18 July 2023 Thought he was an excellent player for us for a couple of years. Classy player.

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 18 July 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 18 July 2023 I can't see why we'd still want him given we've got Coady and Doyle in but if he doesn't get a PL or similar move then I hope we tell him to bollocks if he gets in touch. Cannot underestimate how much we needed his perceived leadership and he was absolutely nowhere. Mug 11 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volpeazzurro Posted 19 July 2023 Share Posted 19 July 2023 Bet he'll make a stunning recovery like Lazarus from the grave to play for them. Reminiscent of suddenly being fit for his national side before being injured again. Spooky eh? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally one of his old managers said he had to trick Evans into playing him by telling him he wouldn't be in the squad all week! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instrumental in getting us relegated because he wasnt interested in fighting for the club.

But when he played this season (e.g United at home where he was most responsible for keeping the score down) I thought he looked comfortably our best defender. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bovril Posted 19 July 2023 Share Posted 19 July 2023 We ended 21/22 season well thanks in a large part to Evans and Fofana at the back. You can question their commitment to the cause obviously but they were head and shoulders above our absolute clown show of centre back pairings this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyalty was to NI and BR before the club that paid him. Zero leadership from a senior player. What annoyed me more is we have Wes working as an ambassador doing guided tours and Huth making sure the loan players have their lunches packed and rent paid when they could’ve been called upon to fix the obvious issues.

Popular Post Sol thewall Bamba Posted 19 July 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 19 July 2023 Apparently our offer "still stands" even after him signing somewhere else. Where is our self respect as a club? Why are we so soft that we're still offering hand outs to players that obviously don't want to be here? Boggles the mind. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
