Just pass it back without a fuss like everyone else.

Yeah but if no one was showing for a pass then who is he passing it to without a fuss?

Also he wasn't the only player to do it yesterday, i would expect every player to do it if the rest of the team are not making themselves available to receive the ball.

How the feck that can be twisted into a criticism i don't know.
 
First thing in the transfer window we need to get rid of this waste of space. He gets injured too much and even when he's fit, he does a lot of silly mistakes. He's 27 now.

If you watch our defenders play they pass back and sideways if they can't find a forward man readily. It is a pattern that happens time and time again in every game we play. Evans is the only one who looks terrified every time he can't find someone and is getting pressed.

Watch for yourself next time he plays for, if he ever does again that is. I am out on this point.

Honestly that is one of the dumbest criticisms I've ever heard. Next thing he'll be criticized for trying to talk to the other players.

Agreed.

So instead of trying to be positive and urging his team mates to make themselves available for a forward pass he should just pass it back to the keeper.

I am almost positive he was getting vilified for taking the easy option and passing it back too much before his suspension. I guess his biggest crime now in the eyes of a lot of fans is being Jonny Evans damned if he does and damned if he doesn't it seems.

I wonder which player will be turned on next and constantly criticized if/when Evans does leave the club.

Nah i think that already happened a few months back mate when the same set of numpties criticized him one week for not showing enough leadership and the next week ripped into him for bullying the younger defenders by telling them what to do.

So basically any vague criticism that pops into their heads in any given week.

:lol: I remember that. Apparently he is too shite to tell other players what to do.
 
Watched the game again and apart from the moment with Zaha he seemed fine to me.
He was fine, no way anyone can argue otherwise. Peoples opinions just get in the way and the want to believe what wasn't there.

I hope we've seen the last of him.
 
The usual Evans apologists out in force again I see.

He's garbage lads and he won't be wearing the shirt next season. Let it go.
