Look I’ve always liked Evans but if a 36 year old is getting plaudits it speaks volumes to the absolute brainwashing you’ve all had over 6 years of Lindelof

Hate is too strong as I don’t know him but strongly dislike him as a player and have never thought that he’s good enough. Now we seem to be collecting those type of playersYou really hate him don’t you.
This is true. We used to applaud SAF for managing to win things with players who were ok but not very good mixed in with the great players. Now we just have loads of average pace, average physicality, average technically, average ability, average players.Hate is too strong as I don’t know him but strongly dislike him as a player and have never thought that he’s good enough.

Can yas imagine how Johnny is feeling. His family and himself sacrificed a lot for his success. Played with the biggest pros of all pros etc. Weirdly he was sold etc And this season gets the chance to return to the club he loves and cares about and sees that the attitudes have majorily changed. Be like winning the lottery and losing your ticket

On the contrary, he probably can't believe his luck. He was heading for retirement, instead he gets paid to do very little at United.
He chose to go back to United so kinda his faultWhen we signed him I thought what the hell are we doing signing a 35 yr old has been who even relegated Leicester didn’t want. I thought he had no place at United and he wouldn’t get a game.
You know what? I was wrong. He is ace. He shows just how lacking most of our squad are, and I’ve actually done a 180 and feel sorry for Jonny. When you consider what he’s won, the teams he was part of and the players he played with he actually deserves to be playing out his twilight at a much better team than United currently are.
Gotta say, apart from his debut at arsenal when he got skinned every game he has been pretty much solid. In the context of everything might be our signing of the summer....which says a lot about the club.
I mean, he's "only" 35. Not THAT old by central defender standards. Thiago Silva is 39 and the only thing holding Chelsea's defence together. I'd imagine Evans has at least a couple more years left in him yet, used appropriately.For a player of his age, at this stage of his career, to be putting in a performance like that is just incredible.
Honestly, he should have pushed for a move once he got his confidence back at Leicester, could easily have been playing for a top club in recent years, always had the ability.
