It's a shame that Evans isn't well-liked at Bolton. He'd be the perfect partner for Zat Knight, assuming that Cahill gets sold.
agree.. that is something baffled me all the time why he think Evans is better than jones
Why the **** did SAF play evans?
Jones ahead of evans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can understand that view but to his credit he has turned things largely around well, until today!
And just out of intrest constcrepe... whose the flat flooted defender whose not mobile enough to stop Torres and then chasing him back on your open goal video... and your trying to defend him :S.
Watch the footage again. Fletcher is also close to Torres. Why not mention him?

Review of Evans in Chelsea game as featured in Daily Telegraph:
Quiet game from the Northern Ireland international, with nothing eye-catching at the back but no obvious mis-steps either.
Review of Evans in Chelsea game as featured on goal.com:
Calm and composed, he mopped up at the back and used the ball well.
Review of Evans in Chelsea game as featured on Man Utd website:
Immaculate and commanding, the consistency he's been looking for has definitely returned. An excellent tackle on Torres bailed Javier Hernandez out after a sloppy pass and one chested clearance illustrated his composure. Impressive again.
Has the guy played bad in the last 2 seasons? Yes. Has he made mistakes this season. Yes. But has he played much better this season and improved? Yes.

Mate your comedy gold..... We cant afford defenders who are going to make "less mistakes than last season"... we need world class defenders every time they pull on the red shirt... a can believe your even using that sentance their as a valid point in this debate. Get back to ya fcukin armchair.
I think a lot of people including me have jumped to a lot of conclusions about some of our players. As long as the players under fire (Evans, Anderson, Fletcher, etc) are United players then we should support them 100%.
I agree and like you have questioned some of our players none more than Gibson. Don't rate the lad and cannot see why SAF believes in him. But if a player like Gibson down the line can put in good performance and prove me wrong, then fair enough.
a northen ireland man rating evans, but not gibson, wow, what a shock there.
they're both mince.
Name me a defender in the premier league who hasn't made a mistake this season? Yes we do need world class defenders. We have only one at the moment, and that is Vidic. Also yes Evans was caught flat footed for the Torres miss. Fletcher was already running with him. Did he bother to continue the run and follow after Torres? So why not mention him?

Or ere mate im done with this argument.. ya absaloutly awful you lol.... Fernando Torres is a striker. Jonny Evans is a centre back. therefore it was his man to mark/track in the first place. Im not sayin players dont make mistakes you tool, am sayin Jonny Evans has made countless errors at vital times this season. And what an earth are you talking about.. Patrice Evra is quite clearly world class isn't he.... am not gonna reply to any more of ya comments me, ya absoulty clueless about football and clearly have not played at any sort of decent level. Cya later on bud time for bed your shattered.
. So even though Evans was responsible for marshalling the striker that day, anyone else who finds themselves in or near the back four can absolve themselves of any responsbility since its always the markers fault!! Brilliant! Sadly Evra is no longer world class as he gets older, even a blind fool can see that. Love your great argument for Torres getting through the defence. So even though Evans was responsible for marshalling the striker that day, anyone else who finds themselves in or near the back four can absolve themselves of any responsbility since its always the markers fault!!

SAF: Darren!!! What the hell happened with Torres there?
Fletcher: Sorry boss I didn't bother to track Torres since it was all Jonny's fault the the ball got by him in the first place.
SAF: Oh. Well thats all right then.
Or whatever mate....You a first class idiot :| !!!!!! If you see the ****ing replay properly and not on tht little shi**y thing yav done there... yal clearly realise its Evans man at the start of the move you absolute tool... And Evras not world class alright then (y) when did this come about then??? your a typical fickle Man Utd fan pal.. get to a few games and then come back and argue with me. AWFUL
