Live from Old Trafford – Manchester United legend Patrice Evra has launched a blistering attack on a current Red Devils player following their shocking 2-0 defeat to Crystal Palace.
The loss, which has sent shockwaves through the fanbase, was yet another lackluster performance from United, but one player, in particular, bore the brunt of Evra’s frustration.
In a fiery post-match rant, the former United captain and five-time Premier League winner didn’t hold back:
“I CAN’T TAKE THIS ANYMORE! He’s a liability every time he’s on the pitch! Mistake after mistake, costing us points, killing our momentum—it’s embarrassing! How is he still playing?
How many more games do we have to suffer because of him? This club deserves better, the fans deserve better! I NEVER want to see him in our shirt again. Enough is ENOUGH!”
While Evra stopped short of naming the player outright, fans and pundits quickly speculated that his fury was aimed at a struggling United star who has been under fire for repeated costly errors this season.
United’s Season Spiraling Downward
The 2-0 loss at Old Trafford added to a turbulent campaign for Erik ten Hag’s side.
Crystal Palace, well-organized and clinical, capitalized on United’s defensive lapses, with goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta and Eberechi Eze sealing a deserved victory for the visitors.
United, meanwhile, looked sluggish, uninspired, and devoid of attacking ideas—an all-too-familiar sight for frustrated supporters.
The team’s persistent defensive frailties were once again on display, prompting Evra’s furious response.
“Should Retire” – Evra Demands Ruthless Changes
Evra didn’t just call for the player to be benched—he went even further, suggesting it was time for him to retire altogether.
“Some players need to be honest with themselves. If you keep making the same mistakes, you have to ask, ‘Am I still good enough to play at this level?’
For me, it’s clear—some of these guys should RETIRE. I don’t care about excuses, I care about standards. This is MANCHESTER UNITED. We need warriors, not liabilities!”
His words are likely to ignite debate among fans, many of whom have already called for major squad changes.
With United’s defensive struggles becoming a recurring theme, patience is running out among both club legends and supporters.
What’s Next for Manchester United?
With pressure mounting on Erik ten Hag, questions are being raised about whether he will continue to stand by underperforming players.
United face a crucial run of fixtures, and without drastic changes, their chances of securing Champions League football next season could be in serious jeopardy.
Evra’s emotional outburst has only intensified the scrutiny. Fans are demanding accountability, and if his words are anything to go by, the time for sentimentality at Old Trafford is over.
Will Ten Hag finally take decisive action? Or will United continue to suffer from the same costly mistakes? One thing is clear—Patrice Evra, like many fans, has reached his breaking point.
