The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 national team captain praise the young defender and says that the criticism that Johnny Evans had taken in the past was unjustified and that he has been fantastic this season in the English Premier League....
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rio-Ferdinand-c31173 has come out in defence of this defensive partner Johnny Evans in his latest remarks to the press after Manchester United’s 2-1 win over Liverpool in the English Premier League. In a match that was characterized by
the feud between Suarez and Evra, it was the Frenchman’s team which gained all three points in the end as Wayne Rooney struck twice to keep Manchester United in the Premier League title race.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c39043 striker after the half way mark in the match and then held on for a nervous finish following Suarez’s scrappy goal at the other end.
It was Rooney who was praised by pundits in their post-match reviews but Johnny Evans put in a fantastic performance as well to contain the likes of Suarez and Gerrard in the Liverpool attack along with Andy Carroll in the second
half. Evans has been criticized in the past for giving away needless fouls and penalties but this season, the young northern Irish centre back has been at the top of his game.
Ferdinand who played alongside Evans against Liverpool said, "Jonny was fantastic. A lot of the stuff that has been said about Jonny is way off the mark. He is appreciated by everyone in the squad." The Manchester United veteran
also praised http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 lad and an Evertonian. To score against not only our rivals but those of his boyhood team, it must have gone down well for him.”
Manchester United will hope that both Evans and Rooney can maintain their form heading into the dying stages of the English Premier League as United still trail Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table with Tottenham
in third, in close attendance as well.
