Evra vs Heinze: The final word

Manchester United
by nastra100 (U6681410) 29 November 2006
comment on the article

I think until there is a change in form we need Evra for our crucial games Heinze has been a week link against copenhagen, southend, Celtic and he cost us the goal against Chelsea. Evra on the other hand defends well and gets forward to score like gaz neville i think its case closed unless there is a drastick change in form.

well im always worried when we rest players, it worked out ok last night but woont all the time. id prob play a strong team, giggs instead of ronaldo as he needs a rest and he will want to give it his all against benfica.saha should be back starting as well as scholes. Back four will be strong, so id go for this team v boro..

The premiership is our priority, so if we were to rest players it would be against benfica to help the title charge going

Heinze and Evra are both great players, if were playing a good attacking team, id go heinze as he's a better defender, evra against teams who are going to put 11 men behind tha ball, like liverpoo, ha ha ha how bad are they!!!

I don't think sir alex will rest any players against boro on sat, he can't afford to, we got beat 4-1 there last season! I think the reason he played o'shea, flecher, silvestre, brown last night, was just incase we need to call on them for the benfica game!

What score do you think it will be next weds, mr benfica?

When Giggs is playing left, Evra is the better option - he can assist Giggs in the attack and since Giggs tracks back, Evra gets a bit of assistance in defending.

However when Ronaldo plays left, United becomes vunerable defensively for Ronaldo does not track back so Heinze is the better option.

Depends on how Boro approach the game, lone striker...

They may rush Downing back... don't think that'll change Man U's approach. Man U could probably bring their entire squad including Ole and Park Ji Sung at the mo.

For once I agree with icevor...

A key question hangs over Giggs! What is going on there will have a knock on effect on which left sided defender plays!

went to old trafford for the first time yesterday - What a letdown!!!

Huge crowd but hardly any singing...

Utd will not win the league - they had about 3 chances against Everton and took them but the Toffees deserved a draw with a weakened team

Plus while Chelsea have the likes of Robben and J Cole waiting in the wings, Utd's strength and depth relies on the appaling Richardson, the crocked Solskjaer and Smith and the talentless Darren Fletcher

Chelsea will have it wrapped up by Easter
