Patrice Evra got wet. In an interview given to ESPN UKthe former French international full-back showed himself to be particularly confident in imagining a duel against Lamine Yamal. According to the ex-Manchester United and Juventus player, he would have largely dominated the FC Barcelona winger in his prime:: “I would have eaten Lamine Yamal raw in a one-on-one duel! I’m sorry, Lamine, I love you but…”assured the ex-Mancunian, three times member of the standard team of the season in the Premier League between 2007 and 2010.
The former 2018 world champion took responsibility for his cash speech by recalling his state of mind on the pitch: “ask Cristiano, ask Messi, ask other players when they faced me, I’m not a good friend”he added. A daring outing which relaunched the debate between the football of the 2000s and that of today.
