The complicated situation of Raphaël Varane, who has disappeared from the radar on the Manchester United side, seriously worries and annoys Patrice Evra.
But what is happening to Raphaël Varane? The 2018 world champion has completely disappeared from the radar at Manchester United, where Erik ten Hag no longer has any confidence in him. It was from the sidelines that the French defender attended the matches against Everton, Galatasaray and Newcastle, before being completely excluded from the group for the Chelsea reception on Wednesday evening in Premier League.
A choice that certainly paid off since the Red Devils won (2-1), with Luke Shaw who had to leave his left lane to help out in the center after the exit of Victor Lindelöf, but who questions across the Channel. Consultant on the Prime Video channel in England, Patrice Evra did not hide his incomprehension regarding the situation of the former Madrilenian. “There is something wrong”blurted “Uncle Pat”.
“There is something wrong”
“Luke Shaw, no matter how good or bad he plays, I don’t want to see him in central defense. He is a left backhe cursed. When you play for a club like Manchester United and have defenders like Lindelof, Maguire, Varane, and you still have to use Luke Shaw in central defense, there is something wrong. I played in central defense in some matches for United, but in an emergency. »
In other words, when no other specialist in the position was suitable. However, Raphaël Varane is, a priori, not injured. “I take no credit for Luke Shaw when he plays in central defense because he was fantastic against Newcastle, added the former left back of the Blues. But you have a four-time Champions League winner and he’s not in the team…” Support that will undoubtedly warm the heart of the person concerned.
