Man Utd fan on .com delivers an appraisal of Jonny Evans:
"I think you're getting an excellent player and in a sense I'm very disappointed to see him go. On form, he's still the best defender we have. There was a time when we set the record for clean-sheets that he was arguably our best defender. He's an excellent passer and very good reader of the game. I think he'll do very well.
For the last 18 months for us, his confidence has been shot to pieces. He would be just returning to form and either get an injury setback or suspended. The spitting with Cisse was the final straw with LVG. He was actually coming back to form before that as well.
All-in-all, you're getting an excellent defender for a decent price. We are offloading a player who has been a great servant but is no longer in the managers plans. I really like Jonny and hope he does well for you guys."
