Manchester United left back Patrice Evra has given
an insight into the banter that goes on behind closed
doors at Old Trafford.
The French international says boss Sir Alex Ferguson
ribbed im constantly after Scotland beat France last year.
"When France lost to Scotland, Sir Alex Ferguson spent
the whole week singing La Marseillaise at me," revealed
Evra. "My locker then got tagged with 'Kiss My Scottish
Arse'! But I didn't say anything. I waited.
He also says Wayne Rooney has jumped on the bandwagon
now and wanted to play on his wing against France tonight
just so he could tackle him.
"Recently, it's got a little spicy over this France-England match.
"Wayne Rooney told me: 'I'm gonna ask to play down your flank
if you get picked, Pat. Just so that I can tackle you.' That's the
English spirit - no presents!"
Evra has paid tribute to the fans attitudes during his initial 6
months at the club where he wasn't playing well, but was still
clapped onto the pitch.
He added: "My first six months here, they didn't get to see the
real Evra. Despite that, every time I came on the pitch, I got
applause. That gave me strength.
"Now things are much better and now I'm kind of the team DJ.
I bring in new tunes and I create special mixes.
