Former Manchester United midfielder, Patrice Evra, has suggested that Cristiano Ronaldo, Harry Maguire, and Luke Shaw need to leave the club after they were left out of Monday night’s 2-1 win over Liverpool.
United manager, Erik ten Hag, left out the three players after consecutive losses against Brighton and Brentford.
And Evra, who played over 370 times for United, believes that Ten Hag deserves major credit for the bold decision, that was rewarded with a 2-1 win.
Speaking in his role as a Betfair ambassador, Evra said: “When you win against Liverpool you get the fans on your side, and that will be a big boost for him. Now, Ten Hag will have to make decisions about the team and not think about individuality.
“I’m convinced that the starting eleven made a big difference in that win. If we started with the same players that started against Brighton and Brentford we would have definitely lost. I think Ten Hag was selfish and he was thinking about himself, he would have been saying ‘I don’t want to lose my job and I should get rid of really important players and make changes,’ and he did.”
