Evra: The difference between United and City

Patrice Evra has pointed out the main difference between Manchester United and Manchester City (apart from one being a hugely successful club with fans all over the world and the other being the world’s biggest practical joke).

The French left back believes United will be looking to edge closer to winning a trophy tomorrow night, whereas bitter rivals City will be more focused on beating us.

“We know the City people are talking about this game,” he said.

“But we are playing it to go one more step closer to winning the cup, maybe they are playing it to beat us. That is the difference between the two clubs.

“For us it is not just about beating Manchester City.

“Yes, it is an important game but Manchester United play a lot of big games.”

Evra also thinks the 4-3 derby win in September was the best atmosphere he’d ever experienced at Old Trafford, even better than against Barcelona.

“People always ask me what is the best atmosphere I have ever experienced at Old Trafford,” he said.

“Before it was Barcelona and the game against Roma.

“But when we beat City 4-3 it was crazy. Everyone was on the pitch at the end, the noise was incredible.

“More importantly, City had been doing well. But when they lost that game against us they started to struggle.

“If we win this match it might affect them again.”
