Patrice Evra echoes Gary Neville's "broken" Man Utd belief - "You can't lie to the fans"

Patrice Evra has echoed Gary Neville 's claim that Manchester United have a "broken" dressing room.

The pair of Red Devils legends - who, combined, boast a whopping 13 Premier League winners' medals - have slammed the current state of affairs that new manager Erik ten Hag will be tasked with remedying during his first season at the helm. Neville has reaffirmed his long-standing belief that the inner sanctum at Old Trafford is in disarray, while Evra has suggested that some members of United's dysfunctional squad joined the club for the wrong reasons.

After featuring in a legends charity match at Old Trafford on Saturday, Evra spoke to Mirror Football and lamented the contrast between how his fellow icons were hailed by Red Devils fans - even after losing 3-1 to old foes Liverpool - and the frosty reception which the current crop receive. "You see how crazy [the atmosphere] is and that's what it should be like for the first squad," the Frenchman declared post-match.
