Love united...hate silvestre

Arsenal at OT in 05/06 he put in the best LB performance I have ever seen, destroyed their right hand side, up and down and put a peach of a cross on Rooney's right foot for the opening goal, Evra as good as he is has very rarely delivered a dangerous cross in his whole time for Utd.

Alien headed goldfish attention span freak he may be but for a long time he was our Alien headed goldfish attention span freak and had some very memorable moments, double against Liverpool, head butt at Arsenal in the 4-2.

Still hope he plays against us though.

Agreed. The headbutt on that little mincer was superb

And then made his debut at Anfield, and with one of his first touches forced an OG from Carragher(or was it Matteo?)

Wasn't that the game where Carra got two?

Yep, further delving into my memory envisions it, the deafening silence after the second OG

Also marked the debut of the one and only Taibi, think he got Man of the match despite making an absolute hash of a cross that lead to Hyypia scoring, signs of things to come.

He also turned them down to join us...

A very erratic footballer but has won a good deal with us over the years.
