Evra Questions Varane's Exclusion from Starting Line-up

Former Manchester United star Patrice Evra has expressed his belief that "something is wrong" with Raphael Varane. The French centre-back has been absent from the Red Devils' starting line-up since their Champions League victory against Copenhagen in October.

Unusual Team Selections Puzzle Evra

Evra finds it puzzling that manager Erik ten Hag has chosen to leave out Varane in recent matches, opting instead for Luke Shaw at centre-back alongside Harry Maguire. The former full-back argues that players like Lindelof and Varane should be preferred choices over Shaw in their natural positions.

Concerns Over Shaw's Positional Change

Evra raises concerns over the potential injury risks of deploying Shaw as a centre-back. He believes that the young left-back's movements and positioning are different from those of a centre-back, making him more vulnerable to getting injured. Evra expresses relief that Shaw has returned to his regular position, which he believes will bring more balance to the team.

Varane's Champions League Experience Goes Unutilized

The four-time Champions League winner has been left out of the team despite his impressive track record. Evra questions the reasoning behind Varane's omission and suggests that there must be a serious reason for it.

Evra concludes by acknowledging Shaw's commendable performance as a centre-back against Newcastle, but emphasizes the importance of utilizing a player with Varane's experience and expertise.
