Fantasy Premier League

Evra banned for Chelsea attack

Fri Dec 05 08:54PM

Manchester United's Patrice Evra (R) trains on his own ahead of his sides Champions League tie against Celtic - Monday October 20, 12:26 PM

Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has been banned for four matches and fined £15,000 after the FA ruled he attacked Chelsea groundsman Sam Bethell at Stamford Bridge last season...

Evra will miss Premier League matches against Stoke and Middlesbrough, the FA Cup tie against Southampton and the Carling Cup semi-final.

---

The Stoke game is Boxing Day so don't rush to sell (or buy) just yet. But certainly something to keep in the back of your mind. O'Shea is currently a very attractive 6.34.

Rafael da Silva or G.Neville?

I was thinking the same. Both played this week vs. Blackburn, did they not? A full 90 mins?? Perhaps O'Shea gets the nod... He left at the 66th min for Evra.
Tough call, but I'd have to bet between O'Shea or da Silva... leaning O'Shea. Anyone else care to dive in??

fabio is injured and there is no way o shea plays right back ,he is the only cover for evre so fergie cant risk him getting injured with evres 5 game ban coming up.my bet is o shea will not see any pitch time

(5) Good point. Then again, they are looking to get into first place. Tough call. But good point.

What do you guys think about Evra this week against a manager-less Sunderland? Kidding.

rafael is the best. He WILL be a great players. & he's twin brother (injured) is rated as better than him, but i didn't see enough. The other guys aren't top team players (o'shea & brown). I will not say the same about Mr Gary Neville 4 respect, but I do think his best times are gone. It happens. Evra is a good player. Not the greatest full back, but certainly a good one.

I think Brown and O'Shea are top team ment. They are simply w/one of the most powerful teams on Earth. So many top team men (Fletcher included. Ditto Park.).
