Man Utd fans convinced Jonny Evans is FIRST CHOICE centre-back as they spot huge flaw in Ten Hag’s Varane defence

MANCHESTER UNITED fans have been left convinced that Jonny Evans is now the club’s first choice centre-back after Erik ten Hag’s latest press conference.

As reported by SunSport, Raphael Varane has been left “stunned” by his position in the Manchester United pecking order after seemingly dropping down to fourth choice.

Varane was dropped for the Manchester derby in favour of Harry Maguire and Jonny Evans and has not started a game since then when the duo have been fit.

SunSport understands that Varane has vowed to remain “focused” for the remainder of the season, despite the uncertainty surrounding his future. 

But ten Hag’s latest response when asked about Varane will not fill the World Cup winner with any confidence.

When asked about a rift between him and Varane, ten Hag said: “I don’t know what you’re talking about.

“It’s just rumours but there is internal competition. When you have to decide between two players who are brilliant – Varane and Harry Maguire – then you have to make a choice.”

Fans pointed out that if ten Hag is deciding between Varane and Maguire for one spot, then that would make the 35-year-old Evans the first choice centre-half.

Evans was only ever signed by United to provide cover for the club at centre-back but now appears to be the cornerstone of ten Hag’s defence.

Fans were left perplexed by ten Hag’s response in the press conference, with one posting on X: “Meaning Evans is unstoppable??”

Unfortunately for ten Hag, Evans is ruled out of Sunday’s trip to Everton.

Meaning it is likely that United fans will see Maguire partnered by Varane for the trip to Goodison.

In better news, Luke Shaw is now fit again and expected to play a role on Sunday.
