Patrice Evra reportedly blasts one United star after a costly performance against West Ham
Manchester United’s disappointing draw with West Ham United has drawn sharp criticism from club legend Patrice Evra, who openly questioned Diogo Dalot’s suitability for the team after what many saw as a costly performance. Clearly frustrated, Evra suggested the defender may not have what it takes to thrive at Old Trafford, arguing that repeated displays below the expected standard have hurt the club’s progress.
United had approached the fixture hoping to strengthen their push for European qualification, but defensive errors once again proved damaging. Dalot’s display came under particular scrutiny after moments of poor positioning and misplaced passes allowed West Ham to apply pressure and seize momentum. Analysts pointed to lapses in composure and decision-making as key factors in the dropped points.
Evra’s comments sparked debate among supporters. While some agreed that individual mistakes have repeatedly undermined the team, others insisted the issues run deeper than one player, citing tactical structure and collective responsibility.
Inside the dressing room, disappointment was evident, with senior figures reportedly calling for unity and accountability. Head coach Michael Carrick now faces the task of tightening the defence and restoring confidence as the race for European places intensifies. With crucial matches ahead, United must quickly rediscover consistency to keep their ambitions alive.
