Evra not happy when Man Utd rest him

Patrice Evra admits that he was upset that Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson decided to rest him for the 2-1 win at Sunderland. "The boss gave me a rest at Sunderland recently and I was angry because I want to play in every match for United," the Frenchman told the Daily Star.

"When I retire, maybe I'll look back at the games I missed. I don't play in all our matches but usually at the back it's me, Edwin Van der Sar, Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic who play when we are fit."
