Man Utd fullback Evra: We failed to show world what we could do in Rome

Manchester United fullback Patrice Evra admits their Champions League failure last season dominates his thoughts.

Evra said: "I'm a winner, I like to win, so I still think about what happened in Rome.

"Everybody says we did well last season and we won three trophies, but when you lose the final in the manner we did, where we didn't give a true account of ourselves, it's very frustrating.

"We didn't show people the real Manchester United and we were very upset with ourselves.

"We missed a big opportunity in Rome and that's a real shame. It killed all my dreams last year.

"When I think about last season now I don't think about winning the league or the Club World Cup or the Carling Cup.

"All I think about is losing in Rome and that's made me very determined to do well this year and make up for that."
