Man Utd star Evra: Sir Alex is just like a big kid!
Manchester United fullback Patrice Evra admits he's amazed by the enthusiasm of manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
At 68, the Scot's voracious hunger for silverware remains as keen as ever and he will not swap the adrenaline rush of triumph for anything until his dying breath.
That is according to French left-back Patrice Evra, who revealed the legendary Old Trafford boss jigged into the dressing room after his side beat hated rivals City in the Carling Cup semi-final last week.
He told The Sun: "Sir Alex is a child. We saw it against Manchester City. He's so passionate.
"He was jumping up and down like a child after that game.
"You could be forgiven for thinking he'd never won a game before!
"At 70, he doesn't see himself taking it easy at home reading a book or watching TV. Personally I think that would bore him.
"I don't think he will call an end to his career. As long as he's strong he will carry on.
"He will stay until his last breath."

Was referring to Mbadex as the pointless comment, merely paraphrasing Evra and trying to make a point that didnt need making, hence, pointless.
