When I hear people say Patrice never had someone to fight him for his place, I think they have bad memories. They forget very quickly how I got to become Manchester United's left-back. I fought with two great players in Gabriel Heinze and Mikael Silvestre.

Patrice Evra

It doesn't matter who we play against, whether it is Barcelona or another big team: when you are Man United, you do not have an excuse. You have to win.

Patrice Evra

You Win Who

If you are ready to play, you have to give everything. No excuses.

Patrice Evra

You Very Uses

You have to fear the wounded animal.

Patrice Evra

Fear You Wounded

I live in the present because the past is regret, and the future is anxiety.

Patrice Evra

Future Use Us

When you are nervous, then you can rush things, and you don't do things as well as you'd like.

Patrice Evra

You Well Us

It does not matter if I'm Man of the Match.

Patrice Evra

T Matter Matt

I qualify myself like a bottle of wine - the more I get older, the more it tastes sweet!

Patrice Evra

Wine Win Tastes

For me, Arsenal is a football training centre. You watch the match, you enjoy it, but are you going to win a title afterwards? That's what people remember.

Patrice Evra

War You Win

A derby is a derby. When you play a derby, it is for winning, not just to play.

Patrice Evra

You Winning Win

I remember, in my first interview after I arrived in Manchester, I said, 'I didn't come here to play in the Champions League - I have come to win it.'

Patrice Evra

Win View T

Haters will always hate.

Patrice Evra

Will Ways Way

I am at the top of the pyramid, but I am not stupid, and I realise that one small step could see me fall down very quickly.

Patrice Evra

Very Up Top

You have to win the title with a strong team and a strong defence, but I don't only like to talk about the four defenders and the goalkeeper when you concede goals. It's about the team.

Patrice Evra

You Wit Win

If you play a bad game, you can't say it was because you were injured.

Patrice Evra

You Were Use

I was only a 17-year-old lad when I played for Marsala, and while I didn't play much at Monza, that is where I met my agents, who are like brothers to me.

Patrice Evra

Age Year Who

Football is like a pyramid. It is easy to reach the top of the pyramid, but to stay there is the hardest part.

Patrice Evra

Art Top T

A lot of people are jealous about Man United, so they just keep criticising, even when they win.

Patrice Evra

Win Us United

A lot of people know Sir Alex Ferguson was the heart of Manchester United. He is a legend.

Patrice Evra

Art Us United

It was really difficult for me to leave Manchester United. I left for a personal choice.

Patrice Evra

United Unite Unit

When you play for Manchester United, any year you don't win the title, you feel like you haven't done your job.

Patrice Evra

Your You Year

I can play against a player like Messi; I don't fear anybody. I just play my game.

Patrice Evra

People can call me arrogant, but why should I lie? Of course I feel strong, and of course I am proud as well.

Patrice Evra

Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney are both outstanding players.

Patrice Evra

The most important thing is believing in yourself.

Patrice Evra

I'd always thought Australia was a rugby country, but football is really developing here, and Juve are extremely popular.

Patrice Evra

Manchester United never die.

Patrice Evra

The FA Cup means so much, and one day, I hope I will win it.

Patrice Evra

When you play for Juventus, there is a lot of responsibility. You have to have personality more than just talent.

Patrice Evra

I don't have to prepare any differently because it's Messi, because every day in training I am up against people like Rooney, Berbatov, Ronaldo, and Tevez, so you know what to do against big players.

Patrice Evra

You bear the weight of the club's history on your shoulders, and you only become a true Red Devil once you understand this.

Patrice Evra

When you start to work out during your holidays, you know you've got the motivation. When I stop working hard during my holidays and getting excited before the beginning of the season, that's when I'll know it's time to call it quits.

Patrice Evra

When Manchester United play with the right spirit, nobody can beat us.

Patrice Evra

The minute Juventus came calling, I knew it was the right choice for me. They have the same winning mentality as me.

Patrice Evra

Playing for Manchester United demands huge sacrifices. It is a club for workers, and we are there to slog our guts out. There is no bling and sequins about the place.

Patrice Evra

When I hear people say Patrice never had someone to fight him for his place, I think they have bad memories. They forget very quickly how I got to become Manchester United's left-back. I fought with two great players in Gabriel Heinze and Mikael Silvestre.

Patrice Evra

I'm very close to Sir Alex and have a lot of respect for him, and a lot of respect for myself.

Patrice Evra

I've always believed that when you play for Juve, the goal at the start of the year is to win the title and a lot of trophies.

Patrice Evra

For as long as I am still motivated, I will keep putting my boots on and not pinning them up.

Patrice Evra

Everyone thinks if they have a problem, the first thing they want to do is play football and enjoy themselves.

Patrice Evra

I think the French teams sometimes doubt themselves. They play some beautiful games but, when it comes down to it, do not go through.

Patrice Evra

The Champions League is the biggest trophy. Everybody in the world wants to win it.

Patrice Evra

Wazza, when he plays behind the striker, he is very dangerous because he has more touches of the ball, and Wazza can create the goal as well and can score.

Patrice Evra

The only thing is against Messi you can stop him 10 times, but if he passes you once and scores, people say, 'Evra played a poor game.'

Patrice Evra

The only person who takes the full responsibility why I leave Man United is myself. I am the one to make the choice.

Patrice Evra

I have never hidden my love of Paris, even though Monaco is still 'my' team.

Patrice Evra

In football, you can't always succeed.

Patrice Evra

It doesn't matter if you go somewhere and you're still winning - it's always the wrong decision to leave a club like Manchester United.

Patrice Evra

Some might say friendlies are unimportant, but we always try to win because we then maintain that positive mentality when the real competitions start.

Patrice Evra

In life, you always have a second chance.

Patrice Evra

The Australian players are getting better.
