Raphael Varane a ‘top, top transfer’ for Man Utd as club legend Patrice Evra compares £34m signing to Rio Ferdinand

Raphael Varane a ‘top, top transfer’ for Man Utd as club legend Patrice Evra compares £34m signing to Rio Ferdinand

PATRICE EVRA believes that Raphael Varane is a ‘top, top signing’ for Manchester United.

And he also reckons that the central defender is like his old Red Devils team-mate Rio Ferdinand.

Evra, 40, played alongside Varane in the French national team for three years between 2013 and 2016.

And the new £34m Man United signing left an extremely positive impression.

Speaking to The Athletic, Evra said: “Varane reminds me of Rio Ferdinand.

“Great with the ball, great in the air. He’s the complete centre-back.

“I remember his first game with the French national team and I was so impressed.

“He was so young yet so good with the ball, so fast and his anticipation was perfect.

“He’s calm with the ball and he can score too. It’s a top, top signing for Manchester United.”

Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is also excited to work with ‘proven winner’ Varane – who said his goodbyes at Real Madrid’s Valdebebas training complex yesterday.

The Norwegian, 49, said: “Of course, I’m very happy that we’ve managed to get a deal with Real Madrid – he’s a proven winner and a player we have followed for many years.

“I know Sir Alex came close to signing him so this time we’ve got him at the other end of his career.

“He’s proved over his whole career what a good person and professional he is – and he’s won what there is to win.”

Politicians are wrong about what the public want

So the, out of touch political elite are trying to say that the public would be happy to cough up an extra £2000 a year, per household to prop up the NHS?  Advertisers website Wrong! While many British families struggle to make ends meet, the political elite thinks that people will be glad to fund a failing business that is being run into the ground because of their failed policies on how the NHS is managed? No. This just shows that we have monkeys running our country! Many people on Facebook have shared the above post on various pages; a large number of those people don't even do politics. If our political elite were more than just yes men weighed down by the chains of political correctness, they would see that the people of Britain have had enough.  Ever increasing taxation to try and fix their mistakes?  Continuiosly using the NHS as a stick to beat the opposition or a classic party political paper dragon!

Federal Suit Hits Soros for $10 Billion for ‘Political Meddling, Motivated Solely by Malice’

Billionaire globalist and altogether controversial figure, George Soros, is now the subject of a $10 billion lawsuit accusing him of being a “racketeer billionaire” for meddling in the affairs of a sovereign African nation — purely for personal reasons — in what critics say typifies his modus operandi. See what others are saying about Soros and who he is in the comments section below. FOX News reports the 86-year-old financier and manager of a global network of nonprofits will be forced by BSG Resources’ lawsuit to answer for manipulating the politics and economics of Guinea for his own benefit Despite Soros’ often contentious dealings and reputation as a pompous busybody, the filing in New York Federal Court has thus far largely escaped the spotlight. Soros, who controls a web of international nonprofits in addition to his vast financial empire, used his sway with the government of Guinea to freeze Israeli company BSG Resources out of the West African nation’s lucrative iron ore mini
