Evra wants some down time

(23-11-2010) Patrice Evra reckons victory over Rangers in Wednesday’s ‘Battle of Britain’ in the Champions League will mean that he and his teammates can take a night off and put their feet up. With the Red Devils facing a crunch week next month when they play Arsenal and Chelsea in the space of six days, the Frenchman believes it is crucial for the club’s top stars to get some rest ahead of those games. "We have big games coming up and want to be able to concentrate on them. So if we can get what we need and qualify, we can rest players for Valencia," said Evra on Monday. However, he acknowledges it won’t be easy. "The Scottish fans will make sure it's a great atmosphere. They make so much noise and it won't be easy for us."
