Patrice Evra says Theo Walcott was 'probably drunk' for Arsenal comparison

Manchester United legend Patrice Evra criticised Theo Walcott after the former Arsenal winger compared Mikel Arteta’s current side to United’s 2007-08 Champions League-winning team, saying Walcott was "probably drunk" when he made the claim and adding that, "if he wasn't, then he's dangerous for society." The row followed Wayne Rooney's blunt reaction — "Yeah, we'd batter them" — and Evra insisted that the 2008 team, "led by Cristiano Ronaldo at his peak, remains untouchable." He also mocked the comparison on Stake, calling Walcott "a menace" and saying, "He should stop doing punditry, this is dangerous for the kids." Evra nevertheless refused to diminish what Arsenal are achieving this season, saying, "if they win, they're champions, that's it," and recalling his own experience: "When we won the league in 2010-11, people were saying this is the worst Sir Alex Ferguson side ever and we won the league by nine points." He also praised Bruno Fernandes' importance to United, noting that "Man United nearly lost Bruno Fernandes at the start
