In an interview with Soccer AM, Patrice Evra said ”Before the end of that season Ed told me: 'Patrice Evra, you're going to stay for another year because we've got an option in your contract. But I told him I can’t because of family reasons. He shook my hand and said he said ‘Yes, of course. I understand. You’ve been a great servant for the club, we’re going to really miss you - and we won’t sign your option.” Do you think the Glazers must take charge and sack under-fire Ed Woodward?
