Jonny Evans second debut branded ‘absolute disgrace’ after coming on at 1-1 before dramatic late Arsenal goals
MANCHESTER UNITED fans slammed Jonny Evans after his disastrous second club debut.
The visitor's lined up with Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof at the Emirates with Raphael Varane out injured.
But the pair both came off during the match with out of favour Harry Maguire and ageing club legend Evans replacing them when the score was 1-1.
It left fans with little confidence as United defended for a point.
One said: "Maguire and Evans partnership hold me."
Another added: "We’re actually having Maguire and Jonny Evans as our CB against Arsenal."

One joked: "Johnny Evans-Harry Maguire. What is life?
Another fumed: "Maguire and Evans partnership against Arsenal, I am speechless."
Fans fears were then realised with Evans having a nightmare.
Declan Rice scored in injury time, with his shot deflect off Evans before going past Andre Onana in goal.

Gabriel Jesus then put the cheery on top in the TENTH minute of added time to break United hearts further.
Again, Evans was involved, with the Brazilian onside by the veteran.
One fan said after the match: "I have no blame on Ten Hag. This is what United have to deal with having this ownership.
"It’s an absolute disgrace that he can’t look to the bench for Amrabat, he was forced into keeping Maguire.
"Name me one top half side that Maguire and Evans play as a partnership for."
Another added: "Jonny Evans the deflection and then playing Jesus onside first one is unfortunate but can see his match fitness really isn’t there and that’s the key problem.
"Just looked a bit lost despite his experience and had a bit of a nightmare at a key stage in the game after coming on."
Maguire's United future looked over in the summer when he was stripped of captaincy by manager Erik ten Hag.
But a move to West Ham collapsed due to his wage demands, meanwhile Evans re-joined after leaving Leicester.
