PATRICE EVRA MANCHESTER UNITED
An attackminded left back, Manchester United's Patrice Evra is a converted striker who may yet become a big star for France.
The Senegalese born player was originally on the books of Paris St. Germain but moved to Italy's lower divisions in search of consistent playing time.
He returned to France's 2nd division with OGC Nice before signing with AS Monaco in the summer of 2002. The young player gave his coaches no choice but to play him and responded with a succcessful couple of seasons, helping Monaco reach the Champions League final in 2004.
Found himself on the outside looking at 2005 wore on and was happy to sign with Manchester United in early 2006. After taking time to adapt to the physical, fast paced of the English game, he's flouished with some very good displays for United.
