Former Manchester United and Juventus left-back, Patrice Evra played with a number of great players during his career and he recently picked his ultimate XI of team-mates. Here, as per Dailymail, we take a look at his side.
4. GK - Edwin van der Sar
One of the greatest goalkeepers in the history of the sport and for Manchester United, Van der Sar played alongside Evra for five-and-a-half seasons, during which they won four Premier League and two UEFA Champions League titles.
The Dutchman made a total of 266 appearances for the Red Devils while also racking up 130 games for national country, Netherlands.
3. DF - Dani Alves, Rio Ferdinand, Giorgio Chiellini, Patrice Evra
Evra choose to go with Dani Alves in the right-back position despite playing alongside another legend in Gary Neville during his time at Old Trafford. The centre-backs are split between two legends, Giorgio Chiellini and the now retired Rio Ferdinand.
The Frenchman not surprisingly picked himself in the left-back role.
2. CM - Park Ji-Sung, Paul Scholes, Andrea Pirlo, Ryan Giggs
The Frenchman has three legends in Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs and Andrea Pirlo in his midfield and this is a strong one possessing creativity, skill and pace, not to forget winning mentality.
The one surprise is South Korea's, Park Ji-Sung who did make the list with Evra rating him very highly, calling him a "soldier".
1. FW - Cristiano Ronaldo, Carlos Tevez
A forward line that would scare any defender, Cristiano Ronaldo already had been at Old Trafford for two-and-a-half years before he joined and he witnessed first hand how the Portugese went on to become arguably the "Best Player in the World".
While he also played with Wayne Rooney, the Frenchman went with Carlos Tevez who he labelled as a "warrior".
