Overview
- Patrice Evra said on Rio Ferdinand’s podcast that Theo Walcott is a “menace for society” and “should never be on TV again.”
- He called the comparison to Manchester United’s 2008 Champions League and Premier League winners “disrespect” and labeled Arsenal fans “delusional.”
- The exchange traces back to January, when Walcott asked Wayne Rooney on an Amazon Prime broadcast to compare today’s Arsenal with United’s 2008 side.
- Rooney answered on air, “We’d batter them,” echoing the view of former teammates from that trophy‑winning United team.
- Reports tie the revived dispute to Arsenal’s recent slide, citing cup exits and a 2-1 league loss to Manchester City, and note no apology, sanctions, or response from Walcott.
