Patrice Evra has recalled the time when Sir Alex Ferguson yelled at the Man Utd players for not signing autographs for his fans.
The Frenchman spent nine successful years at Old Trafford while helping Man Utd win a Champions League, three League Cups and five Premier League titles.
However, not everything was easy for Evra and his colleagues at Man Utd with Ferguson quick to jump on them if you thought they were out of place.

And Evra has recalled the time when they felt the full force of their “dryer” after Red Devils players refused to sign autographs for fans.
“I give you an example, once when we were in preseason, and before we got on the bus, we were really tired, I will be honest with you, and there was a line of fans,” Evra told the Manchester United Podcast.
“And the players were saying ‘when no one signs, no one has to sign.’ So we went straight to the bus, everyone, and I look out the window and I see Sir Alex Ferguson signing each autograph.
“I swear he must have signed for about 45 minutes. He was signing [for] everybody. I say, “Guys, when the boss comes on the bus, we’re done.”
“And he came on the bus, gave us the hair dryer. ‘What the hell do you think you are? Those people are paying your salary. Those people come to see you. Now put the f ** k down there and sign. “And we had to sign every fan. But that’s the mindset.”
