Manchester United fans are begging for Jonny Evans to \u201cstart every week\u201d after his marvellous assist against Burnley.<\/p>\n
Evans made his first start for United since 2015 on Saturday due to Erik ten Hag\u2019s injury crisis in defence. The 35-year-old, who rejoined the side in the summer after being released by Leicester, was thrusted into the line-up following the absences of Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw and Raphael Varane – who was only fit enough to make the bench.<\/p>\n
But Evans quickly proved his many doubters wrong with an all-action performance. He scored a dream headed goal in the first-half, which was ruled out for offside.<\/p>\n

The Northern Irishman, alongside a solid defensive performance, then played a sumptuous long ball for Bruno Fernandes\u2019 stunning volley immediately after half-time. Roaming the centre circle, Evans used his weaker left foot to find his captain, who broke the deadlock in style.<\/p>\n
United fans were left stunned at the centre-back\u2019s all-round display. And it wasn\u2019t long before they took to social media, urging that he keeps his spot as a starter under Erik ten Hag.<\/p>\n

Evans' last start for United came on March 4, 2015 – a 1-0 win away at Newcastle in which Ashley Young scored an 89th-minute winner. He was initially signed on a short-term deal in pre-season but quickly impressed with his leadership, positive influence around the camp, earning him a one-year deal.<\/p>\n
