Patrice Evra joked that Chelsea star Cole Palmer ‘let Manchester United down’ by joining Manchester City.

The 20-year-old came through Manchester City’s youth system before joining Chelsea in a £42.5 million move.

Despite growing up as a Manchester United fan and originating from Red hotspot Wythenshawe.

The winger has ha a fantastic start to life at Stamford Bridge, and he extended his excellent form with a fantastic goal against Manchester United on Wednesday.

After United’s 2-1 victory over the Blues, Evra quipped that he needed to talk to Palmer’s parents about his decision to join City.

Palmer scored against his old team.

‘I don’t believe it’s a good time,’ Evra joked.

‘I believe he let us down!’ I need to speak with his parents!

‘He grew up a Manchester United supporter, and you end up playing for City and scoring a goal against United? He can’t be a true fan.’

Palmer has been one of Chelsea’s few bright spots this season.

The Blues were beaten 2-1 at Old Trafford, a game that United might and should have won by a much larger margin.
