EVANS STRIVES FOR CONSISTENCY Jonny Evans is enjoying starting regularly for the Reds as he regains the consistency that all top centre-backs require. The Northern Ireland international has had some battles with Chelsea in the past and has stood up to the physical threat of the likes of Didier Drogba. Clearly, the defender's form going into the match means it's difficult for the manager to leave him out. "I feel a lot better," stressed Evans to ManUtd.com. "I feel more focused and that's something I need to be all the time, 100 percent focused, to get the best out of me. I think last season it was more just a lack of consistency. At times, I thought I did well and other times I didn't do as well as I'd like. So my consistency is just needed back in my game. It was one of the strongest points I had in the three seasons before. There's things I've worked on and I just wanted to get that back." The big games are starting to come thick and fast now the international break is over and the centre-back realises Chelsea will be stern opponents on Sunday. "It's quite crazy that people are writing Chelsea off. Last season, Chelsea were winning 4-0 or 5-0 every game at the start of the season, kind of like we are doing ourselves, but we still went on to win it so we can't discount them at all."
