Patrice Evra: 'Our hunger is back'

Evra: 'Our hunger is back'

Manchester United full-back Patrice Evra has said that his side have rediscovered their hunger to win games following a recent run of good form.

United have slowly turned around a disappointing start to the campaign, with yesterday's 1-0 victory over Norwich City at Carrow Road moving them into sixth place in the Premier League table.

"It's a massive win. Norwich played very well and they should have scored a few goals in the first half, but I think the lads deserve plenty of credit," Evra told MUTV. "It's never easy to play two games on the road like that, but the most important thing is the three points.

"I'm just looking at the present. The team is now playing better, we have that winning mentality and United spirit which was missing at the start of the season.

"I can see that our hunger has come back, so I'm confident, but I don't want to talk about the title. I just want to talk about the next game, Tottenham at home. We need to make sure that we win, and that we keep the momentum going."

United's run has seen them notch four straight wins over the Christmas period.
