last year statistic : Tackles: Evra 2,8 Baines 1.7 per game  
                     interceptions: Evra 1,4 Baines 2
                         clearances: Evra 4,6 Baines 2,3
                                 goals: Evra 0    Baines 4
                                assist: Evra 4    Baines 2
     The lack of defensive cover Baines will have could leave him exposed defensively and may be too large a step up for him. Baines is a good left back but anything over £8 million, especially considering Jordi Alba was £11 million would be a huge amount of money. In an ideal world, United would be able to find a cheaper alternative abroad but left-backs are in short supply which could necessitate a move for Baines, especially now Fabio has been loaned to QPR.

Patrice Evra trumps Leighton Baines’ in almost every defensive statistic. He made 39 more tackles, 101 more clearances and recovered the ball 35 more times than Baines as well as having 40 more successful aerial duels.

Alba was sold for 14 million

I hope if United buy him, Everton receives a good fee. If any club needed it, it would be them.
