PATRICE EVRA enlisted the help of Bobby Charlton to tease Manchester City following their Champions League defeat.
The Manchester United heroes featured in a meme posted online by the Frenchman.
It showed Charlton looking at the European Cup he won in 1968 with Evra’s face Photoshopped onto a team-mate.
The caption read: “Sir Bobby can you check for City’s name again?
“Nope, still not here Pat…”
Evra, 40, won the 2008 trophy with a penalty shootout victory over Chelsea – United’s third Champions League crown.
It was 83-year-old Charlton who led the club to their first 40 years earlier, beating Benfica 4-1 in the Wembley final.
And Evra captioned the post: “I need it to ask Sir Bobby to check again!!! Good night everyone.”
Manchester City failed to lift their maiden Champions League crown on Saturday after a 1-0 defeat to Chelsea.
Kai Havertz scored in the first half to earn the Blues’ second title.
