Patrice Evra gushes over Celtic atmosphere as viral video shows bath time ode to Parkhead 'goosebumps'

Patrice Evra has ranked Celtic Park as the greatest atmosphere he ever experience in the Champions League.

The former defender has represented Manchester United and Juventus, playing in some of the most famous stadiums in the world.

But the ex France captain reckons Parkhead has them all beaten, as he revealed in a Q&A session from his bath.

Evra told joe.co.uk: "I will go for Celtic.

"I remember Celtic, they are the one. 'You'll Never Walk Alone', when they sing that song I remember I even got some goosebumps.

"Wow... Celtic."

Evra faced Celtic in 2006, coming off the bench in a 1-0 loss to Gordon Strachan's side.

The 39-year-old also revealed the toughest opponent he's ever faced, and gave what might be a surprising answer.

He said: "It's difficult, because he's not the best player I've played against - I would say Cristiano Ronaldo, I could mention Messi - but it's James Milner.

"He frustrated me when I played against him, following me everywhere on the pitch.

"Even when I went to the toilet - or in my bath!"
