A statement from Manchester United last week read: ‘Manchester United can confirm that Lisandro Martinez suffered an injury to his cruciate ligament in Sunday’s game against Crystal Palace.
Scholes does not see many positives in the heart of Manchester United’s defence, not even convinced by teenage prospect Leny Yoro, although he would give him more time to prove himself, while axing other defenders, especially De Ligt.
Lisandro Martinez has hit back at criticism from Manchester United legend Paul Scholes, saying the former midfielder ‘wouldn’t survive’ in Argentina.
Some of those players were predictable, with the likes of already loaned-out Antony and Marcus Rashford included, but more surprisingly Scholes suggested getting rid of Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt.
Martinez is set to be sidelined for the rest of this season and likely some of the next campaign as well after the serious knee injury he picked up against Crystal Palace.
