While at Old Trafford the Reds Devils fans have recognised the great work of Lisandro Martinez this season, earning him the nickname "The Butcher" for his ability to cut out opposition moves, outside of Manchester United, former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has criticised the performances of the Argentine international, who in his view does not have the potential to be a Premier League player.

Although the defensive skills of a player are not the main attraction or for which the Premier League stands out, it is true that having good references in that area of the field make an English team one of the most complete in the top competitions in Europe, and Manchester United with Lisandro Martinez, has earned that defensive security, but for a former player who knows the position and especially football in England, sees the Argentine with few qualities when Erik ten Hag plan to go with a line of 4. "In a back four, Lisandro Martinez cannot play there in the Premier League".

All the performances of Martinez in United have started from a defensive base formed by 4 players, occupying the Argentine along with Victor Lindelof and sometimes with Harry Maguire the central, working this player in an excellent way as the latter area, applauding the English his great work of sacrifice every time he sees some intervention in the game, a situation that does not support at all the statements of the former Liverpool man.

Recently the former Reds defender has been too hard on Premier League players who have occupied his position for years, because even if the central defender with the Argentina national team does not have all the experience that Jamie Carragher had as a Liverpool player, Lisandro has proved to be at the height of a major club in England such as Manchester United.

Carragher criticised Lisandro Martínez

Perhaps the poor start to the season that Manchester United had meant that their players did not stand out as they should, something similar to what is still happening at Liverpool and in the same sector of the pitch, because although Virgil van Dijk gave an incredible performance in central defence, sometimes the collective mistakes or those of some of his teammates end up making him complicit in a bad performance.
