Martinez and Scholes Clash Over United Criticism

A public dispute has erupted between Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez and former player Paul Scholes, with Scholes criticizing Martinez as not being capable of contributing to a Premier League-winning team. Scholes' comments came amid a broader critique of Manchester United's squad, suggesting several players, including Martinez, should be sold. Martinez, sidelined with an ACL injury, responded on social media, implying that Scholes wouldn't withstand the rigors of Argentine football. Scholes has a history of critiquing United players, previously labeling another player, Antony, as a 'clown' for showboating. Scholes' remarks have sparked reactions from multiple players, including Neal Maupay. The tension highlights ongoing scrutiny and challenges at Manchester United as the club struggles for form in the Premier League.
