ā€˜No more excuses for this guyā€™: Man United fans criticize Lisandro Martinez for his poor defending, calling for better performances from the Argentine star šŸ˜”šŸ”“

Lisandro MartĆ­nez, often praised for his tenacity and technical skills, found himself at the center of fan criticism following Manchester Unitedā€™s challenging first half against Newcastle. His involvementā€”or lack thereofā€”in the conceded goals left supporters voicing their frustrations across social media platforms.

 

On the first goal, MartĆ­nez was criticized for watching Alexander Isak rise unchallenged to score a powerful header.On the second goal, he lost an aerial duel against Joelinton, which directly contributed to the team conceding.

Fans didnā€™t hold back:

@AmorimEra_ questioned his starting position: ā€œLisandro MartĆ­nez shouldnā€™t be starting in this team anymore.ā€@AndrewKatsigair likened his performance to a passive spectator: ā€œI am out of excuses for this boy.ā€Others like @UTDTrey labeled him ā€œoverrated,ā€ while @htomufc described his showing as ā€œpathetic.ā€

MartĆ­nez, nicknamed ā€œThe Butcher,ā€ has earned acclaim for his combative style, but moments like these amplify scrutiny, especially when the team struggles. Balancing criticism and patience remains crucial as players aim to rediscover their form amidst adversity.
