Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has advised Argentine defender Lisandro Martinez to stop responding to criticisms. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he remembers previously exchanging messages with Martinez on social media, and the CB revealed that he lost all respect for him because of something he said as a pundit.
Scholes added that former MUFC players used to see criticism as a fuel to step up their game, but the current footballers prefer to reply off the pitch.
His words, “Look, we exchanged messages on Instagram quite some time ago. Yeah, he weren’t happy with something I said, I can’t remember what it was, and he just said that he lost all respect for me.
I wouldn’t have said this normally, but he’s come out and said stuff, so why not? He said he lost all kinds of respect for me. When we got stick as players, you look at it and remember it. We used it as fuel, you don’t go answering back.”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
