I saw a big change happening at Manchester United, especially in the player Lisandro Martinez, the arrival of this player seemed to show again the quality of Manchester United's defense. This one player is not only strong in blocking the ball in the penalty box area, but also tough when winning duels in the air. This season the Manchester United players have almost completely developed from before, although Harry Maguire has not been able to show promising quality, but in the match against West Ham United he is getting better, despite several defeats and losing concentration.
The arrival of Martinez in the Manchester United squad this season has indeed brought a new color to the game. His duet with Varane is very promising even though they still have gaps for opponents to take advantage of. But it was better than our disorganized form last season, with even David de Gea frustrated by their defender's poor performance.
At the beginning of Martinez's arrival, many questioned why he had to be among the many players, yes, those doubts were because many saw Martinez's body posture which was considered not ideal to be a central defender. But now he has been able to prove that Manchester United was not wrong to sign him.
Lisandro Martinez is a good defender and I think sometimes he is not given enough credit for his performance.
A reason for that might be because his performance is not very flashy or very different from the Orthodox defense. He likes to link up with the other players on the team and maximize the possibility of keeping things under control.
I have to say something. If being physically perfect was the way to be a better player Lionel Messi wouldn't have been able to be even a good player. The way Martinez has played it was impressive. Yes, I also agree that Manchester United did not make a mistake by signing him
