For an obvious non-football problem, It is unusual for an Argentine to be acclaimed in the English Premier League. It is not common, although there have been cases over the years. And slowly, despite the irregularity experienced by Manchester United, Lisandro Martínez is gaining recognition from his fans.
Arrived this season in exchange for a fortune (a figure close to € 55m for Ajax), Martínez is part of the central defense of the team led by Ten Hag, who was also his coach in the Netherlands. Lisandro started again against Everton away (Cristiano Ronaldo’s 700th goal in his career) and starred at a particular moment with his few fans.

“Argentine, Argentine”they shouted at his fans, in the middle of the Goodison Park stadium, after having made a good defensive cover, protecting the ball from the pressure of an opponent.
With 2-1, United have reached 15 points in the Premier, finishing nine points behind leaders Arsenal. On Thursday he will play at home with Omonia in the Europa League.
