'He wouldn't survive' - Lisandro Martinez fires back at 'jinx guy' Paul Scholes after Man Utd legend's 'not good enough to win Premier League' jibe

Premier League

Manchester United

Ipswich

<p>Speaking on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhLxEyKwox8" target="_blank"><em>The Overlap Fan Debate</em></a>, Scholes claimed: "Even when he's fit he [Martinez] is not good enough to win the Premier League." That has prompted an angry reaction from Martinez on Instagram.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Scholes' dig at Martinez is not the first time he has voiced his displeasure at his former club's defensive options. Speaking last month, he claimed Lenny Yoro is "the one centre-half I would keep" if United are to become "a team to win the Premier League".</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>As per <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-14386191/Lisandro-Martinez-Paul-Scholes-Man-United-legend-Premier-League.html" target="_blank"><em>The Daily Mail</em></a>, Martinez fired back at Scholes on Instagram as he wrote: "This jinx guy is really hurting...You put him in Argentina and he wouldn't survive."</p>

WHAT MARTINEZ SAID

<p>Martinez recently suffered an ACL injury that is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/lisandro-martinez-season-is-over-man-utd-confirm-acl-injury-ruben-amorim/blt4fe8abede6be14e9" target="_blank">set to keep him out for the rest of this season</a>, the latest in a succession of fitness problems that have disrupted his time at Old Trafford. United are currently stuck in the bottom half of the Premier League, though they still have the Europa League and FA Cup to play for.</p>
