Erik ten Hag is delighted with the start Lisandro Martinez has made at Manchester United and, in particular, the physicality he has brought to their defensive line.
The Argentine started on the opening day in a defeat to Brighton and was hooked at half-time during the 4-0 thrashing at Brentford, but responded in style with a starring performance against Liverpool on Monday night.
Martinez, 24, partnered Raphael Varane in the heart of the United defence and played a key role in securing the three points with his bullish approach against the Liverpool frontline.
