Former Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has heaped praise on Lisandro Martinez, calling the new signing a "pit bull" after his recent performances.
Martinez put in another fine performance against Leicester City on Thursday night as he perfectly executed the task of keeping prolific goal scorer Jamie Vardy quiet. His partnership with Raphael Varane made United solid in defence again, as they kept their second successive clean sheet.
The 24-year-old has not only provided an element of steel to United's backline, but he has also enabled Erik ten Hag's side to transition the ball with speed, adding another dimension to the team's tactical set-up. Martinez has impressed with his work-rate and commitment to the cause, wearing his heart on his sleeve in matches.
