‘Ar-gen-tina, Ar-gen-tina’ has been ringing around Old Trafford again this season after Lisandro Martinez’s arrival in the summer and Alejandro Garnacho’s breakthrough.
But it’s by no means a new chant and it's one that’s been aired frequently in years gone by. The chorus boomed around the Theatre of Dreams earlier this month when fans welcomed back Martinez as a World Cup winner.
He’s been one of Erik ten Hag’s best signings and the Dutchman’s eagerness to bring The Butcher across the North Sea has been well and truly justified. Upon first landing in Manchester, Martinez gave praise to an ex-player when asked whether he followed any of his countrymen who previously played for United.
