Manchester United were forced to line up without Lisandro Martínez for the first time since Christmas Day against Everton on Monday evening due to injury.
The Argentina international was tentatively eased back into first-team action after more than nine months recovering from a cruciate ligament tear. Ruben Amorim’s reluctance to use Martínez was reportedly the subject of much frustration for the player himself before the Portuguese coach was sacked in January.
