Martinez: Say it to my face then
Briefly

Martinez: Say it to my face then
"Honestly, he can say whatever he wants. I told him already, if he wants to say something to me, he can come to me wherever he wants. To my house, wherever. I don't care. I think, for me, I respect the relations when they want to help the club because everyone can talk on the television. But when you see (them) here face-to-face, no one says anything in your face."
"So I don't really care what they say. I just put the focus on my performance, the performance of the team and I give everything to this club until my last day. People always say whatever they want, it's something that I can't control. What I can only do is to show on the pitch and I think today I showed it."
"Haaland would pick Martinez up and run with him. It'll be like, you know, when you see a dad after school running down the road with a little toddler. That's what it'd be like."
Manchester United dominated Manchester City in a 2-0 win at Old Trafford, creating several more clear chances that were disallowed and hitting the woodwork twice. Gianluigi Donnarumma produced outstanding saves that helped keep the scoreline modest. Before the match, former players criticised Lisandro Martinez and suggested he would struggle against Erling Haaland. During the derby Haaland was largely anonymous and was substituted with ten minutes remaining to ironic cheers. Martinez responded by saying he does not care about critics, will focus on his and the team's performance, and will give everything to the club.
