I think he’s my favourite current United player. It’s like they took all the good things about Daley Blind, and combined that with all the good things about Marcos Rojo.

In Argentina more and more people are making pressure for Scaloni to start him along with Romero at the WC.

Otamendi with the NT plays very well though.
You think he has a chance of starting ?

From what I've seen in the prem so far I rate Martinez as better than Romero and Otamendi but as someone who watches Argentina more than me are Otamendi and Romero better than Martinez ?

Imagine that fan in the crowd. He’s got a picture for life now. If that’s not his Lock Screen on his phone for the rest of his life, he needs to rethink his life.
Martinez has attained that level of legendary status already?!

absolutely love him.

his passing through the lines and quick use of the ball is so great to watch.

his positioning and timing is spot on. I was a bit nervous at the start but now I can see why ETH was so desperate to get him. future captain for sure.

If he continues playing like he's played until now, he'll be our player of the year by a mile.

He's equally important in both offense and defense.

Argentinians are just a different breed aren’t they. This lad’s completely off his nut and I love it.

I’d personally like to thank Timber for staying at Ajax and in particular LVG for discouraging it also
It's like some invisible power is taking care of United this season. Timber didn't want you? I give you this Argentinian warrior. FDJ didn't want you? I bless you with this chubby monster.

I think it’s pretty difficult, at least in the important marches. The team is consolidated, they’re pretty solid tbh. There’s no doubt Martinez’s era will start after the WC, as I believe this will be Otamendis last dance. Romero + Martínez is a world class defense at the back.
But many people are demanding for Licha to start.

91 pages on Martinez. Amazing.
Props to the posters that called how great he’d be for us on page 1.
Some of the Dutch/Ajax fan posters were trying to tell us this as soon as he was signed. Not many listened. :wenger:

I’m fairly certain that after one season, Martinez will be deemed the best CB currently at the club. I’m 100% certain no one will ever say he’s slow by then
Only maybe in his first season when played in the midfield did he ever look off the pace. Other than he's the most consistent performer we have, and it's always at least a 7
Martinez will be fine in ETH's system. I'm very happy with this signing and am fully convinced he will perform well.
Wonderful signing.
sad to see him leave. Hope he'll do very well for United. Been a class player for us, true warrior. Good luck Licha!
Martinez has all the qualities to be a future United and Argentina captain.. Really impressive player with a very wide variety of defensive and footballing qualities.. But his mentality sets him apart I think.. He will be a fan favourite in no time.. Im very very positive about that...
Props to all of these folks for being bang on the money.

I don't about that fan but it certainly goes on my phone.

Love the way he’s so calm on the ball and can pass through players into midfield. This is exactly the quality we need at the back. Great player… where’s all the haters who was criticising him before he even kicked the ball because of his height? (Carragher, souness)

Was also too slow and weak for the Prem.

There’s so much to appreciate about this guy. Both his defensive work and great passing are top notch. Unbelievable mentality, he levels up our defence massively.

Just goes to show that pundits know absolutely nothing. They need to learn to keep there mouths shut until a new signing as actually settled in a played some games. Always seems to be our signings that get criticised though. Did anyone criticise Liverpool spending 100m on Nunez?

As much as I love this guy... I still believe he has been lying about his height. I think he's closer to 170cm than 175cm. Compare him to the other short guys like Fred and Antony out on the pitch. Hmmm...!

It really hit me last night. We actually have likeable players In our team. First time in a long long time it’s felt that way with a manager to boot. :devil:

Most of them really don't, most posters on here know more. It is just background noise.
