Former Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has praised Argentina fullback Lisandro Martinez.

"Lisandro Martinez is one of the best signings we've had in recent years. He has a fighting spirit. This is what United fans want to see - these players should be bleeding for the club's shirt.

People talked about his height and I laughed. Some fans also said that I was too short when I arrived in the Premier League. When you play with such heart and passion, height doesn't matter.

Martinez was calm and composed with the ball. Mexico pressed everywhere, but every time he got the ball he was calm and played forward. That's what I love," Vibe with Five quoted Evra as saying.
