Lisandro Martinez has shared his powerful verdict on what he saw from watching Manchester United play under iconic former Red Devils manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
Sir Alex Ferguson is widely regarded as one of the best managers of all time and the 84-year-old Scotsman oversaw incredible success at Old Trafford.
Can you name the FOUR Man Utd players to have 10+ league assists in a season since Sir Alex retired?
The legendary former Manchester United manager led the Red Devils to all 13 of their Premier League titles before he called it time on his remarkable career.
Ferguson ushered in a period of dominance over English football with the Red Devils and United were a force to be reckoned with during his prolific reign at the club.
The Scot led United to their famous treble win in the 1998-99 season and lifted the Champions League trophy again with the Red Devils in the 2007-08 campaign.
Lisandro Martinez’s spine-tingling reaction to what he saw from Man Utd under Sir Alex Ferguson
Manchester United have struggled to climb back to the top of English football since Sir Alex Ferguson stepped down as Red Devils manager back in 2013.
More than a decade has passed since Man Utd’s last Premier League title in the 2012-13 campaign and the Red Devils have endured a tough transitional period.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe has been eager to see United once again assert their dominance over teams like Liverpool and Manchester City since the arrival of the Ineos regime.
Can you recall the player who scored two goals for Man Utd, including in Sir Alex Ferguson’s final match?
Speaking to TNT Sports, Lisandro Martinez admitted that he was completely captivated by how Man Utd would perform under Ferguson’s approach.
“This club, for me, is really, really special,” he told TNT Sports pundit Owen Hargreaves, as per Manchester United’s official website.
“I watched all the games in the [Sir] Alex Ferguson era and wow, it was like history.”
Lisandro Martinez on bringing back the Sir Alex Ferguson effect at Man Utd after the Red Devils’ struggles
United have won major silverware since Ferguson’s departure, but the Premier League title has well and truly eluded the Red Devils since 2013.
Martinez said he wants to carve his own name into the history books and feels that Ferguson’s legendary teams of the past showed the importance of doing that.
How many of Sir Alex Ferguson’s 13 titles were achieved without Man Utd being the OUTRIGHT top scoring team?
Can you name each of them?
“And football is, for me, about that too: put your name there [in the history books],” he added.
“I hope soon that we are in the same moment because I want to achieve big things here.
“It’s really special and I hope soon that this club will go up again.”
United are currently fourth in the Premier League table and the Red Devils are back in Premier League action on 23rd February against Everton at Goodison Park.
