Former Manchester United defender Phil Jones seemingly tried to justify Lisandro Martinez’s horror problem within the Crystal Palace recreation yesterday by merely saying that’s how the Argentine approaches the sport as a result of his aggressive fashion.
Watch under as Jones is alongside fellow Sky Sports activities pundit Jamie Redknapp wanting on the Martinez problem, which may have resulted in a purple card and a really critical harm for his opponent if he’d caught the participant…
Redknapp is clearly not impressed with Martinez right here, however Jones ends the clip by saying that that’s simply Martinez’s recreation and that he’s an aggressive participant.
Whereas the 26-year-old is undoubtedly a really aggressive participant and a troublesome tackler, that’s absolutely no excuse for diving in two-footed like he does within the video above.
Defenders will be aggressive, and generally they actually must be, however there’s an artwork to it as properly, and it can’t threat critically injuring different gamers.
Martinez has principally executed properly since becoming a member of Man Utd, however there may be absolutely some room for him to mature a bit as a participant, and he completely has to keep away from one thing like this occurring once more, or he gained’t get as fortunate as he did right here.
