[Saba Sports News] According to British media reports, Manchester United players are unhappy with the club legends’ reckless criticism of them. If Manchester United hopes that the war of words between Lisandro Martínez and club legends Nicky Butt and Paul Scholes will quickly calm down and be forgotten, the club may be disappointed. It is understood that Butt has signed on with a new social media platform called Peek, while Scholes and other Manchester United legends are also in negotiations with the company. The Peek platform aims to provide prominent sports figures with opportunities to express opinions and share in the profits, with content being most effective when it is short and impactful. However, this does not bode well for their already tense relationship with their former club. Before the Manchester derby, Butt and Scholes sparked controversy by mocking Martínez’s height on a podcast. However, during Manchester United’s 2-0 victory over Manchester City, Martínez successfully defended against Erling Haaland and later hit back at the legends’ taunts, stating that those former United players wouldn’t be so bold if they met current players at Old Trafford. In the latest episode of the podcast, Butt responded again, saying he was just joking and hoping Martínez would grow quickly, while Scholes warned Martínez that playing for Manchester United requires a stronger mental resilience.
